MaxLite has introduced Direct-Lit LED Flat Panels to offer energy-efficient lighting solutions for medical facilities, hospitals, libraries, schools and offices and other institutional and commercial spaces.
The Direct-Lit LED Flat Panels are engineered to substitute fluorescent luminaires. They are suitable for deployment into T-bar grid ceilings and offer superior color rendering with a color rendering index of 85 and lumen output, while reducing maintenance expenditures and time. Their proprietary LED binning assures consistency of uniformed color.

MaxLite offers two models of Direct-Lit LED Flat Panels such as the cool white 5000 K and the warm white 3500 K model. The Direct-Lit LED 1'X4' flat panel consumes merely 45 W, while the Direct-Lit LED 2'X2' flat panel is available in 45 W and 60 W models. The Direct-Lit LED 2'X4' flat panels are 60 W panels.
The panels are completely dimmable and can be used with daylight harvesting systems, timers, motion sensors and building controls. With a power factor of more than 98%, they work on 120-277 V systems. Their operating life is approximately 50,000 h.
The aluminum-made housings and LED back panels offer thermal control and heat sink capabilities. The panels have white polycarbonate-made translucent lens and their compact profile has a length of 3" that includes the control box. They are cETL and ET certified and comply with RoHS.
