Frequently asked questions
Common questions about ETI from 3G Electric.
What are the typical applications for ETI high bay lights like the ERHB series?
ETI high bay lights, such as the ERHB-15L, ERHB-22L, and ERHB-36L models, are designed for indoor spaces with ceiling heights between 15 ft and 40 ft. Common applications include warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing plants, gymnasiums, and large retail stores. These fixtures provide wide distribution patterns and lumen outputs from 15,000 lm to 36,000 lm, making them suitable for replacing metal halide or high-pressure sodium lamps in the 750W to 3600W range. They operate on 120-277V AC and offer selectable color temperatures (3500K, 4000K, 5000K) to match existing lighting schemes.
Are ETI fire-rated downlights compliant with building codes for ceiling penetrations?
Yes, ETI fire-rated downlights, such as the FRCDL-3IN and FRCDL-4IN models, are designed to maintain the fire-resistance rating of a ceiling assembly when installed. These fixtures are intended for use in fire-rated ceilings where a penetration is required for lighting. They are low-profile, canless designs that fit into 3-inch or 4-inch openings and provide 500 lm or 800 lm respectively. The fire rating helps prevent the spread of flames and hot gases through the ceiling, which is a common requirement in commercial and multi-family residential buildings. Always verify local code requirements for specific applications.
What color temperature options are available for ETI LED downlights?
ETI LED downlights, including the trim modules with nightlight (SKU 792KL6) and fire-rated models (FRCDL series), offer selectable color temperatures: 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K. This allows the installer to choose a correlated color temperature (CCT) that suits the space—2700K for warm ambient lighting, 4000K for neutral commercial lighting, or 5000K for daylight-like illumination. The selection is typically made via a switch on the fixture before installation. High bay models (ERHB series) offer 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K options.
Can ETI spin lights be used as direct replacements for existing ceiling fixtures?
Yes, ETI spin lights, such as the 7-inch Spin Light (SKU 856MG2) and the 11-inch LED Flush Mount Light (SKU 400H31), are designed for retrofit applications. They include a SPEEDMOUNT® bracket that simplifies installation into standard ceiling openings. These fixtures are rated for 120V AC and provide 830 lm (7-inch) or 1,600 lm (11-inch) with selectable color temperatures (3000K, 4000K, 5000K). The 7-inch model includes a pull chain for manual control. They are suitable for replacing older incandescent or CFL flush-mount fixtures in residential or commercial settings.
What is the input voltage range for ETI high bay lights?
ETI high bay lights in the ERHB series are designed to operate on a universal input voltage of 120 to 277V AC. This allows them to be used in facilities with different electrical systems, including standard 120V residential circuits and 277V commercial lighting circuits common in North America. The fixtures are rated for 100W, 150W, or 240W depending on the model, and they are dimmable. Always confirm the specific voltage requirements of your installation before purchase.
