450 Watt LED Shoebox Area Light | 58500 Lumens | Type 3 | 5000K | 100V-277V or 277V-480V

Product Overview

This 450 watt LED shoebox area light delivers 58,500 lumens at 130 lumens per watt with a Type 3 distribution pattern. The fixture operates on either 100V-277V or 277V-480V input, covering standard commercial and industrial voltage ranges. Output is fixed at 5000K with a CRI of 70+.

The die-cast aluminum housing measures 36 inches long by 13 inches wide by 3.7 inches high and weighs 25 pounds. The fixture is finished in bronze and uses a polycarbonate lens. This unit replaces 1000 watt or 1500 watt metal halide fixtures.

Where This Product Fits Best

The Type 3 optic produces a forward-throw pattern suited for roadways, pathways, and parking areas where light needs to project outward from the pole rather than directly below it. This distribution works well along linear spaces where fixtures are mounted at the edge of the area being lit.

With an EPA rating of 2.5, this fixture presents moderate wind load. Pole selection and foundation design should account for this rating along with local wind speed requirements. The IP65 rating allows installation in outdoor locations exposed to rain, dust, and washdown conditions.

Performance and Functional Considerations

At 58,500 lumens, this fixture provides output appropriate for large-scale area lighting where high mounting heights or wide spacing require substantial light levels. The 130 lumens per watt efficacy reflects the ratio of output to power consumption at full operation.

The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for integration with external controls or building management systems. Power factor is rated at 0.9 with THD at 15%, and the fixture operates on 50-60Hz input. Rated lifespan is 50,000 hours at L70.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Three mounting configurations are available: arm mount, slip fitter, and trunnion. The appropriate configuration depends on pole type and existing infrastructure. At 25 pounds, the fixture requires hardware and mounting points rated for that load plus anticipated wind and ice conditions.

The dual voltage range options allow installation across different service voltages without transformer requirements when the correct model is selected. Verify site voltage before installation to confirm compatibility with the fixture''s input range.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Once installed, the fixture operates at full output unless connected to a 1-10V dimming signal. Facilities using external photocells, timers, or building automation systems can reduce output during off-peak hours or based on ambient light conditions.

The bronze finish is typical for municipal, campus, and commercial environments where fixture appearance is a consideration. The polycarbonate lens provides impact resistance compared to glass while maintaining optical clarity for the Type 3 distribution.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed and rebate eligible. The IP65 rating means the fixture is protected against dust ingress and water jets from any direction.

LED Lighting Supply provides a 5-year warranty on this fixture.
