45 Watt Square Canopy Light | 6900 Lumens | 3000K / 4000K / 5000K Adjustable | 100-277V | Black Housing

Product Overview

This 45 Watt Square Canopy Light is designed for low bay exterior and covered area lighting. It delivers 6900 lumens and offers selectable color temperatures of 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K. The fixture is suitable for mounting heights typically found in parking garages, gas station canopies, and drive-through structures. The compact 10-inch square form factor and black die-cast aluminum housing support both surface and pendant mounting methods.

Commonly used as a direct replacement for 250W metal halide canopy fixtures, this LED canopy light is built for continuous operation in demanding environments. The IP65 rating and polycarbonate lens provide protection against dust and water, making it suitable for outdoor and semi-enclosed installations.

Core Performance and Output

This fixture produces 6900 lumens at 45 watts, achieving an efficacy of 153 lumens per watt. The 90° beam angle provides uniform coverage for canopy and covered area applications. Color temperature can be set to 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K to match site requirements. The fixture operates on 100-277V input and supports 1-10V dimming for integration with occupancy or daylight controls.

At mounting heights between 8 and 15 feet, the output is well-matched for parking canopies and fueling areas. Output may be excessive for low-clearance installations under 8 feet. Wider spacing or higher mounting heights may reduce uniformity at the edges of coverage zones.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture includes a field-selectable color temperature switch, allowing adjustment between 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K during installation or maintenance. 1-10V dimming is standard, supporting integration with compatible controls for energy management or occupancy response.

An optional motion sensor is available for adaptive lighting control in parking and drive-through environments. No onboard daylight sensor is included. All adjustments are accessible without fixture removal.

Longevity and Reliability

This canopy light is rated for 150,000 hours (L70) of operation. The die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens are designed for continuous use in outdoor and semi-enclosed environments. The fixture includes 6kV surge protection to guard against electrical transients.

Operating temperature range is -4°F to 122°F. The fixture is suitable for year-round exterior use in most climates. No routine re-lamping is required over the rated life.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The fixture measures 10 inches square by 3 inches high and weighs 5 pounds. The housing is die-cast aluminum with a black finish. The lens is impact-resistant polycarbonate. All hardware is corrosion-resistant for outdoor use.

IP65 ingress protection ensures resistance to dust and water jets. The fixture is UL listed. Mounting options include surface and pendant configurations. All wiring and adjustment points are accessible from below the canopy.

Where This Product Fits Best

This canopy light is intended for covered exterior environments requiring uniform, glare-controlled illumination. It is most often installed in commercial and institutional settings where reliability and low maintenance are priorities.

• gas station lighting
• fueling area lighting
• parking canopy lighting
• drive-through canopy lighting
• covered walkway lighting
• loading canopy lighting
• entry canopy lighting
• commercial overhang lighting

The fixture is suitable for damp and wet locations, including open-air canopies and partially enclosed structures. It is not intended for hazardous, food processing, or high-temperature environments.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Surface and pendant mounting options are supported. The fixture is designed for direct mounting to canopy decks or pendant stems. All wiring connections are made within the fixture housing. The compact size allows for retrofit into existing canopy openings or new installations.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic cleaning of the lens and inspection of seals. The polycarbonate lens resists yellowing and impact. No lamp or driver replacement is required during the rated service life. All adjustments, including color temperature selection, are accessible without removing the fixture from the canopy.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 15 feet, depending on canopy clearance and required light levels. Fixtures are spaced to provide uniform coverage, with spacing patterns determined by mounting height and site geometry. In parking garage and fueling area applications, fixtures are often installed in a grid or linear pattern to minimize shadowing.

Higher output allows for wider spacing and reduced fixture count, but may increase perceived brightness or glare if installed at low mounting heights. Motion sensor integration is common in drive-through and parking applications to reduce energy use during periods of low activity.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed and IP65 rated. It includes 6kV surge protection. The product is eligible for utility rebates where applicable. A 5-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and performance.

All components are rated for continuous operation in outdoor and damp environments. No hazardous location or food processing certifications are included.
