70 Watt Square LED Canopy Light | 9100 Lumens | 5000K | 100-277V

Product Overview

This 70 Watt Square LED Canopy Light is designed for exterior covered environments requiring reliable, uniform illumination. Typical installations include gas station canopies and parking garage ceilings where consistent light levels and durability are critical. The fixture operates on 100-277V, delivers 9100 lumens at 5000K, and is suitable for mounting heights commonly found in fueling areas and drive-through canopies.

The fixture is built for surface or pendant mounting and features a compact 9.1-inch square form factor. Its die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens provide impact resistance and weather protection for continuous operation in demanding locations.

Core Performance and Output

This canopy light outputs 9100 lumens at 70 watts, providing an efficacy of 130 lumens per watt. The 5000K color temperature supports high-visibility environments. The 140° beam angle delivers wide, uniform coverage under canopies and overhangs, minimizing shadowing and dark spots.

0-10V dimming is standard for integration with lighting controls. At mounting heights below 9 feet, output may be excessive for some applications. Uniformity may decrease if fixtures are spaced beyond typical canopy grid patterns.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 0-10V dimming for integration with occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting, or centralized lighting control systems. No field-adjustable wattage or CCT options are included. The wide beam distribution is fixed by the polycarbonate lens design.

Control compatibility is limited to 0-10V systems. No onboard motion or daylight sensors are provided.

Longevity and Reliability

The LED driver is rated for 50,000 hours of operation. The fixture is designed for continuous use in covered exterior environments, with minimal maintenance requirements over its service life. The die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens resist corrosion and impact.

Operating temperature range is -40°F to 113°F. The fixture maintains performance in both cold and hot climates typical of outdoor canopies and garages.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from die-cast aluminum with a white finish. The lens is polycarbonate for impact resistance and optical clarity. The fixture is IP65 rated for protection against dust and water jets, suitable for exterior covered installations.

Dimensions are 9.1 inches square by 3.9 inches high. Weight is 6.25 lbs. The fixture supports both surface and pendant mounting methods for flexibility in retrofit or new construction.

Where This Product Fits Best

This canopy light is intended for covered exterior environments requiring uniform, high-output lighting. It is most commonly installed in:

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

IP65 rating and robust construction support use in locations exposed to weather, vehicle exhaust, and frequent cleaning. The fixture is not intended for open parking lots or high-bay indoor environments.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fixture supports both surface and pendant mounting to accommodate existing canopy structures. Installation requires standard line voltage (100-277V) and is compatible with most canopy retrofit and new build conditions. The compact form factor allows for direct replacement of legacy metal halide fixtures without major structural modifications.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic cleaning of the lens and inspection of mounting hardware. The sealed housing and lens reduce the risk of water ingress and debris accumulation. No relamping is required over the rated service life.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 15 feet, depending on canopy design and required light levels. Fixtures are spaced to provide overlapping coverage, often in grid patterns matching canopy support columns or drive lanes. The wide beam angle supports uniform illumination with fewer dark spots.

Higher output allows for increased fixture spacing, but may result in higher glare if installed at lower mounting heights or in confined spaces. Layouts should balance uniformity, glare control, and target light levels for the specific site.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed and IP65 rated. It is eligible for utility rebates where applicable. The operating temperature range supports use in a wide range of climates. A 5-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and performance.

No hazardous location or food safety certifications are included. The fixture is intended for general exterior canopy use only.
