70 Watt Square LED Canopy Light | 9330 Lumens | 3000K / 4000K / 5000K Adjustable | 100-277V | Black Housing

Product Overview

This 70 Watt Square LED Canopy Light is designed for exterior and covered area illumination where uniform, glare-controlled lighting is required. Typical installations include gas station canopies, parking canopies, and drive-through structures. The fixture provides a direct replacement for 250W metal halide units, supporting mounting heights commonly found in commercial canopies and covered entries.

The fixture features selectable color temperature (3000K, 4000K, 5000K) and is compatible with both surface and pendant mounting. Its compact 10 in x 10 in form factor and black die-cast aluminum housing allow for integration into new or retrofit canopy installations.

Core Performance and Output

This canopy light delivers 9330 lumens at 70 watts, achieving an efficacy of 133 lumens per watt. The 90° beam angle provides a wide, uniform distribution suitable for low to mid-height canopy applications. The fixture supports 1-10V dimming for output adjustment and energy management.

Color temperature can be field-selected to match site requirements. At mounting heights below 9 feet, output may be excessive for some entry canopy or walkway applications. Uniformity may decrease if spacing exceeds typical canopy grid patterns.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture includes a field-adjustable color temperature switch, allowing selection between 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K. This supports adaptation to site-specific visual requirements or retrofit matching. Integrated 1-10V dimming enables compatibility with common lighting control systems.

An optional motion sensor is available for occupancy-based control, supporting energy savings in low-traffic periods. No onboard daylight sensor is included. All adjustments are accessible during installation.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 150,000 hours (L70), supporting long-term operation in demanding environments. The die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens are designed for impact resistance and weather exposure.

IP65 ingress protection ensures suitability for wet locations and exterior canopy use. 6kV surge protection is integrated for electrical reliability in exposed installations. The fixture operates in ambient temperatures from -4°F to 122°F.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The housing is constructed from die-cast aluminum with a black finish for corrosion resistance. The polycarbonate lens provides impact protection and maintains optical clarity. The fixture measures 10 in x 10 in x 3 in and weighs 5 lbs, supporting both surface and pendant mounting methods.

All hardware is designed for exterior use. The fixture is UL listed and meets IP65 requirements for dust and water ingress. Power factor is 0.90 with a maximum THD of 20%.

Where This Product Fits Best

This canopy light is intended for exterior covered environments requiring uniform, reliable illumination at low to mid mounting heights. It is 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 wet, exposed, or high-traffic exterior environments. The fixture is not intended for high-bay or open area lighting where higher mounting heights or broader distribution are required.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The fixture supports both surface and pendant mounting, allowing adaptation to canopy deck or structural conditions. All wiring and adjustment points are accessible from below the canopy, minimizing installation time. The compact size allows for direct retrofit of legacy square canopy fixtures.

Routine maintenance is limited to periodic lens cleaning. The polycarbonate lens and sealed housing reduce debris ingress and simplify cleaning. Motion sensor and color temperature adjustments are accessible without fixture removal.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 8 to 15 feet, depending on canopy structure and required light levels. Fixtures are spaced to provide uniform coverage, often following canopy column or grid patterns. For gas station and fueling canopies, spacing is typically 10 to 15 feet on center.

Higher output allows for reduced fixture count in some layouts, but may increase perceived glare at lower mounting heights. Color temperature selection is often set to match site branding or visual comfort requirements.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

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

All components are rated for exterior use and meet relevant safety and performance standards for canopy lighting applications.
