ELG LED Parking Garage
Generation 2

The Emco ELG luminaire is designed to take full advantage of the benefits of LEDs while meeting the unique challenges of parking garage applications.

The heart of the ELG is its high-performance optical system, which was designed expressly for parking structures. The system utilizes an integral array of long-lasting, energy-efficient LEDs oriented to achieve an IES Type V distribution with full cutoff and consistent uniformity of illumination.

The result is uncompromising performance and minimal light trespass, creating a safe environment for vehicles and pedestrians alike. Aided by an integral thermal control system, the LED arrays carry an L70 rating of up to 100,000 hours or more, minimizing the hassle and expense of maintenance. Combined with a rugged die cast aluminum housing that will stand up to the harshest conditions, its clear that the Emco ELG luminaire is a new standard for visibility, efficiency and durability in the parking garage environment.

Motion Response and Dimming
Greater energy savings are realized by capitalizing on the "instant-on" and dimming ability of LEDs. The ELG offers a Motion Response option that reduces power and light output by 80% when an area is unoccuped for more than five minutes. Additional dimming options can be based on time of day, ambient light, or any other control parameters desired (actual dimming system supplied by others).

Designed for Easy Retrofit
The ELG mounting design is notable because it permits a simple retrofit at existing parking garages that utilize the Philips Gardco GP1 luminaire and were installed with the same Quick Mount Plate system. Simply swap out the GP1 for exceptional illumination and maximum energy savings with the ELG luminaire.

You may qualify for significant tax savings by utilizing the new ELG. Parking garages qualify as Interior spacings under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. For more information, visit http://www.lightingtaxdeduction.org/tax_deduction.html
