Grote Industries is now shipping its new 61291 LED WhiteLight recessed-mount dome lamp. The lamp has been designed for operation in refrigerated environments with temperatures ranging from 122 deg. F to -40 deg. F.

The lamp delivers a widespread optic pattern for wall-to-wall lighting, Grote said. It is made of one-piece, powder-coated aluminum housing with removable polycarbonate lens.

“Grote remains the undisputed leader in interior lighting for refrigerated transportation and we have a unique understanding of the industry’s needs,” said Chris Cammack, product manager of WhiteLight LED for Grote Industries. “Our new 61291 brings all of the advantages of LED lighting technology to the reefer environment, including a 50,000-hour service rating.”

The lamp’s six, high-output diodes generate approximately 1,000 lumens of light output, comparable to that of fluorescent lamps, but draw only about 63% of the amperage. It features a protected, solid-state circuit board and has no ballast or bulb.

“We anticipate refrigerated fleets and the food logistics industry to be particularly interested in the lamp,” Cammack said. “When you consider all the benefits, LED dome lamps are just the logical choice for any reefer transporting foodstuffs.”
