CONSTRUCTION
M4R - 95% Reflective Specular Aluminum louvers
combine glare control and performance with a high
tech aesthetic.
END CAPS
HEP - High efficiency specular parabolic louvers
maximize downlight for enhanced efficiency where
maximum light output is the primary concern.
Extruded aluminum direct-indirect housing includes
typical recycled content of 25-30%.
Die cast flat end caps for standard lamp configuration.
Both end caps feature silicone gasket to eliminate light
leak, see Light Seal. Ships installed on fixture.

LIGHT SEAL
Housing unions between all joints include upper
formed light seal and aligner connectors to block light.
End of row and single units feature unique optimized
V-0 closed cell silicone gasket light seal at joints
between extruded housing and die cast end cap.
Secure, simple housing connections ensure row
continuity. Standard lamp configuration features
patent pending Ready Connect system for end cap
connections.
MOUNTING
ELECTRICAL

Matte White powder coat standard for end caps and
housing. Zet Silver and additional colors and finishes
optional.
WCB – White Cross Baffle emphasizes linearity with a
crisp, clean bladed appearance.
MA - Matte anodized louvers incorporate an attractive
but subtle grain pattern which minimizes the visibility
of fingerprints and construction dust without sacrifice
to aesthetic qualities.

OA - Opal Acrylic lens emphasizes the narrow
rectilinear shape by creating a pleasant glow of white
along the underside of the housing.
5"
Uplight is open and free of shielding to allow maximum
efficiency.
A wide range of symmetric distributions include
combinations of uplight and downlight using one or
more lamps in either the indirect or direct portion and
combined with many types of downlight shielding.
See ordering guide for additional options. Number of
lamps in cross section will determine which options are
available. Note: Asymmetric downlight louver is also
available and shown on MDIA CM specification sheet.
Shielding is provided for single or continuous row.
Options match across entire Microlyne® family. Please
note: lamps may have visible socket shadow.
