SABRE | SBR/SBX

Cleanroom High Bay for Extreme Environments

Building on the success of the Isollux Soffito range, Sabre™ delivers a heavy-duty recessed cleanroom luminaire for food processing and industrial production where continuous rising steam, hydrolytic conditions, elevated ambient temperatures or exceptionally high light outputs exceed the practical operating limits of conventional recessed hygienic luminaires.

Manufactured to order, Sabre is available in standard configurations to simplify upgrades to existing installations, with engineering support for bespoke dimensions, power, material selection and environmental requirements.

Chemical, Steam & Hydrolytic Resistance

Sabre can be configured with materials and sealing systems selected to withstand continuous steam, extreme humidity, hydrolytic stress and aggressive sanitation environments.

Customise to your requirements

Facilities operating at elevated ambient temperatures, requiring high illumination from significant mounting heights, or constrained by existing building structures often exceed the practical capabilities of conventional recessed luminaires.

Sabre can be specified and configured to suit site-specific requirements, including bespoke dimensions, increased power and light output, remote driver topologies and materials selected for task-critical operating environments.

If a standard configuration does not meet your project requirements, our engineering team is on hand to assist with the development of a bespoke solution.

Service Life

Long service life depends on conservative engineering rather than driving components to their limits.

Sabre combines independently verified LM-80 testing, TM-21-21 reported lumen maintenance projections and conservatively operated high-density LED arrays to deliver predictable long-term performance.

L85 > 10 Years 24/7

Isollux XE dual-die LED chipsets are conservatively operated to optimise service life and deliver L80 (B0) >102,000 h within the published operating limits of the specified configuration.

Long - Term Maintenance

Unlike conventional sealed LED luminaires, Sabre's permanent stainless-steel enclosure is designed to remain part of the building throughout the life of the facility. Serviceable LED engines and drivers can then be replaced or upgraded as components age or technology evolves, extending the practical life of the installation while reducing waste, disruption and total cost of ownership.

Optimised Visual Comfort & Safety

Sabre’s high-density LED arrays and diffuse optics eliminate harsh point-light sources and high-intensity reflected glare from white and stainless steel surfaces.

Soft, uniform illumination reduces shadows around complex machinery, improving visibility for safer operation, inspection, cleaning and maintenance.

Colour Rendering Options

CRI 85 and CRI 95 are available as standard, with options up to CRI 97 and custom spectrum control for specialised inspection, production and process requirements.

Product Configurations

The following specifications relate to the standard 600 × 600 mm SBR/SBX configuration.

120W | 18,000lm
150 W | 22,500lm
180 W | 27,000lm
360 W | 54,000lm (Custom Format)

Sabre SBX | Lift-Out LED & Lens Assembly

The LED light engine, lens and retaining frame form a single sealed removable assembly that can be removed in minutes for cleaning or servicing away from the production area.

Ideal where grease, fats or dust progressively reduce light transmission and routine maintenance forms part of the cleaning programme.

Sabre SBR | Fixed Lens Assembly

The lens remains permanently sealed within the stainless steel frame while the LED engine is removed independently from above. The lens is normally cleaned from below and only removed when replacement is required.

Ideal where preserving the room-facing hygienic seal is the priority while maintaining a fully serviceable lighting system.

Common Product Features

The following features relate to both SBR and SBX

EPDM or Bespoke Seals

EPDM sealing systems are standard for most food processing, pharmaceutical and hygienic wash-down applications. Where exposure to specialist chemicals, oils, fuels, solvents or other aggressive process media is anticipated, alternative sealing materials can be specified to suit the application.

Ingress Protection

Sabre provides a minimum IP66 ingress protection, with configurations available up to IP69K on the room-facing side for high-pressure wash-down and sanitation environments.

Lighting Controls

Sabre supports simple dual-circuit switching together with DALI control options for dimming, sensing, tunable white and multi-channel spectrum control.

Emergency Lighting

Options include a 30 W / 90-minute emergency pack, an auxiliary 30 W driver to reduce UPS load, or DALI control to assign selected luminaires to an emergency scene.

Electrical Protection

Sabre features independent SELV drivers, de-rated to 80% of maximum output to reduce component stress and extend service life. Drivers may be remotely mounted up to 300 m from the luminaire where maintenance access is restricted or elevated ambient temperatures require electrical equipment to be located outside the operating environment.

Protection includes:

• Min IP66 Independent SELV drivers
• IP67 Power Connection
• Flicker-Free Output
• Under-Voltage Protection
• Over-Voltage Protection
• Short-Circuit Protection with auto recovery
• Over-Temperature Protection
• Wide Input Range 90–305VAC
• Surge Protection – DM 6kV, CM 10kV
• Driver Class I & Class II hazardous locations
