The DLC’s Qualified Products List provides a resource for program administrators and designers to determine which lighting products meet established energy efficiency guidelines currently not addressed in the U.S. Department of Energy’s ENERGY STAR program. The DLC strives to ensure that high-quality, energy-efficient lighting design becomes commonplace in all lighting installations. The program is operated by the Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnership and sponsored by numerous utility companies and energy efficiency organizations around the United States and Canada. Fixtures like the Dialight DuroSite High Bay that are included on the DLC’s qualified product list may also be eligible for state and utility energy efficiency program incentives—rebates that can enhance the overall energy and maintenance cost savings of retrofitting existing traditional fixtures with high-efficiency, low-maintenance LED fixtures.  All high bay fixtures on the DesignLights™ qualified products list must meet stringent performance and light output requirements which are verified with LM-79, LM-80 and In-Situ Case Temperature reports by a third party test lab. “The DLC’s qualified products list serves as a valuable set of guidelines to help companies choose the right solid-state lighting products to both save money and meet sustainability goals,” said Roy Burton, Dialight’s Group Chief Executive. “Our DuroSite High Bays have already earned praise from our customers for their energy, cost and maintenance savings and we’re thrilled to have this product recognized with inclusion on this list.” Numerous Fortune 100 companies are already enjoying the benefits of the Dialight DuroSite luminaire, which offers maximum energy savings, reduced maintenance cost and a superior quality of light, while consuming just 150W per unit. For added energy savings, the instant on/off feature eliminates wasteful warm-up time, allowing the lights to be switched off when not needed or equipped with an optional occupancy or motion sensor. The mercury-free, shock- and vibration-resistant fixture offers a power factor of .998 for improved stand-by energy savings. The DuroSite is designed for easy change out from traditional lighting over existing wiring. Dialight Introduces new DuroSite™ Series LED Wallpack Fixture http://www.dialight.com/News/Details/DuroSite_Wallpack Rugged, Low-Profile RoHS-Compliant Fixture Designed to Replace High Pressure Sodium, Metal Halide, Incandescent and Fluorescent Fixtures in Industrial and Commercial Applications. Farmingdale, NJ (August 17, 2010) –  Dialight (LSE: DIA.L), an innovative global leader in LED lighting technology, today introduced its new DuroSite Series LED Wallpack Luminaire offering superior energy savings and long-life performance with dramatically less maintenance than conventional solutions for industrial and commercial applications.  With its low profile and compact design, the powder-coated aluminum wallpack luminaire is fully compliant with all standard ratings and certifications that make it highly suited for stairwells, platforms, exits, walkways, building exteriors, tunnels, subways and other confined or hard-to-access spaces. The fixture is IP66, IP67, IK04, UL1598 (for wet locations) and UL1598A (for marine applications) rated, as well as NEMA 4X and RoHS compliant. Backed by Dialight’s exclusive five year warranty for continuous operation, the DuroSite LED Wallpack also features instant on/off operation, enabling greater operating efficiency and an extended lifespan of more than 10 years, even in the most demanding applications. That means the DuroSite fixture can last up to three times longer than traditional HID fixtures and nearly twice as long as florescent solutions. Rated for input voltage of 100-277 VAC, the DuroSite LED Wallpack fixture offers high luminous efficacy combined with low power consumption. The fixture is available in both 11-watt and 22-watt versions and is completely free of hazardous materials, including mercury, and creates almost no light spill.

Dialight LED Pedestrian Signals Improve Crosswalk Safety in City of Spokane http://www.dialight.com/News/Details/spokane_peds City Leverages $100,000 Federal Highways Grant to Install 132 New Countdown Timers to Meet New MUTCD Requirements Farmingdale, NJ (August 9, 2010) – Dialight (LSE: DIA.L), an innovative global leader in LED lighting technology, announced today that the city of Spokane, Washington has completed the installation of 132 of the company’s ITE-compliant LED pedestrian countdown timers to improve crosswalk safety and comply with the latest requirements in the U.S. Dept. of Transportation Federal Highways Administration’s Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). To complete the project, the city took advantage of a $100,000 Federal Highways Safety Grant to pay for the signals and the installation along Third Avenue from Division to Maple Streets, and at Second and Fourth Avenues on Maple and Walnut Streets. "The timers will effectively improve pedestrian safety along this corridor, which was identified for the upgrade based on historical data on pedestrian and vehicle collisions from the State Department of Transportation,” said Katherine Miller, capital program manager for the city of Spokane. “The new signals are highly visible, and we were quite pleased with Dialight’s quick delivery of the product and ease of installation.” The December 2009 revised MUTCD released by the Federal Highway Administration requires the use of countdown pedestrian signals at all new installations with a pedestrian clearance interval of =7 seconds. While the MUTCD did not require the retrofit of existing pedestrian signals, it does require the conversion to countdown pedestrian signals on the next scheduled replacement of the signal. To achieve early compliance, the city took advantage of the opportunity to use stimulus funds to improve intersection safety for pedestrians and bicyclists. "Dialight’s maintenance-free LED timers are extremely durable and reliable to provide years of safety and service, even in harsh conditions,” said Mike Smith, president of  Advanced Traffic Products, the authorized distributor of Dialight signals who worked on the Spokane installation. “The signals not only improve safety for residents, but also contribute to the city’s ongoing downtown renewal efforts.” For more information about Dialight’s ITE-compliant LED traffic signals, visit www.dialight.com.
