Entry DescriptionMAGELLAN™ is a new family of large-format, architectural, circular luminaires. Delivering a clean, modern style across a variety of sizes and configurations, Magellan luminaires offer a wide variety of features and aesthetics that provide visual comfort in architectural spaces.
The Magellan family has evolved to include pendants, ceiling-surface, and recessed ceiling luminaires, as well as surface and recessed wall-mounted solutions. These new luminaires are designed to be impeccably clean with no seams or visual disruptions in their circular form. The result is an elegant drum-style luminaire that appears to be carved from one solid form.
Magellan is designed with a focus on delivering the highest quality of lighting performance. Offering from 600 to 48,500 lumens, Magellan can provide soft illumination for an intimate setting or fill large volumes from high above, making it one of the most powerful and versatile indoor architectural luminaires offered today.
Featuring nLight® and nLight AIR control options, Magellan luminaires are simple to specify, design, install, and set up. Unlock network capabilities such as firmware updates, advanced scheduling, remote programming, and BACnet® integration with nLight enabled luminaires. Optional eldoLED® proprietary driver technology creates seamless transitions for flicker-safe deep-dimming.
Sustainability ApproachMagellan offers a sound reducing acoustic solution on the direct plane of the luminaire. Available in 19 colors, the sound absorbing material provides a noise reduction coefficient rating of 0.45 - 0.9 and consists of ½” thick polyester felt that is 100% recyclable. The material is Red List Free.
