Design

  • Minimalist and uncluttered design with high flexibility
      
  • Perfect combination of pinpoint accent lighting and wide-area illumination
      
  • Special focus is placed on the exhibits, and the effects they create are enhanced by lighting and architecture
       
  • ARCOS LED – a further development of the conventional model, available with a variety of accessories
       
  • Thanks to sophisticated lighting technology, the most varied objects can be set perfectly centre stage
       
  • UV- and IR-free light is gentle on exhibits
      
  • Considerable reduction in energy consumption, compared to the conventional generation, due to the use of innovative LED technology

Sustainable technology, compact size

1. Design & functions
 
ARCOS Xpert perfectly combines design and functions. Like its conventional predecessor, the LED spotlight system blends harmoniously into a variety of environments. True to Zumtobel’s credo “tried-and-tested design, new technology”, the new generation’s appearance has remained unchanged, so that the LED version can easily be combined with conventional ARCOS lighting solutions. ARCOS Xpert provides maximum flexibility – due to a variety of additional functions:
 
  • Spotlight can be locked into position
  • Spotlight is dimmable (at the luminaire or via DALI)
  • Rotating attachment holder and encoded lens
  • Cool touch function
  • Holder suitable for a large range of accessories
2. Optical system
 
A combination of specially shaped polycarbonate reflectors and selected lens optics that is perfectly matched to the LED module ensures excellent lighting quality: the ARCOS Xpert LED spotlight cannot fail to impress thanks to its excellent glare control (no light source visible) and uniform high-precision light distribution. The high level of luminous intensity is focussed in the centre and softly decreases towards the edges – another characteristic feature of ARCOS Xpert adding to its excellent lighting quality.
3. The LED light source
 
Due to its compact size, the innovative LED module is ideal for accent lighting. In addition, it boasts excellent colour rendering
(Ra 94 at light colour 930) and tight colour tolerances (2-step MacAdam). Moreover, the UV and IR-free light is gentle on the exhibits and prevents the colours from fading. As a result, the ARCOS Xpert LED spotlight fascinates with superior lighting quality.
4. Passive cooling
 
The level of lighting quality achieved in an application depends on optimum thermal management. The high-power ARCOS Xpert LED spotlight boasts an intelligent passive cooling system allowing for luminous flux and service life to remain at a constantly high level. In addition, due to the cooling system’s innovative design, no openings are required in the housing. Like its conventional predecessor, the LED spotlight’s converter box also features a cool touch function: thus, ARCOS Xpert spotlights can be individually adjusted to changed situations at any time.

Sustainable technology, high light output

1. Design & functions

The only visible difference between ARCOS 3 xpert and ARCOS 2 xpert is the former's slightly larger diameter – ideal for combining both sizes in one room. That's not all: the consistently designed ARCOS product range with its various models and lumen packages is able to meet a variety of lighting tasks in museums and art galleries, while perfectly catering for various ceiling heights and lighting distances.
With illuminance levels of up to 2000 lm, ARCOS 3 provides perfect accent lighting from great heights.
This extremely high flexibility is based on multiple additional functions:
  
  • Spotlight can be locked into position
  • Spotlight is dimmable (at luminaire or via DALI)
  • Rotating attachment holder and encoded lens
  • Cool touch function
  • Holder suitable for a wide range of accessories
2. The optical system

In addition to louvre optics such as ring louvre or honeycomb mesh, a number of reflectors and special films are available for ARCOS xpert. By combining them, light control, glare limitation and lighting effects can be designed as required. The extremely uniform lighting cone is supplemented by beam angles ranging from 8° (superspot) to 40° (wideflood). Using oval or rectangular lenses, the shape of the lighting cones can be modified.
3. The LED light source

The innovative LED module ensures perfect accent lighting: at colour temperatures of both 3000 K and 4000 K, the spotlight achieves an excellent colour rendering of Ra 98 in all colour spectrums, combined with extra-tight colour tolerance of 1x2-step MacAdam. With an outstanding R9 level of 98, ARCOS LED spotlights meet the highest requirements placed on museum lighting.
4. Passive cooling
 
The higher the lumen package, the higher the requirements placed on thermal management. Despite its high output, the designers managed to provide the ARCOS xpert high-performance LED spotlight with an intelligent passive cooling system. Thus, the housing does not need any ventilation slots, although it is ensured that the spotlight achieves maximum luminous flux and has an extremely long service life. Similar to other sizes, the LED spotlight's converter box features a cool touch function: thus, ARCOS xpert 3 spotlights can be re-adjusted to changed situations at any time.

Accentuated Wallwasher

1. Design & function
 
ARCOS 3 xpert liteCarve® acts as a wallwasher, but is really a spotlight. This makes it possible to set accents as well as illuminate vertical surfaces using a visually consistent lighting solution. In this way, ARCOS xpert fulfils the desires of many architects for different lighting effects for unique designs. In addition to all the functional advantages offered by a dimmable and lockable spotlight with a cool touch function, ARCOS 3 xpert liteCarve® has, with its light head that can be rotated or pivoted, the advantage of flexibility compared to linear wallwashers.
2. The LED light source
 
With an outstanding colour rendering of Ra 98 and the super-tight colour tolerance of 1x2-step MacAdam, the innovative Xicato Artist LED module guarantees a consistently high light quality. The liteCarve® spotlight is an ideal member of the ARCOS xpert product group, presenting itself as the perfect solution for holistic lighting concepts.
3. & 4. The optical system
 
The patented liteCarve® reflector technology is an antidote to the rigid system of existing lighting categories. Why? Because for the first time, a spotlight is able to perfectly illuminate vertical surfaces. This is done by combining a special lens with the unique freeform reflector, which directs all the light from the principal LED point light source, focusing it onto the vertical surfaces.
