The Gimbal recessed spotlight is a compact, high-precision swivel luminaire with a cardanic suspension for precise accent lighting and very shallow recess depths. It is designed for differentiated lighting design in retail, museums and public buildings where exact beam alignment and high-contrast presentation of objects are required.
Special features- Oval flood freely rotatable: ERCO Spherolit oval flood lens can be rotated 360° to align lighting to objects.
- Cardanic suspension: permits very precise adjustment of the light beam, especially effective with high ceilings.
- Covered or flush mounting detail: recessed luminaires have overlapping installation details; flush mounting rings available as accessories.
- Shallow recess depth: compact design developed for tight installation situations while maintaining high quality of light.
Product descriptionThe Gimbal principle transfers traditional gimbal suspension to modern LED lighting, offering a highly precise swivel mechanism in a compact design. Multiple sizes and wattages with a broad range of light distributions make Gimbal suitable as a system for accent lighting and object emphasis. Its visible technoid appearance in the ceiling fits retail, museum and public interior projects.
