Major Benefits of the Aries UFO LED High Bay
Direct HID Replacement With Major Energy Savings
This fixture is engineered as a direct replacement for 750W to 1000W metal halide and HID fixtures, delivering up to 38,400 lumens at 240W. That's roughly a 70% to 75% reduction in energy use for equivalent or better light output, with no warm-up time, no lumen depreciation curve to plan around, and no ballast to fail. For facilities running fixtures 12 to 24 hours a day, the payback math is significant.
3-in-1 Optic With Selectable Beam Angle
The optical system supports three beam angles (60°, 80°, and 100°) selectable on the fixture itself. Narrower beams concentrate light for taller ceilings or aisle-focused applications. Wider beams spread light evenly for lower mounting heights or open floor plans. That flexibility means one SKU works in multiple project conditions without re-spec'ing fixtures.
160 Lumens Per Watt With DLC Premium
At 160 LM/W efficacy and DLC Premium listing, this is among the most efficient high bays in its class. DLC Premium qualifies the fixture for the highest tier of utility rebate programs, which, on a multi-fixture warehouse retrofit, can translate to meaningful incentive payments. Combined with the energy savings over HID, the rebate stack accelerates payback considerably.
IP65 Rated for Tough Environments
The IP65 rating means the fixture is dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction, making it suitable for unconditioned warehouses, food processing facilities with washdown protocols, dusty manufacturing environments, and outdoor covered applications such as loading docks.
Multiple Reflector and Sensor Options
Beyond the no-reflector configuration, the fixture supports four reflector types (prismatic, aluminum, black aluminum, white aluminum) with or without a conical bottom lens, allowing designers to tune the light output for glare control or aesthetic match. Sensor options include PIR, microwave, and WareSense Blue Bluetooth, which is Warehouse Lighting's gateway-free Bluetooth mesh control system for zoned scheduling and group control across multiple fixtures.
