KENOSHA, Wis., Aug. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Lighting the Way in Cleanroom and Behavioral Health Spaces
Kenall's new SimpleSeal CSSGI and MedMaster BHRT cleanroom and behavioral health luminaires have been selected for inclusion in the 2024 Illumination Engineering Society (IES) Progress Report. The IES Progress Committee is committed to "keeping in touch with developments in the art and science of lighting throughout the world and preparing a yearly review of achievements for the Illuminating Engineering Society. Acceptance is based on an impartial judging process used by the committee to evaluate each submission on its uniqueness, innovation and significance to the lighting industry."
Kenall's new SimpleSeal™ CSSGI is suitable for ISO 5-8 spaces, making it ideal for a wide range of needs in cleanroom and clean space environments. Featuring an edge-lit light engine, its design allows for minimal intrusion into the plenum space (1.7" depth) without compromising uniform lighting across the lens. The CSSGI was designed with access to the internal housing and driver when installed, making it a highly serviceable fixture. Available in a 'Buy American Act' compliant version, this luminaire is ideal for laboratories, food processing plants, pharmacies, pharmaceutical manufacturing, research centers and more.
"At just 1.7" in depth, Kenall is excited to offer the lowest profile cleanroom fixture available on the market for use in ISO 5-8 rated spaces. We are confident the fixture's uniform appearance, combined with the ability to service it from the room side, will satisfy both the aesthetic and operational requirements of conscientious cleanroom specifiers," said Gary Lalla, product manager.
Designed for behavioral health spaces, Kenall's new BHRT is ligature-resistant with a full, backlit LED array and high diffusion lens, providing uniform light levels. It features continuous lens retention and tamper-resistant fasteners for ligature prevention and meets the patient safety standards of the New York State Office of Mental Health for use in behavioral health settings. It is the only 24" Behavioral Health Round Troffer on the market to offer IP- and NSF-ratings, as well as an Indigo-Clean visible light disinfection technology option. It is also available with an ambient/exam, multi-function lamping option for over-the-bed applications (BHAERT).
Patricia Rizzo, Kenall's senior healthcare product marketing manager, said, "As a manufacturer offering the most behavioral health light fixtures approved by the New York State Office of Mental Health, Kenall is pleased to add the BHRT to our long list of approved products. Kenall has established an unparalleled position in behavioral health lighting by understanding the unique needs of these challenging environments. Our new 24" behavioral health round troffer is no exception, featuring an elegant, contoured shape, certified listings, and innovative tunable white and Indigo-Clean disinfecting technology options to add health and wellness benefits beyond standard ambient light."
Kenall is proud to be acknowledged by this esteemed group of IES professionals for the valuable lighting contribution the new CSSGI and BHRT series' make in cleanroom and behavioral health settings, respectively.
