Saxby’s signature LED tape range

ORION

OrionLED is Saxby’s ever-growing signature tape range, offering a wide variety of options including IP20, IP65, IP67, Flexible ‘S’ shape, COB, RGB, and RGBW reels. Available in 24V or 48V, with power options from low to high, the range also includes warm and cool white options, various LEDs per metre, and 5m to 30m reel lengths. A 3M self-adhesive backing ensures quick installation, and an extensive range of accessories is available to complete any setup.

WELCOME TO ORION SAXBY’S SIGNATURE LED TAPE RANGE

GETTING STARTED

OrionLED from Saxby includes a wide range of options to suit a variety of applications, making it the ideal choice for domestic, commercial, or retail installations.

It is essential to identify the right product to achieve the desired effect, as well as ensuring suitability for the installation environment, so we have put together some key points to support you in selecting the right products for your customer or project.

Orion20 and Orion65 are available in a range of colour temperatures and brightness, with the number in their name relating to their IP rating, allowing you to select the correct level of water protection.

OrionPRO, OrionFLEX AND OrionRGB are all offered at IP20 for indoor use with various features and benefits. OrionRGBW is available in different voltages and IP ratings, whilst OrionPro Neon Flex is fully IP67 rated.

To achieve the desired brightness Orion is available in standard (60 LEDs per metre) and high (120 LEDs per metre) using highly efficient SMD LED (5050 or 2835) and COB LED with very high CRI.

All products are covered by a 3 year warranty (2 years standard + 1 year extension).

WHY CHOOSE ORION FROM SAXBY?

The range is supported by a comprehensive collection of control components including drivers, controllers, and accessories. An extensive series of aluminium extrusions are offered in the Rigel/RigelSLIM range from page 32.

SELECTING THE RIGHT PRODUCT

The following two pages have been created to support wholesalers and electricians in making the right product selection from Saxby’s Orion range. Point of sale and additional literature is also available to Saxby stockists, please speak to your account manager for details.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT DRIVER FOR YOUR ORION LED STRIP LIGHT

Let’s look at an example:

If you would like to use 5m of the OrionPRO 10W/m, 24V LED, you will need to use a driver that has a rating of at least 50W. If the driver’s capacity is higher than the LED strips power draw (for example a 60W driver), you can safely power your Orion LED Tape. If you’re using 48V tape, make sure to use a 48V driver.

Please be aware: You should never use driver with capacity that is smaller than maximum power of LED strip used, as this will damage the Orion LED strip.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER DRAW OF THE FLEXI-STRIP

In our example the Orion LED tape is ”10W/m 5M LED Strip”. The Orion LED strip has a total wattage of 50 Watts, or 10 Watts per meter (10 Watts/meter x 5 meters = 50 Watts)

Please see guide below to determine which driver should be used for different Orion LED strip types and lengths (listed minimum driver capacity required):

WHAT YOU NEED TO CONSIDER BEFORE CHOOSING OUR ORION STRIP

SELECTING THE DESIRED VOLTAGE OF TAPE FOR YOUR PROJECT

Saxby offer both 24V and 48V tape. The higher voltage 48V LED tape allows you to use longer continuous runs without visible voltage drop.

SELECTING THE DESIRED BRIGHTNESS FOR A PROJECT OR INSTALLATION

Lumens is the measurement of brightness as perceived by the human eye. Different projects require a certain amount of brightness to achieve a desired look. For example:

OrionPRO 5m 10W/m will produce 100LM per meter. The higher the lumens, the brighter the effect will be.

SELECTING THE DESIRED COLOUR TEMPERATURE

The Orion LED range offers the following options, 3000K (warm white), 4000K (cool white), 6000K (daylight white), RGB (full colour spectrum) and RGBW (full colour spectrum plus white). The colour of light is measured in degrees Kelvin (K). The temperature rating directly affects what the white light will look like. Your choice of colour temperature will depend on the effect that is required for each project.

COMPARE LED STRIP LENGTH AND NUMBER OF LEDS ON THE STRIP

When comparing common LED densities there are 3 types 30/60/120 LEDs per meter. The total light output of an LED strip is simply the sum of the light output from the individual LEDs on the LED strip. LED density has a direct impact on the total amount of light output, the more LEDs per meter, the more light per meter (when comparing situations where the LED is the same). LED density affects light distribution, because the LEDs are individual “point sources” depending on how they are installed. The individual LEDs on an LED strip may create a “dotted” effect or what is also sometimes called “spotting”. A higher density LED strip will have a lower chance of “spotting” and the individual LEDs cannot be seen.

WHAT DO THE NUMBERS OF THE LED CHIPS MEAN?

The different numbers on the SMD correlate to the different physical dimensions of the chip. The numbers 5050, 3528, 2835, etc. correlate to the size of the chip in millimetres. Some LEDs are brighter than others and some give off more light per watt. Saxby use SMD 5050 and SMD 2835.

COMPARE WATTAGE CONSUMED PER STRIP OF LEDS AND OPERATING VOLTAGE

The wattage will tell us how much power we are consuming while these lights are on and in turn how much the running cost will be at the end of each month. When comparing the different LED strip options be sure to verify if the wattage is given per meter or reel before you buy.

Please note: An LED strip light that uses 24 volts will not work if you purchase a 12 volt driver and may also result in risk of fire. When selecting the driver for you desired strip light, if unsure please seek guidance from a competent electrician.
