ERCO

As an integral element of architecture, light connects buildings to their context. It guides users seamlessly from outside to inside, contributing to a coherent narrative. Designers seek holistically designed lighting tools to achieve this effect. The expanded Iku downlight range by ERCO meets these demands for both new buildings and renovations: offering luminaires for indoor and outdoor use, in recessed and surface-mounted versions, as well as track-mounted downlights.

Modern architectural and urban planning concepts increasingly blur the boundaries between inside and outside, deeply integrating a building's spatial context. Design and usage processes follow a unified story, and lighting should also accompany users consistently, offering a holistic architectural experience. This is accomplished with lighting solutions conceived as holistic systems from the outset - such as ERCO's Iku downlight range. It blends the philosophy of perception-oriented lighting with exceptional energy efficiency, providing tools for almost any application: The existing Iku recessed ceiling luminaires and track downlights have been joined by new surface-mounted ceiling luminaires for interiors and recessed and surface-mounted ceiling luminaires for exteriors.

System design - the Iku advantage​

This comprehensive system design range offers designers significant benefits: High-quality light, uniform light distributions and matching light colours are available across all applications. Standardised digital interfaces ensure seamless integration. ERCO lighting consultants provide premium service throughout the construction process. This applies to both new buildings and renovations, thanks to the easy installation of the new Iku surface-mounted luminaires.

Universal and efficient: Iku indoor surface-mounted luminaires​

Ideal for rooms with solid ceilings or for straightforward modernisation projects, Iku surface-mounted luminaires deliver economic ambient lighting with wide or oval beam distributions. They are particularly suitable for circulation areas like hallways, staircases and foyers. Efficient Iku lens optics allow for greater luminaire spacing without compromising visual comfort. Three sizes and adjustable lumen packages ranging from 615 to 6192 lm enable tailored lighting solutions.

Withstanding the elements: Iku outdoor luminaires​

Iku outdoor recessed and surface-mounted luminaires maintain exceptional light quality even under harsh conditions like moisture or dust. Featuring IP65 protection and corrosion-resistant materials, they are designed for long-term durability, in line with ERCO's Lighting Durability philosophy, which aims for a minimum service life of 20 years.

Like their indoor counterparts, Iku outdoor versions adhere to the "AAA" formula - Architecture, Activity, Atmosphere - offering downlight characteristics wide, extra-wide and oval flood distributions, and supplementing horizontal ambient lighting with vertical illuminance levels that are key to visual perception, such as on wall surfaces or facades.

Tunable White and Casambi are also available in the range​

The AAA formula also incorporates digital connectivity and dynamic light colours for creating the perfect ambiance at any time of day or night. Bluetooth Casambi and Tunable White are available for the new luminaire families, with the Iku range delivering visual comfort, smart dimming and high-performance vertical lighting indoors and outdoors. Iku recessed luminaires embody the "light instead of luminaires" principle, while the surface-mounted versions allow up to 10,000 custom colours via the "ERCO individual" service to add design accents.

We believe in the magic of good lighting. But how do we create this magic? Quinta recessed spotlights go just as well with Quintessence or Atrium downlights as Eclipse or Uniscan spotlights. Quinta has the same mounting rings as the downlights and the same low brightness lenses as the spotlights, thus providing quality of light and visual comfort at the highest levels. In this way, integrated general lighting, accent lighting and wallwashing can be elegantly realized throughout, for example in lobbies or in the café of a museum.

Good architectural lighting puts the focus on people and their visual tasks. This presupposes precise light control. With ERCO low brightness lenses, this precise light also becomes magical. While the light emission surface in the ceiling remains almost invisible, Quinta projects its light point-precisely onto the target surface. For even better visual comfort, high-contrast accents and perfectly illuminated walls. Because light is not just light.

Low brightness technology: Magical light from the ceiling

• Magical appearance thanks to a uniform light emission surface
• The optical cut-off up to 40° achieves maximum visual comfort and glare-free lighting enjoyment
• Precise distributions for point-precise accentuation, with no spill light

Changing light distributions
Quinta has different distributions that you can change in next to no time. This way, your lighting concept remains future-proof: switch between the distributions without tools.

Forwards, backwards, pan and tilt
To enable you to precisely align the light, for example with new exhibitions or changed visual tasks, Quinta can be rotated through 360° and swivelled through 30°.

Modeling with filters
Even more design flexibility with accessories: model the spectrum and distribution with filters and soft focus lenses.

Simple mounting, minimalist look
Quinta comes with a covered mounting detail that can be fitted without tools. Mounting rings (available as accessories) enable flush ceiling installation for a particularly discreet ceiling appearance.

Adapt light with accessories
Recessed spotlights have never been so versatile. Modulate the light distribution by changing the lens or combining it with filters and anti-glare elements.

Control made simple
You can easily switch and control Quinta via Casambi Bluetooth. In addition, light control with 0-10V is possible.

From accent lighting with 5° narrow spot and elongated 19° x 63° oval flood light beams to perfect wallwashing with wallwash lenses, a total of eight different distributions are available, all of which, apart from narrow spot, can be changed without tools.

More than just a recessed spotlight. Quinta is the multitool in the ceiling. Four sizes from 4 7/16" (113mm) diameter, interchangeable distributions and additional filters provide suitable light for any of your lighting tasks. Thanks to the pan-and-tilt luminaire head, you can always precisely align the light.
