QTL

Legrand's lighting control brand Vantage has added QTL, formally Q-Tran, to its growing lighting fixture alliance. QTL has been a leading innovator in the architectural lighting industry for over 30 years. Established with a simple goal of providing a superior solution for powering low-voltage lighting, QTL provides the highest quality linear LED light and power solutions. Joining the alliance ensures that the company's lighting solutions pair seamlessly with Vantage's lighting control to offer a comprehensive lighting design and user experience.

“The lighting process is one of partnership,” said Cindy Vera RedDoor, Business Development Programs Manager at QTL. “Joining the Vantage lighting fixture alliance ensures that designers and integrators not only can confidently select a high-quality lighting solution but also a high-quality control system that will bring to life the full and perfect vision of the project.”

The collaboration pairs QTL's high-quality LED lighting solutions with Vantage's LHUMAN Human Centric Lighting system. LHUMAN enables the widest selection of tunable fixtures to be used in a lighting system and provides the controllable profiles needed to create lighting scenes with precise color temperature, from fixture to fixture, for the task at hand — from productivity to relaxation or to replicate natural lighting indoors. With LHUMAN's KolorTune™ tunable profiles, available within Vantage's Design Center software, designers and integrators can provide clients with a smart lighting design where circadian cycles play out over the day effortlessly. To create these profiles, Vantage performs a thorough analysis of the color-tuning ability of the lighting fixtures using professional metering equipment, which guarantees performance and ease of integration.

"We continue to realize Vantage’s mission of ensuring the greatest freedom of design by partnering with leading lighting manufacturers, so together, we can help customers realize their vision," said Richard Laliberty, Product Marketing Manager, Shading and Residential Controls, Legrand North America. "QTL is a trusted manufacturer of LED architectural solutions that designers and integrators trust will work seamlessly with their Vantage control system."

Q-Tran, a leading innovator in the architectural lighting industry, proudly announces the successful completion of its first acquisition, Excelsior Lighting Inc. Based in Fresno, California, Excelsior Lighting is a specification-grade landscape and architectural exterior lighting manufacturer. A trusted lighting staple for renowned landscape lighting designers, Excelsior has been recognized for their exceptional quality and attention to detail.

Founded and led by Jerry Carter, Excelsior Lighting brings over two decades of expertise in manufacturing landscape lighting products.

Gean Tremaine, CEO of Q-Tran, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, stating, “Excelsior Lighting’s reputation for excellence and innovation aligns seamlessly with our values. When we started talking to Jerry, I was blown away by how closely his company’s values aligned with ours. Quality, partnership, innovation, and integrity are part of everything they do. The fixtures have a 10-year warranty, making them sustainable. They share our philosophy of offering superior durability and performance.”

Excelsior products complement Q-Tran’s award-winning Q-Scape system which includes the Q-VAULT enclosure, Q-SET power supply family, Q-WIRE and Q-CLICK accessories, and IP67 encapsulated fixtures.

John Tremaine, founder of Q-Tran, explained, “We’ve been selling the Q-Scape system for over 15 years. Q-Scape won innovation awards in 2008 and remains the gold standard landscape power supply system in the market. The Q-VAULT and Q-SET products have performed after going through hurricanes and wildfires, which is a testament to their quality. Our IP67 rigid encapsulated fixtures and flexible Q-CAP encapsulated fixtures have been used in countless amazing exterior projects. Now we’ll have a full assortment of point source lighting to complete the offering.”

Initially, Excelsior will continue to operate independently without any disruption in providing products or services to customers. In the near future, Q-Tran will start to offer the Excelsior product through their existing rep network and will incorporate the product into the Q-Tran website and cut sheets. The company’s long-term strategy is to continuously innovate their exterior and landscape lighting products though product features and additions.

Additionally, in order to support Q-Tran customers with specifying Excelsior products, Lezlie “Z” Johannessen has joined Q-Tran in the role of Landscape National Sales Manager.

“After 30 years in different roles within premier lighting companies, I’m ecstatic to be returning to my ‘happy place’ in the magical world of landscape lighting,” Z shares.

Z holds a BFA in Design and Architecture from the University of Art in San Francisco and started her lighting career working with industry icon Jan Moyer, gaining extensive hands-on knowledge of the world of landscape lighting and illustrating The Landscape Lighting Book. Since then, she’s held positions in both the specification and manufacturing sides of lighting, giving her a complete understanding of the needs of the market. Z has also been actively involved in the International Landscape Lighting Institute as Student/Mentor and Presenter. In her new role, she’s excited to be a part of taking the high-quality Excelsior product to the next level by educating and supporting agents, forging relationships with key specifiers, and contributing to product innovations.

Q-Tran, a leading manufacturer of high-quality lighting solutions, is excited to offer a perimeter fixture that delivers superior performance, customization, and easy installation in a compact design. Ideal for shallow plenum spaces, PERI is compatible with multiple ceiling types, and its modular assembly allows the housing to be installed early with the light module snapped in after finishing work is complete.

PERI offers a range of advanced lighting solutions that boast exceptional performance and versatility. It delivers up to 1000 lm/ft at 90+ CRI, and offers multiple optical and glare reduction options to ensure maximum functionality. The custom grazer optical lens is perfect for wall grazing applications, while the asymmetrical optical lens is ideal for providing uniform light distribution across the floor. PERI’s modular assembly features a diffused or prismatic lens that can be extended over long lengths, resulting in a nearly seamless lens and uninterrupted illumination.

Modular assembly consists of pre-mounted bracket and snap in lighting fixture, allowing contractors to rough in the main housing without any concern with damaging the light source, and providing flexibility in the scheduling of installation. The modular design allows for effortless installation, with the housing mounted on a pre-mounted wall bracket early in construction, and the light engine snapping in after rough-in. This feature ensures that contractors can rough in the primary housing without any concern about damaging the light source. Moreover, pre-fabricated corner joints provide installers with a simple and effective tool for transitioning from wall to wall. PERI’s drivers are mountable on the top or side of the housing, giving flexibility for power feed locations.

PERI’s constant current LEDs are capable of delivering more lumens per watt than low-voltage strips. More importantly, constant current LEDs provide consistent lighting performance with little light loss over longer lengths. Tremaine notes, “PERI is designed with our customers’ needs in mind. We understand that shallow plenum spaces and multiple ceiling types can present challenges for traditional perimeter fixtures. PERI’s compact design and integral driver make it a versatile and powerful solution that can be customized to meet specific lighting needs.”
