Ruud Lighting’s exclusive NanoOptic™ Provides Superior Light Control

The key to controlled output of super-bright white LEDs is the optical system. RuudLED products use a direct-contact refractor optic called NanoOptic, which sits on the LED to provide maximum light output and optimal light control. These optics are carefully designed via three-dimensional computer models that accurately predict how they will behave. NanoOptic refractors are made of UV-stabilized HID acrylic that is formulated on the basis of decades of field experience with the material.

The design is then tooled and performance-tested by independently verified photometric testing. Once a design is fully optimized and verified, it’s duplicated exactly on every NanoOptic produced.

The NanoOptic refractor minimizes all losses and creates efficiencies much greater than traditional reflectors—up to and exceeding 85%.

RuudLED products complie with IES full cutoff standards and International Dark-Sky Association guidelines, which encourage darker skies through lighting that creates less skyglow.
