DESCRIPTION
The Halo Backlit LED Downlight (BLD) incorporates state of the art
lighting technology to create an ultra-low profile surface mounting
luminaire with the performance and look of a traditional downlight.
BLD6 is designed for installation in many 3-1/2” and 4” round or
octagon junction boxes including pancake boxes. It can also retrofit
in 5” or 6” aperture IC and Non-IC recessed housings. Suitable for
residential or commercial installations.

frame
OPTICS
• Precision engineered optic
provides uniform luminance
from a low profile convex lens
LED
• Backlit LED technology

current driver provides virtually
noise free operation.
• Continuous, flicker-free dimming
from 100% to 5% with select
leading or trailing edge 120V
phase cut dimmers. See dimming
guide for details.
• Dimming to 5% is best assured
using dimmers with low end
trim adjustment. Consult dimmer
manufacturer for compatibility
and conditions of use. (Note
some dimmers require a neutral
