Product Overview
The Sylvania LED/RT8/8000/840 is an eight-inch LED recessed downlight retrofit kit built to replace existing CFL pin-base lamps or, in the case of the 8000lm configuration, HPS/MH lamps in standard 8" recessed mounting frames. It installs as a direct retrofit using the included metal conduit adaptor, with no separate housing replacement required in most applications.
This 92W unit produces 8000 lumens at a fixed 4000K color temperature with CRI 82, and supports 0-10V low-voltage dimming for compatibility with standard commercial dimming controls. The optical design directs output in an 80° beam angle with low glare, suitable for general ambient lighting in offices, healthcare, hospitality, retail, and residential spaces.
This configuration uses a remote driver rather than an integrated driver, which should be accounted for when planning ceiling plenum space and driver placement during installation.
Compatible Applications
- Healthcare facilities
- Hospitality (hotels, restaurants)
- Office and commercial space
- Property management / multi-family residential
- Residential retrofit
- Retail
- Direct retrofit replacement for 150W HPS or 175W MH fixtures in 8" housings
Before Ordering — Verify
- Confirm the existing housing is a standard 8" CFL mounting frame (8" (replaces 150W HPS/175W MH)); a 10" application requires the optional trim extender accessory.
- Confirm required input voltage (120-277V) matches the site's electrical service – 347V units are not interchangeable with 120-277V units.
- Confirm color temperature (4000K) and CRI (82) meet the project's lighting specification; CCT is fixed on this SKU, not field-selectable.
- Confirm dimming control compatibility if 0-10V dimming is required; this SKU supports dimming.
- Confirm ceiling plenum space accommodates the remote driver used on this 8000lm configuration.
- If trim color other than white is desired, confirm and order the appropriate RT8 Alzak or Satin trim accessory separately.
- If used with emergency backup, confirm compatibility with Philips Bodine ELI-S-20 or IOTA IIS-125 inverters – other models are not confirmed compatible.
Safety and Handling Guidelines
- Disconnect power before installation or service.
- Do not exceed the rated operating temperature range (-4°F to +104°F / -20°C to +40°C).
- Maintain a three-inch clearance around the kit if ceiling insulation is present in a non-insulated ceiling installation.
- Use a recessed incandescent frame for tiled-ceiling applications to properly support the retrofit kit; stand-alone installation (without frame) is recommended for hard ceilings.
- Do not disassemble internal LED or driver components. Use qualified personnel for electrical connections.
Compliance
- UL1598 Listed and Classified for stand-alone and retrofit applications
- RoHS Compliant
- FCC Compliant (Title 47 CFR, Part 15, Class B)
