Accessories for LED High Bays: Angle Reflectors and Industrial Suspension Kits

LED high bay accessories complete the industrial LED high bay and decide how the light is distributed across the building. A reflector for UFO LED high bays focuses the beam where you work and a suspension kit solves the installation safely, so it is best to choose both at the same time as the high bay.

Why the reflector changes the light distribution of your high bay

Without a reflector, the high bay spreads light in every direction and part of the flux is lost on ceilings and walls. With a light concentrator high bay reflector, the beam is directed towards the floor and the adjusted light distribution is noticeable as soon as it is switched on. Among LED high bay accessories, it is the industrial LED high bay accessory that changes the final result the most, and it is almost always an essential low-cost accessory in a lighting project.

The difference can be seen with a visual example of LED technology. A high bay without a reflector lights the aisle and also the side shelves with uneven intensity, while the same high bay with a reflector leaves the aisle well lit and reduces side glare.

From scattered light to light concentrated in the work area

The LED high bay reflector for aisles is especially useful in warehouses with tall shelving, where light concentration in the aisle avoids dark areas between racks. A narrow-angle concentrator reflector raises the illuminance on the work plane without increasing the power of the high bay or altering its colour temperature.

This makes it possible to choose a lower power for the same visual task. That is why the reflector is treated as part of the system and not as a last-minute extra.

Types of reflector available and compatible LED high bay accessories

The UFO LED high bay reflector angle is chosen according to the width of the area you want to light. The LED high bay reflector angle 60 90 degrees defines the beam opening angle, and a narrow angle of 60 degrees concentrates the light more than one of 90 degrees, which covers wide surfaces with less intensity in the centre.

For long, narrow aisles the reduced angle works better, and for open-plan buildings the wide one is suitable. If in doubt, among LED high bay accessories the reflector lighting angle most used in warehouses with shelving is the narrow one.

Suspension systems for high bays in industrial buildings

An industrial LED high bay needs a hanging system that holds its weight for years. The LED high bay suspension kit for industrial buildings includes the fixing elements and is fitted in minutes, and suspended ceiling installation keeps the luminaire at the right height above the work area.

The kits are made of strong steel, a high bay accessory for industrial use, with a finish that protects against damp in industrial environments. The part should withstand several times the weight of the luminaire in order to work with a margin.

Adjustable chain cable and direct ceiling fixing

There are two common solutions. The hanging chain for industrial LED high bays is the classic option and is adjusted link by link, and the chain cable suspension kit allows sections to be combined to reach the desired height. With an adjustable LED high bay suspension cable the adjustment is finer and the height is corrected without special tools.

If the industrial building has a low ceiling, direct industrial high bay ceiling fixing avoids hanging the luminaire. The industrial LED high bay hanging kit comes as a closed set, so there is no need to gather loose parts.

The LED high bay ceiling mounting accessory adapts to beams, trusses and panels, and the right LED high bay installation accessory reduces site time. Before ordering LED high bay accessories, measure the clear height and decide whether you hang the high bay or fix it to the ceiling.

Complete your order of LED high bay accessories with the industrial UFO LED high bays and with the LED drivers so that the set is complete.

Frequently asked questions about LED high bay accessories

What is the reflector for on a UFO LED high bay?

It focuses the light beam towards the work area and reduces the flux lost on ceilings and walls. It is especially useful in aisles and areas where you need more illuminance on the floor.

It does not reduce the total flux of the high bay, it only redirects it. The centre of the beam receives more light and the sides less, which is why the reflector is chosen according to the area you want to light.

Which reflector do I need for my 150W high bay?

For the Osram Endurance high bay from 100W to 150W, the 60-degree reflector of that format is the right one. Check the reference in the data sheet and confirm that it matches your model.

Which suspension systems are used to install LED high bays?

The usual options are the chain, the adjustable cable and direct ceiling fixing. The choice depends on the clear height of the building and how easily you want to adjust the luminaire.

Are the accessories compatible with high bays from any manufacturer?

Not always, because LED high bay accessories are designed for a specific series. Check the fixing format and the power before buying to ensure a correct installation.

Does the suspension kit allow the height of the high bay to be adjusted?

Yes, both the chain and the cable allow the height to be adjusted. This way you adapt the luminaire to the distance your work area needs.
