Solar
Philips offers a large selection of solar lighting systems. Philips solar panels assist in producing clean, renewable energy directly to your solar lights. Solar-powered lighting solutions provide an alternative lighting solution for remote communities, or those with unreliable power supplies.
FAQs
The Philips Essential SmartBright Solar Indoor Suspended is a solar-powered indoor suspended luminaire designed for locations where a reliable mains supply is unavailable or absent — such as remote communities, off-grid facilities, and areas with intermittent electricity infrastructure. It integrates solar panel input with LED technology to deliver artificial lighting independent of a conventional power grid.
The family covers luminous flux from 600 lm to 6,000 lm, enabling selection across a wide range of space sizes and illuminance requirements. Efficacy reaches 165 lm/W, making effective use of the limited energy available from a solar panel system. Specifiers should validate the selected lumen package against the target illuminance level for the space using a photometric calculation tool such as DIALux or Relux.
The range spans CCT from 3,000 K to 6,500 K, covering warm white through cool daylight options. The choice of CCT should reflect the visual task and environment: warmer tones (3,000 K) suit relaxation or social spaces, while cooler tones (5,000–6,500 K) support task-oriented or work environments where visual acuity is important.
IP ratings available include IP20 and IP65, with IK ratings of IK05, IK06, and IK08. The higher IP65 rating indicates dust-tight and jet-water-resistant construction, suitable for semi-exposed or humid indoor spaces. The IK ratings reflect mechanical impact resistance, with IK08 offering the highest protection against physical impact within the range — relevant for installations in environments subject to accidental contact or vandalism.
Both dimmable and non-dimmable variants are available within the family. Where dimming is required — for example, to extend battery autonomy during low-generation periods or to match ambient light levels — a dimmable variant should be specified. Consult the individual product datasheet on the Essential SmartBright Solar Indoor Suspended family page to identify which specific configurations include dimming capability.
