Feature → Business Impact → Application: The FT320 uses a 3-lamp T12 fluorescent configuration with a 120 VAC, 60 Hz supply, delivering consistent lumen output across 2 x 2 ft footprints; the business impact is predictable lighting performance and easier maintenance budgeting for vessel interiors. Application: Marine interior ceilings, where recessed ceiling mounting supports clean aesthetics and minimal intrusion into confined spaces. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Copper-free aluminum construction reduces corrosion risk in humid environments, extending service life and lowering replacement costs in fleet applications; this is critical for maintenance schedules on commercial ships. Application: Engine rooms, hatcheries, and cargo decks requiring durable, long-life luminaires with low ballast heat. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Acrylic lens provides shatter resistance and optical clarity, improving safety and reducing replacement parts after impacts in busy marine environments; suitable for low-profile ceiling installations in cabins and passageways. Application: Recessed ceilings in mixed-use fleets where quick swaps and standardized parts streamline procurement. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC compliance ensures regulatory alignment and smoother import/export across North American fleets; minimizes certification delays during retrofits. Application: Refits of existing Crouse-Hinds Pauluhn Meridian FT luminaires in shipboard interiors and offshore platforms. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 2 ft by 2 ft footprint with 5.19 in height and 23.88 in width supports tight retrofit projects while maintaining ample illumination; appropriate for confined corridors and utility rooms. Application: Design offices and crew spaces where consistent lighting quality and space efficiency are prioritized.
