Cree, Inc. introduces XSP IP66 LED Street Luminaires that are optimized for European and other global environmental requirements. The advanced LED street luminaire provides metropolitan and other municipal areas a durable luminaire that protects critical electrical components from dust, water jets and other potentially damaging environmental factors. The Cree XSP Street Luminaire is the first real alternative to high-pressure sodium street lights with better payback, better performance and better price. Compared to its outdated predecessor, the XSP IP66 uses nearly 50 percent less energy and is designed to last more than three times longer.

Beyond saving energy and reducing maintenance due to longer lifetime, Cree achieves better control over luminaire output with its NanoOptic Precision Delivery Grid technology compared to a traditional street light. The new XSP IP66 features similar aesthetics as a traditional HPS street light while achieving unmatched target illumination. Cree’s revolutionary LED and optical technology efficiently delivers light to the street, helping communities appear cleaner and safer.

The XSP IP66 boasts an industry-leading ten year warranty and is available in both single and double module configurations. The innovative luminaire also features state-of-the-art thermal management and electronics critical to high reliability operation in the most challenging applications. The result is a high performance luminaire that delivers superior value without compromising longevity or light quality at the cost of performance. The new luminaire delivers a range of lumen packages and distributions optimized for the most common street light applications.
