LED Plaster Cornice Uplight - Cale

This decorative Micro Cornice plaster lighting is designed to provide indirect architectural feature lighting and can be painted to blend into existing schemes. Fabricated in France using high quality, high density reinforced natural plaster of Paris.

Cale measures 75mm high with a 50mm projection.

Below you have the option to purchase the Ligne Cornice profile, 15w close spacing LED tape, drivers and heat sink.

Installation
Cut with a medium tooth, cross-cut saw with a reasonably stiff blade for best results.

To hang the coving there are 3 screw plates per length, the profile is secured in place with a strong adhesive such as Decofix Pro along with Extra Fix cement for joins. Plaster filler can then be used to fill gaps at the tops, bottoms and joins. If you plan on painting the profile any paint is suitable but remember that emulsion is water based. This means that it may suffer hairline cracks if there is excessive movement or vibration in the ceiling. Acrylic/oil based paints have more “elasticity” in them so are less prone to these fine cracks.

LED Tape
The LED tape specified with this fitting is chosen specifically for its minimal LED spacing. Due to the light source providing direct light on the wall from such a close distance it is easy with other systems to create a dotted effect with dark and light spots. This close LED spacing means you will get a smooth, constant light similar to cold cathode lighting.

Warmer white emits 1400 lumens (85 LM/W) Can be cut every 25mm.
Warm white emits 1470 lumens (89 LM/W) Can be cut every 25mm.
Neutral white emits 1520 lumens (92 LM/W) Can be cut every 25mm.
Cool White emits 1490 lumens (90 LM/W) Can be cut every 25mm.

The LED tape is affixed to a heatsink profile, a simple low profile finned aluminium strip. This disperses heat to stop any discolouration of the profile and to provide a clean, solid base for the LED tape to stick to. Comes with a semi clear diffuser.

LED Drivers (Required to power the LED Tape)
To calculate your driver requirements multiply your tape watts per meter with the length (metres) of tape you require, e.g. 4 metres of 15W tape would require a driver outputting at least 60 Watts.

We can also offer this with RGB, IP Rated or lower wattage tape. We can suit to all requirements.
