Textured Diffusers for Beam Angle Management
S-Series lenses can replace textured diffusers such as Solite™ and Industrex™ glass lenses, retaining their iconic textured appearance in a convenient and cost-effective plastic diffuser. They are typically used to soften or diffuse downlights, spot lights, and flood lights that require light to moderate diffusion. S-Series are available in a wide range of thicknesses and materials per the table below.

Usage Notes
S-Series lenses can be used with the textured surface facing either in or out.
1Angles data are typical; they vary greatly depending on luminaire design.
2Efficiencies are typical; they vary greatly depending on luminaire design. BrightView tests include: commercial 4-inch LED downlight module, linear LED fluorescent tube-replacement, 2’x2’ LED troffer with clear acrylic cover.
