Lutron Introduces Energy-Efficient LED Dimming Driver

Lutron Electronics  Co., Inc. has introduced its Hi-lume LED driver — a high-performance, universal voltage driver that uses energy-efficient LED dimming to reduce light output from 100% to 1%. The driver can be integrated with a multitude of lighting control products.

Hi-lume LED’s eco-friendly benefits extend beyond energy efficiency with a product lifetime of 50,000 hours, or approximately 10 years of service.

The Lutron Hi-lume LED driver is compatible with a wide variety of control options, including digital control with EcoSystem, GRAFIK Eye QS and Quantum. In addition to integrating with lighting control systems, the driver is also compatible with three-wire controls, including Vierti, NovaT, Maestro dimmers, the GP series of dimming panels and more.

“As with so many other Lutron products, the Hi-lume LED driver delivers energy savings and compatibility with multiple lighting control systems,” says Audwin Cash, market development manager for Lutron. “From a simple wall-box dimmer to full-system integration within EcoSystem, Quantum and GRAFIK Eye QS, Hi-lume LED is the industry’s most versatile LED driver.”

The Hi-lume LED driver’s dimming function allows a user to enjoy precise, personalized lighting levels. Other features include:

  • Universal voltage (120V or 277V), 50 or 60 Hz
  • Smooth dimming from 100% to 1% for a variety of LED light engines
  • 25W maximum driver rating
  • Preinstalled by fixture manufacturers, by either studs or flange
  • 25W maximum driver rating
  • Internal thermal management to safely reduce light and power when operating in excessive temperatures to preserve driver life


Lutron’s new Hi-lume LED driver is intended for downlighting, providing both an ambience and space control integration that make it appropriate for a wide range of applications, including meeting rooms, hotels, restaurants, schools, hospitals, corridors retail, and more.

Lutron’s extensive Hi-lume family features the world’s only 100% to 1% dimming ballasts, as well as compatible three-wire controls, which are tested for performance with the leading lamps in the lighting industry.

The Hi-lume LED driver is the newest of a long line of Lutron eco-friendly products. For more information about the energy efficiency achieved by Lutron lighting control products, click here.
