Introduction
Bridgelux OLM™ Series modules enable a simple and easy way to develop outdoor luminaires. The modules deliver high quality,
energy efficient lighting for commercial, industrial, and exterior applications. Designed for rapid product development and
integration, OLM modules mechanically attach with four screws. Soldering, glues, and epoxies are removed from the assembly
process and replaced with a robust electrical connection. The integration of optics and environmental protection further simplify
luminaire design.
OLM modules contain IP66 rated protection and proprietary optics to enable the long life and stable performance required
from luminaires used in outdoor lighting. OLM Series modules leverage the seventh generation Vero
®
Series product family, the
latest generation of Bridgelux LED arrays, to deliver lumen output levels to replace high pressure sodium (HPS) and metal halide
technologies used in outdoor luminaires.

Notes for Table 1:
1. Bridgelux maintains a tolerance of ±0.20 V on forward voltage for OLM modules.
2. Tested in pulsed conditions at T
c
=
25°C. Pulse width is 10 ms.
3. Bridgelux maintains a ±10% tolerance on flux values for OLM modules.
4. Typical performance when driven under DC (direct current) with OLM module case temperature (T
c
) maintained at 70°C. OLM module is mounted to a heat sink with
thermal interface material.. Values may vary depending on the thermal design of the luminaire and/or the exposed environment to which the product is subjected.
5. Typical stabilized DC performance values are provided as reference only and are not a guarantee of performance.
