Frequently asked questions
What is Aquavance and where should it be specified?
Aquavance is an IP66 rated, flicker-free LED panel designed for environments where moisture, washdown or high humidity would rule out a standard panel light. It is suited to medical applications and high humidity areas, making it a fit for clinical and healthcare settings as well as similarly demanding spaces. It is available across different sizes and wattages, giving flexibility for a range of areas and uses.
What does the IP66 rating mean for durability?
An IP66 rating on the front of the panel means Aquavance is built to resist dust ingress and powerful water jets, backed by an IK08 impact rating for resistance to knocks. This is why it is positioned for washdown or high humidity settings rather than a standard office ceiling, lowering the risk of luminaire failure in spaces that are cleaned frequently or exposed to steam and condensation. It gives specifiers a starting point for sealed luminaire requirements on healthcare or similarly demanding projects.
What warranty and lifetime rating does Aquavance carry?
Aquavance is supplied with a five year warranty and carries an L70 B50 rating of 100,000 hours, ahead of the 50,000 to 70,000 hour ratings seen elsewhere in Ricoman's panel range. This longer rated lifetime is a useful factor for healthcare and high humidity projects, where accessing sealed ceiling voids to replace a failed luminaire can be disruptive. It supports whole-life cost planning alongside the sealed IP66 build.
How consistent is the colour output across Aquavance panels?
Aquavance offers a CRI above 85 and colour consistency rated at SDCM 3 or better, a tighter tolerance than most other panels in Ricoman's recessed modular range. This matters in clinical environments, where consistent, accurate colour rendering across multiple panels supports both visual comfort and clinical observation. It gives specifiers a stronger basis for colour matching across a large installation such as a hospital or medical centre.
Has Aquavance been used on healthcare or care sector projects?
Yes, Aquavance IP66 panels have been installed in medical centre settings and care home kitchens in the UK, alongside use at Rise School in Feltham. These reference projects give specifiers real-world examples of the panel being used in exactly the type of high humidity, hygiene-sensitive environment it is designed for. This is a useful proof point when comparing sealed panel options for a healthcare or care sector fit-out.
