SATCO Lighting S11619 12W LED Direct Wire Downlight, Gimbaled, 4in, 3000K, 120V, Dimmable, Round, Remote Driver, Black

Remote driver. The S11619 is built as a remote driver LED downlight, so the driver mounts away from the fixture in the ceiling cavity rather than inside the 2 inch deep housing. That is what lets it go into shallow plenums, but it also means the driver has to be accessible for service, so plan the junction box location before you close the ceiling.

It carries a Wet location rating, so a shower or tub enclosure is within its rating. Satco still classifies it as an indoor fixture, so for a covered porch or soffit you are relying on the wet rating rather than an outdoor listing. It is cETLus listed and FCC compliant.

Locked in. The S11619 is fixed at 3000K warm white and is not CCT selectable, and the wattage is fixed at 12W with no field selectable output. If you are mixing it into a building where the other cans are 2700K or 4000K, the color will not match, so order by CCT for each area rather than assuming one part covers the job.

Yes, the S11619 is dimmable on 120V line voltage. Because the driver is remote, the dimming performance depends on that driver and the control you pair it with, so check the Satco instruction sheet packed with the fixture for the compatible dimmer listing before you commit a whole floor to one control brand.

Satco lists the S11619 as California T24 Listed, so it can be specified where Title 24 compliant recessed luminaires are required. It is also RoHS compliant and cETLus listed.

The gimbal lets you tilt the light module inside the trim to aim the beam, which a fixed round downlight cannot do. Use the gimbal on sloped ceilings, to wash artwork or a feature wall, or to pull light off a glare line in a lobby. If you just want even general lighting down a corridor, a fixed trim is simpler to aim-proof across a fleet of units. The S11619 is the gimbaled, round, black-trim version.

Black trim, on an aluminum base. Black reads as a low-glare aperture in hospitality and retail ceilings; if the rest of your building is on white trims, this one will stand out, so match it across the room rather than spot-replacing a single can.
