In alignment with Orion’s reputation as a thought leader in
cost-saving fixture design, the HARRIS Linear Strip and Retrofit
Fixture is easy to install by one person, potentially reducing
labor costs by up to 50 percent when compared to most fixtures on
the market today that require two people for installation. The
series is engineered using the most efficient and latest LED
technology that peaks industry performance in its class at up to
138 lumens per watt (LPW), a 38 percent increase over the average
LED linear strip in the market today.** The LED Linear Strip and
Retrofit series is designed for worry free maintenance up to
fifteen years and has a rated life of 100,000 hours, which is twice
as long as competing fixtures.
Because of its high performance qualities and basic construction
and features, Orion’s entire Harris Class product line is designed
for customers whose foremost objective is to decrease energy costs
and improve light levels with the lowest upfront costs and fastest
return on investment. “Every detail of the Harris Class product
line is designed with lowering upfront costs in mind,” said Scott
Green, executive vice president at Orion. “Because installation
costs are a significant part of the initial investment in an LED
lighting system or retrofit project, we wanted a design that could
be easily hung by one person, which means that a typical two-man
crew can install Orion's LED strip fixtures in half the time as a
two-man crew installing other brands on the market. That's
significant time and money when you consider a 100 or more fixture
install.”
Orion’s continually evolving customer base, including
distributors and contractors, will find the single packaging option
convenient for site verification or single fixture orders. The job
pack option reduces jobsite waste by shipping the product in kits
that are labeled and staged by install order and facility layout.
The same unique custom packaging can be reused for securely packing
and shipping existing fixtures for recycling.
Orion’s new HARRIS Class LED Linear Strip and Retrofit series
positions Orion for accelerated demand expected in the linear
fixture market. According to the Energy Savings Forecast of
Solid-State Lighting in General Illumination Applications report
published in September 2016 by the Department of Energy, the
percentage of linear fluorescent fixtures expected to be replaced
by LED linear fixtures will increase from 3 percent in the
commercial sector and 8 percent in the industrial sector to 17
percent and 30 percent respectively by 2020 and 73 percent and 78
percent by 2030.
The Harris LED Linear Strip and Retrofit series is manufactured
in Wisconsin and Buy American Compliant. Orion offers the fastest
lead times in the industry, meaning customers start saving money
faster by reducing energy consumption sooner.

fluorescent fixture averaging 208 watts.
**SFHC1-F1 8’ fixture versus an average competitive linear strip
fixture that delivers 100 lumens per watt.
