Artemide - Demetra Professional Movement Detector table lamp anthracite grey
In Demetra Professional the flows issued vary while the dimensions remain identical to the classic version. It was created to respond to a need for task light with greater flows that allow to obtain high illuminance on the work surface. Thanks to the evolution of led technology to the intelligence of elementary solutions, it manages to give the maximum performance. Aesthetically, in fact, it retains the minimal simplicity and linearity of Demetra but the head becomes a more complex optical machine, designed for an LED of higher power thanks to a careful study of thermal. The lower part of the body of the head is in aluminum and acts as a heatsink shaping and folding inside the head to accommodate the LED without creating contact and then thermal bridge with the top. This allows maximum dissipation and therefore the use of a high power COB LED without compromising the functionality resulting from gestures and direct relationship with the lamp. Its head can be safely touched at the top without coming into contact with high temperatures. The emission is controlled by a reflector that protrudes slightly from the profile of the head, draws on the plane the perfect illuminances for a workplace with a high color rendering (cri 90).
