LED - Recessed High Abuse Plenum Access Luminaire with Overlapping Door Frame

VRUo-Plenum Access

The Certolux VRUo series is engineered for high-abuse areas where durability and security are non-negotiable. This recessed luminaire combines robust construction with plenum access, allowing maintenance teams to reach above-ceiling spaces without dismantling the fixture. Designed for demanding applications, it ensures reliability in environments that require both performance and protection.

Every detail of the VRUo luminaire reflects its purpose: resisting vandalism and unauthorized access. The housing is precision die-formed and TIG seam welded for maximum strength, while the overlapping door frame is secured with countersunk tamper-proof Torx® fasteners featuring center pins. A closed-cell foam gasket seals out moisture, dust, and air, preventing light leaks and maintaining integrity. Security lenses and continuous hold-down brackets further enhance impact resistance, with the entire assembly tested to exceed IK10 standards. For facilities prioritizing anti-ligature safety, the VRUo-LRC variant is available.

Beyond its rugged design, the VRUo delivers exceptional lighting performance. Long-life LEDs paired with high-efficiency drivers provide consistent illumination with an L80 rating of over 50,000 hours. Available in 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K color temperatures, the fixture supports low-voltage dimming (0–10V) for adaptable lighting control. Optional features include LED night lights in white or amber, emergency battery packs, and IP65-rated protection for wet locations. The fixture’s vandal resistant lighting design makes it ideal for correctional facilities, behavioral health centers, and other high-security spaces. With plenum access built in, maintenance becomes simpler and safer, no need for disruptive ceiling removal.

When security, durability, and ease of access matter, the VRUo series stands out. Its combination of tamper-proof construction, vandal-resistant features, and integrated plenum access ensures long-term reliability in the toughest environments. Backed by a 5-year limited warranty and CSA/UL approvals, this luminaire is a trusted solution for architects, engineers, and facility managers seeking uncompromising performance.
