LED - Behavioral Health Recessed Plenum Access Luminaire with Ligature Resistant Doorframe

MBH1-Plenum Access

The Certolux MBH1 Plenum Access LED Troffer is designed for environments where safety, durability, and accessibility are critical. Featuring plenum access through a sealed interior door, this recessed luminaire allows maintenance teams to reach above-ceiling spaces without compromising security or hygiene. Built for behavioral health applications, the MBH1 combines robust construction with a ligature-resistant design, making it ideal for high-risk areas that demand tamper-proof solutions and compliance with stringent safety standards.

Engineered for behavioral health lighting, the MBH1 series meets FGI guidelines and is approved for New York State behavioral health environments (NYOMH). Its patented inset door frame technology, marketed as SHIELDCare™, ensures ligature resistance while maintaining a clean architectural appearance. The door frame is fabricated from 16-gauge cold-rolled steel with welded corners and secured using stainless steel Torx™ head fasteners that are tamper-resistant and captive. This thoughtful design minimizes the risk of misuse while providing easy access for authorized personnel. The fixture’s closed-cell gasket seals the door frame to the housing, preventing dust, water, and light leaks, and achieving IP65 and IK10 ratings for wet location and impact resistance.

The MBH1 excels in medical lighting applications by delivering high-quality illumination with LED modules that maintain color consistency and efficacy over time. Available in multiple color temperatures (3000K–5000K) and optional tunable white ranges (2700K–6500K), the luminaire supports diverse clinical and therapeutic settings. Its polycarbonate lens system includes a clear outer lens and a contoured inner diffuser for comfortable light distribution, while the smooth external surface simplifies cleaning a critical factor in healthcare environments. With a lifetime rating of L70 > 60,000 hours and field-replaceable modules, the MBH1 offers long-term reliability and reduced maintenance costs.

Installation flexibility is another hallmark of this fixture. Designed for flanged mounting in drywall or security ceilings, the MBH1 is not compatible with T-bar grid systems, ensuring a secure fit in specialized spaces. Swing-style mounting brackets accommodate varying ceiling thicknesses, and the fixture operates in ambient temperatures from -4°F to 104°F. Electrical performance is equally robust, featuring a programmable, dimmable driver with 0–10V control, high efficiency (>85%), and low THD (<10%). Emergency battery pack options, tunable white controls, and antimicrobial finishes further enhance adaptability for demanding healthcare environments.

In summary, the Certolux MBH1 Plenum Access LED Troffer delivers a unique combination of safety, accessibility, and performance. Whether for behavioral health facilities or medical spaces, this luminaire provides peace of mind through tamper-proof construction, superior lighting quality, and compliance with industry standards.
