Colite International’s Signature LED Specification Book Colite International, LTD. Ensuring brand integrity worldwide for over 60 years with comprehensive corporate, retail, financial, and hospitality sign programs www.colite.com 1 WHY USE COLITE’S SIGNATURE LEDS? LP 1 Side‐Lit provides a unique look not achievable with standard channel letter fabrication and an ability to cast a mild halo illumination with a flush mounting technique. LP1 is also available as “partial side‐lit” illumination for the front or back half of the letter returns. LP 3 Halo‐Lit offers the ability to “halo‐illuminate” thin stroked letters or areas that usually appear dim in serifs of traditionally manufactured channel letters. LP 4 Face‐Lit provides the opportunity to incorporate face‐lit signage where a variety of challenges must be overcome. Use LP4 if strokes are too thin for standard channel letter fabrication or if a bulkhead area has little or no room for recessing a push‐thru cabinet sign. LP4 also allows for face illumination without “trim cap”. LP 10 is a 3/8” thick acrylic inlay with embedded LEDs and allows for a variety of illumination methods, colors, choices, and depths. This is an excellent choice for signage that is viewed from a closer proximity. LP products are more energy efficient, have lower maintenance costs, and require less maintenance than other traditional channel letters over their life span. • Power Supply – 100V – 240V – 24 Volt 2 GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS LP 1 Side‐Lit I.
