The Domus MAX-50 Linear Pendant is a suspended aluminium profile luminaire inthree fixed lengths 1.2m, 1.7m and 2.4m with Osram LED boards, 3000K or 4000K, inanodised aluminium, black or white. 3-year warranty.

This item is made to order

Domus builds this to order and asks for up to 10 business days for production before itships. Order a run together the finish is applied to order.

Its datasheet says “power per metre” and gives you totals

• Two of the three divide exactly to the 17.3W/m that every other MAX-50 productrecords. So the figures are TOTALS, and the label is wrong.
• The product record confirms it: it holds 20.76W for the1.2m the total, not a rate.
• Read as written, a 2.4m pendant would be sized at 2.4 41.6 = 100W two and a half times its real draw. On a run of six that is 600W ofimagined load against 250.
• The 1.7m figure divides to 18.35W/m. At the range’s17.3W/m, 31.2W would be 1.80m so that length is probably nominal ratherthan exact. Ask us if 100mm matters in a ceiling grid.
• Use 20.8W, 31.2W and 41.6W as the totals.

Fixed lengths, where the rest of the MAX range is sold per metre

• Every other MAX-50 product is sold by the metre and cut to your run. Thisone comes in three set lengths.
• Which is the easier purchase and the harder fit. You get a complete,finished pendant with no cutting, no end-cap ordering and no on-site assembly and you getwhatever length is nearest.
• Over a 2.4m boardroom table, the 2.4m pendant is exactly right. Over a 3m island it is not, and the per-metre MAX-50 Down Pendant is the product thatsolves that.
• Rule of thumb for a table: a pendant roughly two-thirds the tablelength looks right and lights it evenly. So 1.2m suits a 1.8m table,1.7m suits 2.5m, and 2.4m suits 3.6m.

150 lumens per watt from Osram boards

• 2,960lm at 1.2m, 4,440 at 1.7m, 5,920 at 2.4m in3000K and 3,120 / 4,680 / 6,240lm in 4000K.
• That works out at about 150lm/W, which is high mostof the fittings in this catalogue sit between 60 and 100.
• The named Osram LED boards are part of why. A named board brand isunusual in this catalogue and it is worth noticing: it means the light engine is a specifiedcomponent rather than an anonymous one, which matters for colour consistency across a run and forreplacement years later.
• CRI 80, 120 beam, 50,000hrs,IP20.

It records “not dimmable” and the MAX range sells DALI and 0-10 V variants

• Every MAX listing records dimmable = No. And the profileproducts in the range sell DALI, 010V and TUNABLE/DALI variants.
• The reading is that the base product is non-dimmable and control is a variantchoice the datasheet says the system offers DALI dimming and emergency uponrequest.
• But a single yes/no field cannot express depends which variant you buy, so a customer filtering on dimmable never sees the most controllable products in thiscatalogue.
• This particular listing offers only 3000K and 4000K in three finishes no DALI or 010V variant appears on it. The per-metreMAX-50 pendant does carry them. Tell us if you need dimming at a fixed length and wewill ask Domus.

What is available on request, and not orderable from the page

The datasheet lists high-output LED boards and integrated emergency asavailable on request. Neither appears as a variant. On a commercial job theemergency option is the one worth asking about, because retrofitting emergency into a suspendedlinear run afterwards means a second product alongside it.

Where it works

• Over boardroom and dining tables pick the length at about two-thirds thetable.
• Reception and retail counters.
• Offices, suspended in rows.
• Not where the run must match an exact length the per-metre MAX-50 doesthat.
• IP20 indoor and dry only.

Specifying it

THE DATASHEET LABELS THE WATTAGES “PER METRE”AND THEY ARE TOTALS 20.8 1.2m = 17.3 W/m, matching the rest of the range. Size on the totals. The1.7M works out at 1.80m on the range’s own W/m. Recorded as not dimmable; DALI and 0-10V exist elsewherein the MAX range but not on this listing.

Questions

How much power does a 2.4m pendant actually draw?

41.6W. The datasheet labels its figures “Power per metre (W): 20.8W 31.2W 41.6W”, and they are totals 20.8 1.2m gives 17.33 W/m and 41.6 2.4m gives 17.33, exactly the 17.3 W/m every other MAX-50 product records. The product record confirms it, holding 20.76W for the 1.2m. Read as written, a 2.4m pendant would be sized at 2.4 41.6 = 100W, two and a half times its real draw on a run of six that is 600W of imagined load against 250.

Is the 1.7m version really 1.7m?

Probably closer to 1.8m. Its 31.2W divides to 18.35 W/m rather than the range’s 17.3, and at 17.3 W/m a 31.2W fitting would be 1.80m. The 1.2m and 2.4m figures divide exactly, so the arithmetic is consistent everywhere else. That suggests the middle length is nominal rather than exact. If 100mm matters in a ceiling grid, between structure, or against a table edge ask us and we will confirm the manufactured length with Domus.

Which length should I choose for a table?

Roughly two-thirds the table length looks right and lights it evenly. So the 1.2m suits about a 1.8m table, the 1.7m suits 2.5m, and the 2.4m suits 3.6m. If your table falls between those, the per-metre MAX-50 Down Pendant is cut to your run and solves it exactly this listing exists for the convenience of a finished pendant with no cutting, no end caps to order and no site assembly.

Why choose fixed lengths over per-metre?

Simplicity. You get a complete, finished pendant rather than a profile system to specify, cut and cap. That removes several ways an order can go wrong and several site tasks. What you give up is exactness: you get whatever length is nearest. Over a 2.4m boardroom table this is exactly right; over a 3m island it is not, and the per-metre version is the answer.

Can I dim it?

Not on this listing, which offers only 3000K and 4000K in three finishes and records dimmable as No. Worth knowing that the per-metre MAX-50 pendants do carry DALI, 010V and even TUNABLE/DALI variants so the platform supports dimming, it is just not offered at these fixed lengths. Every MAX listing records dimmable as No regardless, because a single yes/no field cannot express “depends which variant you buy”. Tell us if you need dimming at a fixed length and we will ask Domus.

How efficient is it?

About 150 lumens per watt, which is high most fittings in this catalogue sit between 60 and 100. The named Osram LED boards are part of why, and a named board brand is unusual here: it means the light engine is a specified component rather than an anonymous one, which matters for colour consistency across a run of pendants and for replacement years later. CRI is 80, which is adequate for offices and boardrooms rather than exceptional.

Can I get it with emergency?

Not as a variant, but the datasheet lists integrated emergency and high-output LED boards as available on request. On a commercial job the emergency option is the one worth asking about early, because retrofitting emergency into a suspended linear run afterwards means installing a second product alongside it which is both visible and awkward. Tell us at quotation stage and we will get it priced with Domus.
