The Torben PE240 is a 2.4-metre linear pendant 46W for2,400lm, three colour temperatures, TRIAC dimmable in black or brown.

2,400mm, which is exceptional

This is the longest pendant in the range by a wide margin. Most linear fittings stop at1.2 or 1.8 metres; the Torben runs the length of a full dining table or a commercialcounter in one piece, with no join and no gap. If you have been trying to cover a long run withtwo or three shorter pendants and hating the spacing, this is the answer.

Only 24mm wide and 41mm deep

A 2.4-metre fitting could easily be oppressive. This one is a line, not a beam narrower than a finger. Off, it reads as a pencil stroke across the ceiling; on, it is acontinuous strip of light.

The suspension adjusts from 800 to 1,700mm

Nearly a metre of adjustment, which matters far more on a long fitting than a short one: over 2.4metres, a small error in drop is visible along the whole length. An earlier version ofthis page quoted a single fixed figure.

Set expectations on brightness

2,400lm spread over 2.4 metres is a gentle, even wash about athousand lumens per metre. It is beautiful over a dining table and it dims well. It isnot task lighting for a workbench; if you need that over this length, tell us and wewill point you elsewhere.

Colour temperature and dimming, both

Questions

How long is it really?

2,400mm 2.4 metres in one piece, the longest pendant in this range by a wide margin. If two shorter pendants never spaced properly over your run, this is the answer.

Is it bright enough to work under?

It is a gentle even wash about a thousand lumens per metre. Beautiful over a dining table, but not task lighting for a workbench. Tell us if you need that over this length.

How far down does it hang?

Adjustable from 800 to 1,700mm. Nearly a metre of range, which matters on a long fitting because a small error in drop shows along the whole length.

Can I dim it?

Yes, on a TRIAC (leading-edge) dimmer and you can also select 3000, 4000 or 5000K on the fitting. Check with us if your dimmer is trailing-edge or smart.

Will it feel oppressive?

It is only 24mm wide and 41mm deep a line, not a beam. Off, it reads as a pencil stroke across the ceiling.

Is there a shorter version?

Yes, a 160cm Torben, also in black and brown.

Warmer than black, in a sand texture. It is the unusual one, and it suits timber ceilings.
