While considering how to best go about replacing HID or fluorescent high bay lights with the more efficient LEDs, Emerson Electric realized that the process would be costly and difficult. Most high bay luminaires are heavy and located in hard-to-reach areas. Two or more people are often needed to perform the installations, which leads to increased labor costs, hence leading to a slower return on LED investment. The solution to all of this comes by way of the Emerson High Bay LED retrofit luminaire.
Featuring a patented Quick-Mount pendant system, the Appleton Baymaster provides a faster, safer and more cost-effective solution to retrofitting high bay LEDs to existing light mounts. The process requires one electrician to pre-wire the mounting hood, line the arrows up, and lock the Baymaster into place. This process seems as simple as the Go Green LED T8 Retrofit Bulbs Review we did back in 2016, however high bay LEDs will provide much more light.

The Lower Cost Of the Baymaster
By reducing energy costs by around 65%, as well as significantly lowering the maintenance costs of lamp replacements, Emerson believes that a company can break even on its lighting solutions quickly by retrofitting traditional HID high bays with their Baymaster LED luminaires. The Emerson Appleton Baymaster LED luminaires deliver far greater lighting efficiency when compared to traditional lighting sources, including fluorescents, than previous efficiency leaders.
The Emerson Appleton Baymaster LED comes with a standard 5-year warranty, which can be extended to 10 years when the luminaire is equipped with secondary optics and 10kVsurge protection. Emerson also makes a wide range of accessories for this lighting system, including a safety cable, guard, Y mount cable assembly, and drain assembly.
