Saxby Luik Eyelid Casing Textured Black | 61648

Robust IP65 & IK10 Black Eyelid Bulkhead Casing for Saxby Luik LED Gear Trays

The Saxby Luik Eyelid Casing | 61648 is a tough, slimline surface-mounted bulkhead casing designed for creating a configurable Saxby Luik LED bulkhead. Finished in textured black RAL 9005 with an opal polycarbonate diffuser and distinctive eyelid cover, it provides a smart, durable solution for both exterior and interior lighting applications.

Manufactured from die-cast aluminium alloy and polycarbonate, the casing carries an IP65 weather-resistant rating and IK10 impact rating, making it particularly well suited to demanding environments. Saxby's current technical data confirms a 359mm diameter, 68mm projection and approximately 2.2kg weight.

Importantly, 61648 is the casing only. A compatible Luik LED gear tray must be purchased separately, allowing the finished bulkhead to be configured as standard, emergency, microwave sensor or combined microwave/emergency lighting.

Build Your Own Saxby Luik Bulkhead

The Luik system has been designed around a modular approach. First choose the required casing style and colour, then select a compatible gear tray according to the functionality required.

The 61648 provides the textured black eyelid casing, while compatible Luik gear trays provide the LED module, driver and optional emergency or microwave sensor functionality.

This approach allows installers to standardise around the Luik platform while configuring individual fittings for different locations throughout a project.

Compatible Saxby Luik Gear Trays

The 61648 casing is compatible with the following Saxby gear trays:

• 61652 – Standard Luik Gear Tray: Standard non-dimmable configuration
• 61653 – Emergency Luik Gear Tray: Emergency lighting configuration
• 72180 – Microwave Luik Gear Tray: Integrated microwave sensor configuration
• 72181 – Microwave & Emergency Luik Gear Tray: Combined microwave sensor and emergency configuration

These combinations are confirmed in Saxby's current Luik installation instructions.

This means the same 61648 exterior casing can be used across a project while the internal gear tray is selected to meet the requirements of each individual location.

Textured Black Eyelid Design

The eyelid-style front cover distinguishes the 61648 from Saxby's plain and grille Luik casings.

The eyelid partially shields the opal diffuser, creating a more directional appearance while giving the bulkhead a distinctive architectural finish.

The textured black paint finish is specified as RAL 9005, making it particularly suitable for modern exterior schemes, dark window frames, black architectural hardware and contemporary commercial installations.

Tough Die-Cast Aluminium Construction

The Luik casing is manufactured from die-cast aluminium alloy and polycarbonate, providing a strong yet practical enclosure for the compatible LED gear tray.

This robust construction makes the fitting suitable for demanding applications such as communal areas, commercial premises and exterior circulation spaces where conventional decorative lighting may be vulnerable to accidental impact.

IK10 Impact Resistance

Saxby's technical datasheet specifies the Luik 61648 at IK10, the highest rating on the standard IK impact-resistance scale.

This makes the Luik particularly attractive for environments where increased physical robustness is desirable, including communal areas, corridors, stairwells, public-access spaces and commercial properties.

IP65 Weather Protection

The IP65 rating makes the Luik casing suitable for appropriate exterior and demanding interior applications.

IP65 indicates protection against dust ingress and protection against water jets when the complete fitting is correctly assembled and installed.

This makes the Luik suitable for applications where greater environmental protection is required than a standard indoor bulkhead can provide.

Slim 68mm Projection

Despite its robust construction, the Luik Eyelid maintains a relatively slim profile.

The casing measures 359mm in diameter with a projection of just 68mm, allowing it to sit neatly against the mounting surface.

Its combination of a broad 359mm diameter and shallow projection creates a contemporary, low-profile appearance suitable for both modern and traditional installations.

Wall or Ceiling Mounting

The Luik system can be installed on either a wall or ceiling, giving installers additional flexibility when designing a lighting scheme. Saxby's installation instructions specifically provide for both mounting arrangements.

Typical positions can therefore include exterior walls, entrance areas, corridors, stairwells and ceilings, subject to the installation requirements for the selected gear tray.

Suitable for Standard Lighting

When paired with the Saxby 61652 standard gear tray, the 61648 can be configured as a conventional non-dimmable LED bulkhead.

This provides a straightforward solution for general lighting applications where emergency or occupancy-detection functionality is not required.

Emergency Lighting Option

Pair the casing with the 61653 emergency gear tray where emergency-lighting functionality is required.

This makes it possible to maintain the same Luik appearance throughout a building while using emergency-equipped versions in locations where emergency illumination is required.

Microwave Sensor Option

For areas where automatic occupancy detection is desirable, the 72180 microwave gear tray can be selected.

Microwave sensing is particularly useful for areas such as corridors, stairwells and communal spaces where lighting only needs to operate when occupancy is detected.

Combined Microwave & Emergency Option

The 72181 gear tray combines microwave sensor and emergency functionality.

This allows the Luik 61648 casing to form part of an automatic, energy-conscious lighting installation while also providing the required emergency functionality when correctly specified and installed.

Important – Gear Tray Required

The Saxby 61648 is not supplied as a complete operational LED bulkhead.

This product is the Luik textured black eyelid casing, and a compatible gear tray must be ordered separately to complete the luminaire.

Choose from:

• 61652 for standard operation
• 61653 for emergency operation
• 72180 for microwave sensor operation
• 72181 for combined microwave sensor and emergency operation

Saxby's current instructions confirm all four gear trays as compatible Luik configurations.

Why Choose the Saxby Luik 61648?

The Saxby Luik 61648 combines a robust exterior with the flexibility of a modular lighting platform.

Its die-cast aluminium construction, polycarbonate diffuser, IP65 weather resistance and IK10 impact rating make it particularly well suited to demanding commercial, residential and exterior environments.

The modular gear-tray design is another major advantage. Rather than specifying entirely different luminaires for standard, emergency and sensor-controlled areas, the same textured black eyelid casing can be combined with the appropriate Luik gear tray.

With its RAL 9005 textured black finish, distinctive eyelid design, 359mm diameter and slim 68mm projection, the 61648 provides a durable yet contemporary foundation for a versatile Luik LED bulkhead installation.
