PMW XY220T8 2ft Double LED T8 Fitting | IP20
The PMW XYLO SLIM Series XY220T8 (Code: 01.XY220T8-M3-02.00) is an industrial-grade, 2-tube 2ft (610mm) LED T8 bare channel fitting engineered for modern commercial, residential, and industrial illumination in Malaysia. Constructed from high-durability cold-rolled steel with an IP20 rating, this double-tube casing features a starterless, direct-wire design optimized for energy-efficient T8 LED tubes.
Full Description:
Upgrade your lighting infrastructure with the PMW XYLO SLIM Series XY220T8 double T8 LED bare channel fitting. Built specifically for two 2ft LED T8 linear tubes, this bare channel fitting provides full luminaire output without light absorption, making it ideal for high-visibility environments such as retail shops, office corridors, storage spaces, parking garages, and light-manufacturing facilities.Designed without starter holes, the XY220T8 casing natively supports modern double-ended or single-ended LED T8 tubes. By removing unnecessary fluorescent legacy components like starters and magnetic ballasts, this direct-wire fixture reduces overall power loss, minimizes potential maintenance points, and delivers instant, flicker-free illumination.
Heavy-Duty Cold-Rolled Steel Construction
Unlike standard plastic or lightweight aluminum casings that warp under ambient temperatures, the PMW XY220T8 is built from premium cold-rolled steel. This heavy-duty metal base ensures structural rigidity during installation and long-term operations. The cold-rolled steel casing also serves as a passive heat conductor, helping draw excess thermal output away from the LED tube drivers, extending overall fixture life.
Key Benefits & Malaysian Standard Suitability
- Space-Saving Form Factor: At 610mm long, 40mm wide, and 60mm high with a 95mm lamp span, the slim profile fits into tight ceiling bays, under-cabinet spaces, and lower-clearance walkways.
- Simplified Installation: Pre-engineered for fast surface-mounting or suspended installation on standard Malaysian electrical junction boxes.
- Safety & IP20 Rating: Dust-protected for indoor environments, reducing maintenance intervals in standard indoor settings.
- Starterless Efficiency: Eliminates legacy fluorescent components for direct LED mains wiring, improving energy savings and reducing installation steps.
Specification:
Q1: Is this PMW XY220T8 fitting suitable for standard fluorescent T8 tubes?
A: No, this fitting is specifically wired for 2ft T8 LED tubes and features a bare channel design with no starter hole, making it unsuitable for legacy fluorescent tubes with starters.
Q2: Does this 2ft double LED casing come with LED tubes included?
A: No, the PMW XY220T8 is a bare channel metal casing/fitting only.
You will need to purchase two 2ft LED T8 tubes separately.
Q3: Can I install this double T8 LED fitting outdoors in Malaysia?
A:No.
The XY220T8 carries an IP20 protection rating, meaning it is meant strictly for indoor applications like homes, offices, stores, and covered corridors.
Q4: How do I wire a 2ft LED T8 tube fitting without a starter hole?
A: Because it has no starter hole, the fixture connects directly to AC mains power (Live and Neutral) according to your LED T8 tube’s wiring diagram (single-ended or double-ended power).
Q5: What are the exact dimensions of the PMW XY220T8 fitting?
A: It measures 610mm in length, 40mm in body width, 60mm in total height, with a base height of 30mm and a total lamp span (W1) of 95mm.
Q6: Why is cold-rolled steel better for LED T8 casings?
A: Cold-rolled steel provides superior mechanical strength, prevents warping over time, and provides effective thermal dissipation for long-lasting performance.
Q7: Can I use this 2ft fitting to replace an old 20W fluorescent casing?
A:Yes, you can replace old 2ft fluorescent casings with this LED-ready fitting, which eliminates the need for ballasts and starters to save energy.
Q8: Does this T8 casing require a ballast?
A: No, LED T8 bare channel fittings do not require a ballast or starter, allowing direct connection to your electrical mains.
Q9: Where is the PMW XY220T8 double T8 casing commonly used?
A: It is widely used in commercial offices, retail shops, stairwells, warehouses, kitchens, and residential walkways throughout Malaysia.
