The LED backlight rails are also field replaceable

To ease the customer’s transition from CCFL-backlit displays, many of the new LED-backlit displays have the same mounting locations and sizes, saving on re-design and development costs. Each of the new panels are compatible with Optrex’s conventional CCFL-backlit TFT LCDs of the same size and resolution. The LED backlight rails are also field replaceable.Optrex’s LED-backlit led highbay light are designed for a board range of applications, including test & measurement, factory automation, navigation and avionics systems, POS and ATM machines, and medical equipment.

One contract, with Woodstone Energy, is to upgrade the lighting at a large Fortune 50 manufacturing facility which will involve the retrofit and replacement of several thousand fixtures. The other two contracts are with large National Energy Services Companies ("ESCOs"); one to upgrade a community college and the other encompasses the upgrade of several county government buildings in the Southeast. In all three of these contracts, SRC has already audited the existing facilities, inventoried their lighting systems, proposed an improved design and will now procure the materials and oversee the installations. All three contracts are expected to be completed before the end of the year.

Rob Wilson, VP of SRC, commented, "We have established ourselves as a premier lighting design and retrofit firm. That combined with our positive relationship with Woodstone Energy and other ESCOs is clearly giving us a competitive advantage in securing these contracts."
