DIY Magnum LED floodlights: modular design with Osram SMD3030 chip and 180 lm/W for demanding installations

The modular DIY Magnum LED floodlight solves installations where the designer decides power and beam angle on the drawing itself. The modular Magnum LED floodlight is built from 50 watt blocks, carries an Osram SMD3030 3D chip and reaches a 180 lm/W high luminosity efficiency.

What makes the DIY Magnum floodlight different

A conventional floodlight forces you to pick from the powers predetermined by the manufacturer, so the designer ends up oversizing the installation, whereas the Magnum series supplies components that the installer combines on site.

Modular design with interchangeable parts

The modular design with interchangeable parts allows mounting from a single block up to four on the same bracket. One single reference therefore covers a padel court or a regulation field alike. The aluminium thermal dissipation housing is shared across every module.

Osram SMD3030 3D chip up to 180 lm/W

The DIY Osram 3D chip LED floodlight carries 72 SMD 3030 3D diodes on a sapphire substrate, an architecture that splits the current across three independent cores. The Magnum SMD3030 180lm/w LED floodlight delivers 7500 lumens while drawing only 50 watts, and the DIY Magnum 180lm/w floodlight keeps practically that figure across the 80000h service life of the unit.

Available models and beam angles

The 50W initial Magnum range power is the starting point of the system, which scales up to 400 watts by combining blocks, and the 60 and 90 degree beam angle available is set at the time of order and conditions the surface covered by each point.

50W floodlight with concentrated 60 degree angle

The 50w 60 degree DIY Magnum LED floodlight concentrates the beam and suits points set above eight metres, because the high luminosity Magnum LED floodlight keeps the light level in the centre of the field.

50W floodlight with diffuse 90 degree angle

The 90 degree Magnum LED floodlight spreads identical flux over twice the surface and is the usual choice in units of moderate height, since the 50w DOB Magnum Osram LED floodlight covers a complete bay from six metres.

Modular parts and accessories

The whole range holds modular CE RoHS certification and IP65 outdoor protection on every block.

Simple side joining part

The simple side joining part links two adjacent blocks while keeping the optical alignment, and the Magnum LED floodlight joining part is ordered by units according to the blocks at each point. The Magnum LED floodlight wall installation uses the same bracket bolted to the wall.

Most common professional applications

Sports facilities, logistics units and port yards account for most projects, because the IP65 outdoor Magnum LED floodlight withstands pressure washing and frost without internal condensation, whereas the modular DIY LED floodlight warranty covers the whole unit with the driver included.

Why 180 lm/W makes the difference in consumption

A generic 50 watt floodlight sits around 110 lumens per watt, so practically two units are needed to match the flux of a single Magnum module, which is exactly how the DIY Magnum LED floodlight price pays for itself. The modular DIY LED floodlight price and the 50w Magnum LED floodlight price depend on the configuration chosen.

Frequently asked questions about the modular DIY Magnum LED floodlight

What does it mean that the DIY Magnum floodlight is modular?

The unit is made of 50 watt blocks mounted on a common bracket, and the installer decides how many each point carries and later increases the power without replacing the luminaire.

What is the difference between the 60 and 90 degree angle on the Magnum?

The 60 degrees concentrate the beam and suit a floodlight set high above the lit area, whereas the 90 degrees spread the flux over twice the surface and work better at moderate heights.

Is the Osram SMD3030 3D chip better than the SMD2835?

The SMD3030 3D splits the current across three cores, so it withstands greater power density per diode, which translates into more lumens per watt and a considerably slower degradation.

Can I combine DIY Magnum modules to increase power?

Yes, that is precisely the point of the system, since the joining parts group up to four blocks on the same support and the series reaches 400 watts and 56000 lumens.

Do DIY Magnum floodlights have IP65 for outdoor use?

Yes, every block carries IP65 grade and tempered glass, which allows installing them outdoors without a canopy and cleaning them with a hose.
