Series 74
Quite a success story
In 1984, we were approached by a client who made a special request of TRILUX: He needed a luminaire for the hallway, which not only gave off light concealed in the ceiling but would also emit light all around; in other words, he wanted something that looked like a small sun.
TRILUX accepted the challenge and developed from the existing cylindrical luminaire 7411/32 the so-called 7402. The shape of the round lamp was retained but the diffuser was executed in a new, so-called “74 design” – a classic, sleek style which quickly led to the luminaire becoming a top seller.
Today, the luminaire that is fondly referred to as Chinese hat or kneecap is still one of our best-selling products. Over the years, it was repeatedly revised and updated: The light’s strength was permanently improved, operating elements modernized, and not least of all, since early 2011 the popular 74 luminaire has also been available as an LED version.
The model 7402 has two distinct LED systems, which can also be activated separately while retaining even illumination of the diffuser. This means that in addition to normal operation, it is also possible to select the night mode offering a 50 percent reduction in consumption.
Despite the technical alternations it has undergone the plain design of the luminaire series has remained practically unchanged. True, a number of minor changes have been made to its appearance, but essentially the sleek version of the luminaire has always been the most popular and has ensured that even 30 years after that client voiced his special request, the success story is by no means over yet.
