Brex 93Mm LED Downlight Dimmable

The Brex DL93 is a 93 mm recessed LED downlight in white — 10 W giving 870 lm at 3000 K, CRI above 90, TRIAC dimmable, 85 mm cutout.

A deeply recessed reflector — the reason to buy it

The Brex sits its LED well back inside the fitting. That does one thing very well: you cannot see the source from a normal standing or seated angle, so there is no bright spot in your peripheral vision as you move through a room. In a bedroom ceiling, or anywhere you look up, that is the difference between a comfortable ceiling and a glary one. It costs a little output — 870 lm from 10 W, 87 lm/W, where a shallower fitting gives more — and that is a deliberate trade.

CRI above 90

Most downlights sit at 80. Above 90 means food, timber, skin and fabric hold their true colour. Over a kitchen bench or in a bathroom that is where the difference shows most clearly.

IP44 from the room side

Our record said simply IP44. The datasheet is more precise: IP44 (room side) — the visible face is protected against splashing water, so it suits a bathroom ceiling outside the shower zone, while the back of the fitting in the ceiling void is not weather-rated. That is the normal arrangement for a recessed bathroom downlight, and the wording matters to your electrician.

85 mm cutout, 100 mm depth

An 85 mm hole is the common Australian size, so it drops into most existing ceilings when replacing older fittings. The face is 93 mm, a 4 mm overlap. Allow 100 mm of depth above the ceiling — more than the shallower fittings in this catalogue, because of the recessed reflector.

36-degree beam, TRIAC dimming, IC-4

36° is narrower than the usual 60, giving a tighter, lower-glare pool — so space them closer than a wide downlight. Dimming is TRIAC, the ordinary leading-edge wall dimmer, with surge protection built in and a drive current of 240 mA. IC-4 means it may be covered by ceiling insulation.

Where it works

• Bedrooms and living areas — the recessed reflector kills the glare.
• Kitchens, where CRI above 90 shows on food and timber.
• Bathroom ceilings outside the shower zone.
• Retrofits into an existing 85 mm cutout — allow 100 mm depth.
• ⚠ Clearance stock and a one-year warranty — check availability first.
