It drops into the ceiling as a fixed trim, with the lamp seated behind the round aperture to direct light downward. American buyers will recognise this format as a low-voltage recessed can light, sized for a single MR16 spot rather than an integrated LED module. The light output and beam depend on the MR16 lamp you fit, so the same housing can run a tight accent spot or a wider general spread depending on the bulb chosen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it accepts a standard 12V MR16 lamp, the CTX suits hallways, landings, kitchens and living rooms where a neat recessed point of light is wanted. Several units in a run give even coverage across a ceiling, and the actual brightness and spread come down to the MR16 lamps specified, so the spacing can be tuned to the room. It is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only, so keep it clear of bathrooms, porches and any damp or sheltered-outdoor position. For larger rooms, plan the layout around the beam angle of the chosen lamp to avoid dark patches between fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is made from aluminium alloy in a matte chrome finish, measuring Ø85 by 25 mm and weighing 48 g, so it sits shallow above the ceiling line. It mounts recessed into the ceiling and holds the GX5.3 lamp securely behind the round trim. Running on 12V, it needs a suitable low-voltage transformer to supply the MR16 lamp, which is specified separately. The CTX sits within the wider Luto range, which offers further recessed downlight options to match across a scheme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emax 10W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 AC; 12 DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Mount In The Ceiling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCap \/ base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGx5.3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight source\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMR16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eØ85 × 25 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminium Alloy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome Matte\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/kanlux-2583-spec.pdf?v=1782048962\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/kanlux-2583-datasheet.pdf?v=1782048961\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRange Datasheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size cut-out does this downlight need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitting measures Ø85 mm across the trim and sits 25 mm deep above the ceiling line. Cut the recess to suit the housing body rather than the outer trim, and allow a little clearance for the lamp and wiring. Always check the housing against your ceiling void before cutting the hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it need a transformer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The CTX runs on 12V AC or DC and takes an MR16 lamp on a GX5.3 cap, so it requires a suitable low-voltage transformer or driver to step the mains supply down. Match the transformer rating to the total wattage of the lamps you connect, allowing for the 10W maximum per fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this downlight in a bathroom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This fitting is rated IP20, which means it is for dry indoor use only and offers no protection against moisture. Keep it clear of bathrooms, shower zones and any damp or outdoor location, and choose an IP-rated downlight for those areas instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the matte chrome trim with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, with the power switched off and the lamp cool. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh solvents, which can mark the aluminium finish. A gentle wipe is usually enough to keep the trim clear of dust.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kanlux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53195094851851,"sku":"2583","price":4.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/2583.jpg?v=1782032346","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/luto-ctx-80-round-recessed-downlight-mr16-matte-chrome","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
