Yin LED Round Recessed Downlight 12W 4000K - Black

The Yin is a 98mm diameter recessed LED downlight with a 12W integrated LED producing 4000K cool white light at a CRI of 90. The black aluminium body sits flush with the ceiling, with a deep conical reflector directing light downward in a concentrated beam. The fitting depth of 75mm requires adequate ceiling void clearance for recessed installation.

Designed for task lighting in kitchens, home offices, retail environments and commercial spaces where colour accuracy matters, the Yin's 4000K colour temperature provides clarity without the warm yellow cast of 3000K or the stark clinical feel of 5000K. The 90 CRI ensures fabrics, paint colours and product displays are rendered accurately under the light, which is particularly useful in kitchens where food preparation benefits from accurate colour perception, and in retail spaces where merchandise colour must be true to daylight.

The black powder-coated aluminium finish absorbs ambient light rather than reflecting it, making the fitting visually recede into dark or minimalist ceilings. The conical reflector prevents light spill onto the ceiling plane, concentrating output downward into the task area. The IP20 rating limits the Yin to dry interior spaces only — it is not suitable for bathrooms, shower rooms or outdoor soffits.

The fitting operates on 220-240V AC mains and the integrated LED is non-replaceable, with the entire unit rated for approximately 25,000-30,000 hours of use depending on operating conditions. Maytoni provides a 5-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and premature LED failure. Installation requires a suitable ceiling void depth of at least 80mm to accommodate the 75mm fitting height plus wiring clearance.

Product Manual

What ceiling void depth is needed for installation?

The fitting is 75mm deep, so a minimum ceiling void depth of 80-85mm is required to accommodate the unit plus wiring clearance. Measure your ceiling void before ordering if installing into a false ceiling or plasterboard.

Is the Yin dimmable?

Some models in the Yin range offer dimming functionality. Check the specification data or contact us to confirm whether this specific 12W 4000K model supports dimming, as compatibility varies by product code.

Can it be used in bathrooms?

No. The IP20 rating limits the Yin to dry interior spaces only. For bathroom zones, an IP44 or IP65 rated downlight is required depending on proximity to showers and baths.

What is the beam angle?

The deep conical reflector produces a relatively narrow, concentrated beam that directs light downward into the task area. This makes the Yin suitable for focused task lighting rather than broad ambient wash.
