RAB WFRLA Adjustable Gimbal Wafer Downlight — 4 in / 6 in | Selectable CCT | 120V | White
The RAB WFRLA family is an adjustable gimbal back-lit wafer downlight in white finish, available in 4 in and 6 in aperture sizes. The ultra-low-profile wafer design mounts directly to the ceiling — no recessed housing or junction box required — making it ideal for both new construction and retrofit applications in shallow ceiling cavities. Each size features field-selectable CCT (2700K–5000K) via integrated dipswitch, 360° rotation and 25° tilt for full directional flexibility, and UL Listed wet location rating. Both sizes are IC rated, ENERGY STAR Version 2.2 certified, and Title 24 JA8 compliant.
Key Features
- Gimbal: 360° rotation and 25° tilt on both sizes for full directional flexibility
- No Housing Required: Mounts directly to ceiling; no recessed housing or J-box needed — ideal for shallow ceiling cavities and retrofit installs
- Field-Selectable CCT: Dip-switch adjustable between 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K; 5 CCTs in 1 SKU
- Lumen Output by Size: 4 in up to 710 lm | 6 in up to 1,075 lm (both at 4000K peak)
- CRI: 90 for high color accuracy on both sizes
- Dimming: TRIAC and ELV compatible on both sizes; see RAB Dimmer Compatibility List
- Voltage: 120V
- Base Type: E26 socket; wire leads and connector included
- Housing: Anti-UV plastic; shallow smooth baffle trim for low-profile installation
- IC Rated: Suitable for direct contact with insulation on both sizes
- Airtight: Airtight rated per ASTM E283
- Certifications: ENERGY STAR Version 2.2, Title 24 JA8, UL Listed (wet locations), RoHS compliant, FCC Part 15 compliant
- Warranty: 5-year no-compromise warranty
Smart & Control Features
Both WFRLA sizes are compatible with TRIAC and ELV dimming systems at 120V. CCT is field-adjustable via a dip-switch mounted on the housing — select from 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K at installation. The remote driver box features quick connectors, knockouts, and daisy-chain wiring capability, and also accepts an emergency backup unit.
Construction & Design
Each WFRLA fixture features an anti-UV plastic housing with a smooth round trim in white finish and a regressed convex polycarbonate lens for smooth, diffuse light distribution with a lamp-like appearance. The wafer’s ultra-low profile allows installation in shallow ceiling cavities where standard recessed downlights cannot fit.
Light Output & Performance by Size
- 4 in (8W): Up to 710 lm | Up to 89 lm/W | 60W CFL equiv. | Weight: 0.9 lbs
- 6 in (12W): Up to 1,075 lm | Up to 90 lm/W | 75W CFL equiv. | Weight: 1.2 lbs
Both sizes: 90 CRI, 25° tilt + 360° rotation, 50,000-hour L70 lifespan per IES LM-70.
Electrical & Installation
Both sizes operate on 120V with a Constant Current driver. TRIAC and ELV dimmable. Mount directly to ceiling without recessed housing or J-box — E26 socket with wire leads and connector included. IC rated for direct insulation contact; airtight certified. THD ≤20%; Power Factor ≥0.9; Operating Temperature: -4°F to 104°F (-20°C to 40°C).
