RAB FWAFER6 6 in Smooth Trim Fire-Resistant Edge-Lit Wafer Downlight — 15W / Selectable CCT / 120V / White+Red

The RAB FWAFER6 is a 6 in round fire-resistant edge-lit wafer downlight in white+red finish with a smooth trim, delivering up to 1,378 lumens at 15W with a focused 90° beam angle and 90 CRI. Tested and certified to UL 263 and ASTM E119 for 2-hour fire resistance, this fixture is engineered for fire-rated ceiling assemblies in both new construction and retrofit applications. The slim canless design mounts directly to the ceiling — no recessed housing required. CCT is field-selectable between five color temperatures via integrated dipswitch, with TRIAC/ELV dimming at 120V.

Smart & Control Features

The FWAFER6 is compatible with TRIAC/ELV dimming systems at 120V, dimmable to 10%. CCT is field-adjustable via integrated dipswitch — select from 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K at installation.

Construction & Design

The FWAFER6 features a metal enclosure with fire-resistant red coating and a smooth trim in white+red finish with a polycarbonate lens for smooth, even illumination. Spring-loaded retention clips accommodate ceiling thicknesses from 3/8 in to 5/8 in. A round cutout template (4-5/16 in) is included in the box. The fixture can be removed from below the ceiling for service or replacement. Weight: 1.4 lbs.

Light Output & Performance

With efficacy up to 92 lm/W (4000K), a 90 CRI, R9 ≥ 50, and a focused 90° beam angle, the FWAFER6 delivers precise, high-quality downward illumination. Color temperature is warranted to shift no more than 200K over five years (4-step MacAdam Ellipse binning). Rated lifespan: 50,000 hours L70 per IES LM-70.

Electrical & Installation

Operates on 120V with a Constant Current, Class 2 driver. TRIAC/ELV dimmable to 10%. Mounts directly to ceiling via die-formed metal remote driver/J-box — no recessed housing required. IC rated; airtight certified (ASTM E283). THD ≤20%; Power Factor ≥0.9; Flicker: 5%; Operating Temperature: -4°F to 104°F (-20°C to 40°C).
