RAB R34S-6-B 6 in Square Smooth Retrofit Downlight — 9W / 900 lm / Selectable CCT / 120V / Black

The RAB R34S-6-B is a 6 in square smooth retrofit downlight in black finish, designed as an economical CCT-adjustable replacement for traditional 75W incandescent recessed fixtures. Smooth flat profile polycarbonate lens diffuser, UV-resistant polycarbonate construction, and E26 Edison base adapter for compatibility with most standard recessed can housings. Field-selectable CCT via dip switch — 5 color temperatures in 1 SKU. 120V input. Wet rated. California Title 20 compliant.

Light Output & Performance

The R34S-6-B delivers 900 lm at 9W (100 lm/W), replacing a 75W incandescent at a fraction of the energy cost. The 90° beam angle and smooth flat profile polycarbonate diffuser provide even, uniform illumination suited to general lighting applications. With a CRI of 90 and R9 >50, colors render accurately across all five CCT settings — measured output ranging from 937 lm (5000K) to 1,009 lm (3500K). The <4-step MacAdam Ellipse binning ensures consistent fixture-to-fixture color uniformity across all CCTs. Color temperature is warranted to shift no more than 200K over 5 years.

Electrical & Installation

The R34S-6-B operates on 120V input at 70mA with a constant current driver. TRIAC/ELV dimmable to 10% — see the RAB Dimmer Compatibility List for compatible dimmers. PF ≥0.7, flicker ≤30%. Wet rated for dry, damp, and wet environments. IC rating depends on the recessed housing used. Not air tight. Rated for operation from -4°F to 104°F. Installs via E26 Edison base into most standard recessed can housings — no special housing required.
