RAB SWISHAIR1X4/PIR SWISH AIR LED Troffer — 35W/26W/18W Selectable — 3500K/4000K/5000K — PIR Sensor — White

The RAB SWISHAIR1X4/PIR is a 1×4 recessed LED air-return troffer with a factory-installed Passive Infrared (PIR) occupancy sensor, designed for commercial T-grid ceilings requiring integrated HVAC return-air functionality and occupancy-based energy control. Wattage is field-selectable between 35W (factory default), 26W, and 18W, and CCT is field-selectable between 3500K, 4000K (factory default), and 5000K — both via onboard switch, no tools required. At peak output, the fixture delivers 4,923 lumens at 35W / 4000K with a peak efficacy of 153.0 lm/W at 18W / 4000K. The SWISHAIR1X4/PIR operates on 120–277V with a 0–10V dimming driver and is UL Listed for dry and damp locations and DLC 5.1 Listed as Ultra-Efficient Premium. Replaces conventional fluorescent 1×4 troffer fixtures.

Smart & Control Features

The SWISHAIR1X4/PIR includes a factory-installed Passive Infrared occupancy sensor and supports 0–10V dimming. The PIR sensor detects occupancy via heat differential and requires direct line of sight — ideal for corridors and open-plan spaces without partition obstructions. Sensor defaults: Motion Sensitivity High · 100% brightness when triggered · 20-min hold time · 20% standby dim · 1-min standby time · Daylight Disabled. Settings adjustable via MSR1 remote accessory (sold separately).
