With more than 20 years of experience behind us here at LED Controls, we’ve always taken care to provide a comprehensive range of factory automation equipment and components, and lighting comprises a core part of our offering. So this week, we’re turning the spotlight on one of our most popular lighting solutions, a go-to favourite of customers across the UK. Allow us to illuminate you on the Finder 7L Series of panel lights!

What are the Finder 7L Series of panel lights?

In a nutshell, Finder's 7L Series LED panel lights are a high-performance solution designed for versatile commercial and industrial applications. Designed and manufactured by Finder Plc, these panel lights are widely known for their energy efficiency – capable of providing bright, uniform illumination while consuming minimal energy compared to traditional options. Featuring a slim, modern design, the 7L Series integrates seamlessly into a wide variety of settings and environments, ensuring easy installation and low maintenance.

Available in a range of sizes, wattages, and colour temperatures, the 7L Series enhances the overall lighting quality of workspaces and professional settings. Crucially, these lights are engineered for reliable, long-lasting performance, making them adaptable to diverse lighting needs.

What are the most common applications for the 7L Finder Lights?

The 7L Series LED panel lights are widely used across a range of sectors, including education, healthcare and retail, but they offer several specific advantages that significantly benefit industrial and commercial sectors – largely because of their durability, energy efficiency, and ease of use.

Finder's 7L Series LED panel lights are especially useful for illuminating enclosures, such as electrical cabinets and machinery housings (which is what the majority of our customers use them for here at LED Controls). Enclosures often contain critical components that require clear visibility for maintenance and inspection tasks. The 7L Series provides bright, uniform lighting inside these confined spaces, making it easier to work on complex equipment and ensure all components are functioning correctly.

Plus, the LED panels’ durability and low heat emission are particularly advantageous in enclosures, as they help maintain a stable environment and reduce the risk of overheating. This ensures that maintenance personnel can efficiently perform their tasks with minimal risk and improved safety, ultimately contributing to the reliability and longevity of the enclosed systems.

And of course, the IP65 rating of these lights ensures that they can easily withstand dust and moisture, minimising their maintenance needs and prolonging their lifespan in challenging conditions.

Another key benefit of the 7L Series is its energy efficiency, helping to lower operational costs by reducing electricity consumption. This efficiency is complemented by the minimal heat emission of the lights. The durability of the lights, along with their long lifespan, further minimises the frequency of replacements and maintenance, ensuring reliable performance and reduced long-term costs.

Aside from enclosures, some of the most common applications of the 7L series of lights include:

  • On production lines – bright, even illumination is essential for precision and reducing errors during assembly and manufacturing processes.
    In storage areas – they provide enhanced visibility across extensive shelves and aisles, helping to ensure efficient inventory management.
  • In workshops – where high-quality lighting improves safety and working conditions, making it easier to complete detailed and intricate tasks.
  • In loading dock areas – where they can illuminate critical processes during receiving and dispatching goods, improving safety and streamlining operations.
  • In quality control areas – where consistent lighting can help ensure thorough inspection processes, and make it easier to spot any defects.

As we touched on above, they’re designed by Finder Plc, an international leader with over 70 years of experience, the 7L Series is renowned for its excellence in illuminating machinery and electrical panels. We are proud to be one of Finder’s official UK distributors at LED Controls, enabling us to offer these lights at the very best prices.
