{"product_id":"skylume-pt-hanging-wire-artificial-skylight","title":"SkyLume PT — Ultra-Thin Hanging Wire Panel","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe sky, suspended. 36mm thin.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"opacity:0.7;font-size:1.1em;line-height:1.6\"\u003eThe SkyLume PT recreates the phenomenon of Rayleigh scattering — the same optical principle that makes Earth's atmosphere appear blue — inside an ultra-thin LED panel just 36 millimeters deep. Suspended by architectural hanging wires, it transforms any ceiling into an open sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Concept\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"opacity:0.85;line-height:1.7\"\u003eConventional artificial skylights require deep ceiling voids, complex framing, and professional installation. The SkyLume PT abandons that paradigm entirely. At just 36mm, it is among the thinnest artificial sky panels available anywhere — thin enough to mount flush against virtually any ceiling without recessing, thick enough to house the precision-engineered optical stack that produces a convincing sky effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"opacity:0.85;line-height:1.7\"\u003eThe modular keel system is the structural backbone of the PT series. Extruded aluminum T-bar rails accept individual sky panels in a snap-fit arrangement, allowing you to combine multiple units into expansive sky arrays. A single 300x600mm panel suits a reading nook; a grid of 600x1200mm panels can blanket an entire open-plan office. The keel connectors handle alignment, wiring continuity, and structural load — you simply slide panels in and connect power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"opacity:0.85;line-height:1.7\"\u003eEvery PT panel ships with stainless steel hanging wire kits rated for permanent overhead installation. The hanging height is adjustable from 50mm to 500mm, giving you freedom to create layered ceiling planes or mount nearly flush to the slab above. Because the keel system distributes weight evenly, even large arrays remain rigid and vibration-free once tensioned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"opacity:0.85;line-height:2\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRayleigh Scattering Optics\u003c\/strong\u003e — Multi-layer nano-particle diffuser reproduces the spectral gradient of a clear midday sky, shifting naturally from deep blue at zenith to warm white at the horizon edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-Thin 36mm Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e — The thinnest panel in the SkyLume range.

Home offices and basement studios gain a psychological connection to the outdoors. Windowless bathrooms and interior corridors feel open rather than enclosed.

When white LED light passes through this film, shorter blue wavelengths scatter more than longer wavelengths — precisely replicating Rayleigh scattering, the phenomenon responsible for blue sky in nature. The result is a luminous surface that appears to have depth and atmospheric color, rather than the flat, uniform glow of a conventional panel light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:12px;padding:14px;border:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.2);border-radius:8px\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600\"\u003eIs 36mm thin enough for my ceiling?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top:8px;opacity:0.85\"\u003eAt 36mm, the PT is thinner than most recessed downlight cans. It does not require any ceiling void at all — it hangs from wires or mounts directly to a surface. Even in rooms with minimal clearance above a drop ceiling, the PT fits comfortably. The hanging wire system allows you to position it anywhere from nearly flush to 500mm below the mounting surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:12px;padding:14px;border:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.2);border-radius:8px\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600\"\u003eCan I connect multiple panels together?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top:8px;opacity:0.85\"\u003eYes. The modular keel system is specifically designed for multi-panel arrays. Keel rail segments connect end-to-end with inline couplers, and panels snap into the rails in sequence. Power can be daisy-chained through the keel channel, and BLE Mesh allows all panels to synchronize scenes and dimming levels automatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:12px;padding:14px;border:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.2);border-radius:8px\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600\"\u003eHow bright is the PT panel?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top:8px;opacity:0.85\"\u003eThe 300x600mm panel produces 1,720 lumens at 40W. The 600x600mm delivers 2,580 lumens at 60W. The largest 600x1200mm outputs 5,000 lumens at 100W. For context, a typical 2x4-foot office troffer produces around 4,000 lumens, so the PT 600x1200 exceeds that while also providing realistic sky simulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:12px;padding:14px;border:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.2);border-radius:8px\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600\"\u003eCan I dim it and change color temperature?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top:8px;opacity:0.85\"\u003eAbsolutely.

The 0-10V input works with any standard low-voltage dimmer or automation controller.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:12px;padding:14px;border:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.2);border-radius:8px\"\u003e\n  \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;font-weight:600\"\u003eHow does it compare to CoeLux?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-top:8px;opacity:0.85\"\u003eCoeLux systems use physical nano-particle layers and require 300-900mm of ceiling depth, professional installation, and budgets starting above $6,000. The SkyLume PT achieves a comparable visual effect using advanced optical film technology in just 36mm, at a fraction of the cost, with a modular system you can install yourself. While CoeLux produces a single fixed sun direction, the PT offers tunable color temperature and programmable scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:center;margin-top:32px;padding:20px;border-top:1px solid rgba(128,128,128,0.15)\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"opacity:0.6;margin:0\"\u003eExtoril — Engineered Light, Designed for Life\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"opacity:0.5;margin:4px 0 0 0;font-size:0.9em\"\u003eProfessional-grade artificial skylights backed by 3-year warranty and dedicated support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Extoril","offers":[{"title":"300×600mm (1×2 ft)","offer_id":57389864845656,"sku":"SKYLUME-PT-300X600","price":389.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"600×600mm (2×2 ft)","offer_id":57389905314136,"sku":"SKYLUME-PT-600X600","price":563.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"600×1200mm (2×4 ft)","offer_id":57389905346904,"sku":"SKYLUME-PT-600X1200","price":780.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/6366\/8824\/files\/PT_main.jpg?v=1779990041","url":"https:\/\/extoril.com\/products\/skylume-pt-hanging-wire-artificial-skylight","provider":"Extoril","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
