In brief
The DALI downlight 13W module in 2700K warm white delivers 1085 lumens with a spectrometrically verified CRI 98 – digitally dimmable via DALI/DALI-2 with individual addressing for lighting scenes. The module is compatible with 14 selectable bezel variants: round Ø90mm or square 90x90mm, IP20 or IP65 rated, in white, black, matt stainless steel, or two discreet hotel bezels. Thanks to CRI 98 (well above the commonly advertised CRI90 standard) and DALI-2 lighting scenes, this module is the preferred choice for KNX-DALI installations, fine hospitality and dining.

Applications & Premium Projects
One Module for Demanding Lighting Projects
As a DALI downlight 13W in 2700K, this module combines a strong 1085 lumens with the flexibility of a professional DALI lighting control system. Since the module is compatible with all 14 bezel variants, it adapts to almost any installation situation – from a dry loft ceiling to a damp-rated outdoor area.
-
KNX-DALI building installations: Digital individual addressing via DALI-2 makes this module the natural choice for projects with a KNX gateway and centralised lighting scene control.
-
Hospitality: CRI 98 delivers a warm, high-quality light in lobbies, corridors and rooms – available with the specially developed hotel bezels for an almost invisible transition into the ceiling.
-
Restaurants & dining areas: True-to-life colour rendering makes food look appetising, while DALI lighting scenes seamlessly adjust the mood from lunch service to evening dining.
-
Residential & commercial areas: 2700K warm white creates a cosy, classic incandescent-like lighting atmosphere for living spaces, hallways and reception areas.
CRI 98 Light Quality – Well Beyond the CRI90 Standard
Many suppliers already advertise CRI90 as a quality feature – an established industry threshold for good colour rendering. The 13W module in the Titan Spots range goes well beyond that: with a spectrometrically verified CRI of 98, the LED module reproduces the full colour spectrum of natural sunlight almost perfectly.
Particularly critical spectral ranges such as the R9 value (saturated red) are well above 90. For hotel lobbies, restaurants and upmarket living spaces, this means skin tones, fabrics, wood tones and food are rendered in their full, true brilliance – regardless of the dimming level set via DALI.

Intelligent Lighting Control with DALI & KNX
DALI is the specialised standard for intelligent lighting management, allowing each luminaire to be individually controlled, dimmed, or grouped into lighting scenes. KNX serves as an overarching building control system that intelligently connects various trades such as lighting, heating and shading. The combination of both systems via a gateway is why this module is especially common in professional KNX-DALI installations – from hotel rooms to conference rooms.
Since the DALI bus runs as its own 2-core control line separate from the mains supply, the wiring differs from the phase-controlled TRIAC version of this module: anyone switching from TRIAC to DALI needs to run an additional DALI bus line to the distribution board or gateway, alongside the mains cable.
Sustainability Through a Modular System
The bezel, LED module and DALI driver in this downlight are connected modularly rather than permanently glued or soldered together. In the rare event of a fault, each component can be individually replaced and serviced without having to replace the entire luminaire.
This design gives you long-term flexibility: if your interior style changes later, the bezel can easily be swapped for a different colour or model from the bezel selector above – the housing, module and ceiling cut-out remain unchanged.
Lighting Expertise Why Titan Spots Are Frequently Installed in KNX-DALI Systems, Hotels & Restaurants
The Titan Spots range was developed for projects where light quality and controllability matter equally. In practice, we see three applications particularly often:
-
KNX-DALI building installations: A KNX-DALI gateway allows all modules to be individually addressed and integrated into centrally programmed lighting scenes – the foundation of modern building automation in office and residential properties.
-
Hospitality: From the lobby to the guest room, hotel projects demand consistently high colour rendering and flicker-free dimming across many luminaires – exactly what DALI-2 with CRI 98 is designed for. The purpose-built hotel bezels add a particularly discreet, almost invisible ceiling finish.
-
Restaurants & fine dining: CRI 98 makes food and drinks look true to life, while DALI lighting scenes shift the room's mood from bright lunch service to dimmed evening dining – with no rewiring, at the touch of a button.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What cut-out diameter do I need for this 13W DALI module?
This depends on the bezel variant you choose: the round bezels (Ø90mm) require a cut-out of 72–85 mm, while the square bezels (90x90mm) need a comparable cut-out in the same range. Select your preferred variant in the bezel selector above.
Can I freely choose between all 14 bezel variants, independent of the LED module?
Yes. The 13W DALI module in 2700K is compatible with all bezels shown: round or square, IP20 or IP65, in white, black, matt stainless steel, and the two hotel bezel variants. The bezel, LED module and driver are all modular.
Is this module also suitable for hotel and hospitality projects?
Yes, particularly well. The combination of CRI 98, digital DALI-2 individual addressing for lighting scenes, and the availability of discreet hotel bezels makes this module a preferred choice for hotel lobbies, restaurants and fine dining venues – especially in combination with KNX-DALI building control systems.
I have a KNX smart home automation system. Can I integrate this DALI luminaire with it?
Yes, that works. This DALI luminaire can be integrated into a new or existing KNX bus system via a suitable KNX-DALI gateway – which is exactly why it is frequently used in professional KNX installations.
I have a DALI-1 bus system. Can I still install this 13W module?
Yes, the included DALI-2 driver is fully backwards-compatible with DALI-1 networks. Alternatively, the driver can also be controlled directly via PUSH dimming (a simple, unilluminated switch) if no bus system is available.
What is the difference between this DALI module and the TRIAC version of the 13W module?
Both variants deliver the same light quality (13W, 2700K, CRI 98). The difference lies in the dimming technology: DALI enables digital individual addressing, grouping into lighting scenes, and a particularly smooth, flicker-free dimming curve – ideal for KNX integration or projects with many luminaires. TRIAC dims via classic phase-cut and requires no separate bus line, but cannot be individually addressed.
Do I need to install additional cabling when switching from TRIAC to DALI?
Yes. The DALI bus requires its own 2-core control line separate from the 230V mains supply. Anyone switching from the TRIAC version of this module to DALI needs to run this additional bus line to the distribution board or DALI gateway.
What does CRI 98 mean compared to the commonly advertised CRI90 standard?
CRI90 is already considered a high-quality threshold in the lighting industry. This module clearly exceeds it with CRI 98: skin tones, fabrics and materials are rendered almost as they appear in natural daylight – particularly relevant in hotel lobbies, in front of mirrors, or when presenting food in hospitality settings.
Can the DALI luminaires be individually addressed and controlled?
Yes. Each DALI-2 control gear receives its own unique short address on the DALI bus during commissioning. This allows each downlight to be individually programmed, dimmed, or flexibly grouped into lighting scenes via software, without rewiring.
Can I reorder the bezel, LED module or driver separately if a part is faulty?
Yes. The modular design allows the bezel, LED module and DALI driver to be reordered independently of one another. In the rare event of a fault, the entire luminaire does not need to be replaced.
Can I change the bezel later if my interior style changes?
Yes. The bezel, housing and LED module are modular. If your interior style changes later, the bezel can easily be swapped for a different colour or model from the bezel selector above, without altering the existing ceiling cut-out.
