RAB SWISH1X4/MVS/E LED Center Basket Troffer — 35W / 26W / 18W Selectable — Microwave Sensor — Battery Backup — White

The RAB SWISH1X4/MVS/E is a 1×4 recessed LED center basket troffer combining a factory-installed microwave (MVS) occupancy sensor with integrated 90-minute emergency battery backup — designed for commercial interiors requiring occupancy-based energy control and life-safety code compliance. The MVS sensor detects motion through walls and partitions without requiring PIR line-of-sight. Wattage is field-selectable between 35W (factory default), 26W, and 18W, and CCT is field-selectable between 3500K, 4000K (factory default), and 5000K — no tools required. At peak output, the fixture delivers 4,923 lumens at 35W / 4000K and operates on 120–277V with a 0–10V dimming driver. The SWISH1X4/MVS/E is UL Listed for dry and damp locations and is DLC 5.1 Listed as Ultra-Efficient Premium.

Smart & Control Features

The SWISH1X4/MVS/E includes a factory-installed microwave occupancy sensor and supports 0–10V dimming. The MVS sensor detects motion via microwave signal — capable of detecting occupancy through walls and partitions where PIR line-of-sight detection is insufficient. 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).
