Lithonia DSXW1 LED Floodlight
Our DSXW1 LED floodlight brings professional-grade illumination to any outdoor space. Engineered for long-term performance, this fixture combines high-output LED technology with rugged die-cast aluminum construction to withstand harsh weather conditions.
Whether you're lighting a parking lot, building facade, or landscape feature, the DSXW1 delivers consistent, uniform light distribution with exceptional energy efficiency. We designed this floodlight for ease of installation and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for commercial properties, warehouses, and residential security applications.
- High-efficiency LED module delivers up to 70,000+ hours of rated life
- Die-cast aluminum housing with powder-coat finish resists corrosion and UV degradation
- Wide range of lumen packages available to match your specific lighting requirements
- Adjustable mounting bracket allows precise aiming and positioning
- IP65 wet location rated for all-weather outdoor installation
Construction & Weather Durability
We built the Lithonia DSXW1 LED floodlight with a precision die-cast aluminum housing that stands up to years of outdoor exposure. The powder-coat finish provides superior protection against salt spray, industrial pollutants, and UV radiation that typically degrade lesser fixtures.
The IP65 rating means this floodlight is fully sealed against dust ingress and protected from water jets from any direction. Rain, snow, and humidity won’t compromise performance or shorten the fixture’s operational life. Silicone gaskets and stainless steel hardware ensure every access point remains weather-tight throughout the product’s lifespan.
Optical Performance & Light Distribution
The DSXW1 utilizes precision-engineered optics to deliver controlled beam patterns that put light exactly where you need it. We offer multiple distribution options, from narrow spot beams for accent lighting to wide flood patterns for area coverage.
Each lithonia lighting dsxw1 fixture undergoes photometric testing to ensure consistent performance across production runs. The high-quality LED arrays produce clean white light with excellent color rendering, making this floodlight suitable for applications where color accuracy matters—retail facades, signage illumination, and architectural highlighting.
Installation Flexibility & Mounting Options
We designed the DSXW1 mounting system for quick installation and precise positioning. The included slip-fitter bracket accommodates standard pole mounting, while the integrated yoke allows for wall, ceiling, or ground installation with equal ease.
The adjustable bracket provides 180 degrees of vertical rotation and secure locking at any angle. Installers appreciate the tool-free access to the junction box and the clearly labeled wiring compartment that simplifies electrical connections.

Common Questions About the DSXW1 LED Floodlight
The lithonia lighting dsxw1 is available in multiple lumen packages ranging from approximately 5,000 to 25,000 lumens, depending on the specific model variant. The appropriate output depends on mounting height, area size, and your illumination requirements.
Our specification team can help you select the correct lumen package based on your application. For most commercial parking lots and building facades, mid-range options (10,000-15,000 lumens) provide excellent coverage. Contact us with your project details for a customized lighting layout and product recommendation.
Yes, the DSXW1 is rated for operation in ambient temperatures from -40°F to 122°F (-40°C to 50°C). The LED technology actually performs slightly better in cold weather compared to warm conditions, and the sealed housing prevents moisture infiltration that could cause internal condensation.
We've installed these fixtures successfully in northern climates where winter temperatures regularly drop below zero. The powder-coat finish and corrosion-resistant materials ensure reliable performance throughout freeze-thaw cycles without degradation.
Standard DSXW1 models feature non-dimmable drivers optimized for consistent full-output operation. However, we offer 0-10V dimmable driver options for applications requiring adjustable light levels or integration with building management systems.
Dimmable versions maintain excellent performance down to approximately 10% of full output. When specifying dimming capability, confirm the control system compatibility with our technical support team to ensure proper operation and avoid flicker issues.
The DSXW1 requires minimal maintenance due to its sealed design and long LED lifespan. We recommend periodic cleaning of the lens surface (typically annually) to remove accumulated dirt and debris that can reduce light output. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent—avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the polycarbonate lens.
Inspect mounting hardware and electrical connections during routine facility inspections. The LED module and driver are designed for 70,000+ hours of operation, eliminating the frequent lamp replacements required by HID technology. Most installations operate maintenance-free for 8-10 years under normal conditions.
Yes, the included slip-fitter bracket accommodates standard 2-3/8" tenon mounting found on most commercial light poles and arms. The bracket features set screws that secure the fixture firmly in place while allowing rotation for horizontal aiming.
For poles with different tenon sizes, adapter sleeves are available separately. The fixture can also be mounted directly to wall or ceiling surfaces using the integrated yoke mounting points. Multiple mounting options provide flexibility for retrofit projects where existing infrastructure is being reused.
The DSXW1 is available in multiple color temperatures to suit different applications. Our most common options include 4000K (neutral white) for general commercial use and 5000K (cool white) for applications requiring maximum visibility and alertness.
The 4000K option provides a balanced white light that works well for retail and hospitality applications where color rendering is important. The 5000K option delivers crisp, bright illumination preferred for security applications and industrial facilities. Both options maintain consistent color over the fixture's lifetime without the color shift common in older lighting technologies.
Yes, the lithonia lighting dsxw1 is DLC Premium listed, which qualifies it for utility rebate programs offered by most electric utilities throughout North America. Rebate amounts vary by utility provider and can range from $25 to over $100 per fixture depending on your location and the specific model installed.
We recommend contacting your local utility before purchase to understand available incentives and any pre-approval requirements. Our sales team can provide the technical documentation (specification sheets, photometric data, DLC numbers) needed to complete rebate applications. Many customers find that rebates significantly reduce their net project cost and accelerate payback periods.
