KRONE P097PL-L36BS3K1 is a pendant lamp shaped as a closed ring 62 cm across. The metal frame is brass-coloured and carries transparent crystal elements set asymmetrically around the whole circumference. The ring hangs on thin cables from a round ceiling canopy 17 cm in diameter.
How large it is and where to hang it
The ring measures 62 cm in diameter and only 7.6 cm in height, so from the side it is barely there — the shape works mainly when seen from below. Minimum suspension height is 50 cm from the ceiling and is adjusted by shortening the support cables. Above a table the lower edge is usually set 70–80 cm over the tabletop: the light then covers the whole surface without shining into the eyes of anyone seated.
Compare the 62 cm diameter with the width of your own tabletop before choosing the hanging point. The fitting weighs 4.2 kg, so a plasterboard ceiling needs a fixing anchored to the supporting structure. The 17 cm canopy covers a standard installation box.
How much light it gives and of what kind
Light comes from a built-in LED module drawing 36 W and delivering 2340 lm. That is main-lighting level — one fitting covers a dining area and needs no additional light points. The 3000 K colour temperature is warm white: warmer than daylight, but without the distinctly yellow cast of an old incandescent bulb.
A colour rendering index of Ra 90 means the colours of food, fabric and wood look almost as they do in daylight. The crystals spread the beam wide — the manufacturer states 180°, so light travels downwards and sideways. The LED module is permanently built in and cannot be replaced; the manufacturer rates it at 50,000 hours. The fitting is not dimmable.
Build and installation
The frame is metal finished in brass colour, and the decoration is transparent crystal. The fitting runs on 220–240 V and belongs to protection class I, so an earth conductor is required — in an older two-core installation this needs checking before mounting. The IP20 rating settles that KRONE belongs in dry interiors only.
The energy efficiency class of the fitting is G. The manufacturer intends it above a dining table and in a living room. The form is modernist — a clean circle with no ornament in the structure — and the brass frame paired with crystal comes close to glamour styling.
