LED FILTERS
If there’s one problem that lighting designers can relate to, it’s the dramatic change in hue that occurs when
a coloured filter is placed in front of a cool white LED fitting. And the issue is only exacerbated when
combining cool white LED and tungsten light sources, making it almost impossible to match the colours.
Existing LEE 126 on tungsten (left hand side) and cool white LED (right hand side).
The colour is totally different.
With cool white LED systems increasing in use, it became obvious that something had to be done, so the
technicians at LEE Filters came up with a solution: the LED Filter range. These filters are designed to produce the
same colour on a cool white LED (>6000K) as their tungsten-lighting equivalent. Try to think of them as a range of
colour-corrected filters, as opposed to those that are colour temperature corrected.
Existing LEE 126 on tungsten (left hand side) and new LED CL126 on cool white LED
(right hand side). There is now a good visual colour match.

Cool LED Light Red
Because the white light emitted from an LED fixture has a strong blue cast, it appears cold
when compared with a tungsten white light. In order to overcome this problem, LEE Filters
has introduced the LED CTO Filter range (CTO stands for Colour Temperature Orange), which
is designed to give the white light from an LED source a more tungsten-like warmth.
In effect, the filters take the 5000K to 7000K colour temperature of an LED source and
convert them to the appearance of a 3200K tungsten source. This allows lighting designers
to mix the two sources without the viewer or camera picking up on any difference.

Extend the life of coloured

Our pre-assembled sleeves are delivered ready to use. Made from a thermally stable,
electrically insulating polycarbonate, the sleeves are capped at the ends, allowing them to
be fixed easily to the fluorescent tube. The sleeves are available in standard lengths for T5,
T8 and T12 diameter tubes.
Please contact us if you intend to use sleeves on high-output T5 tubes, as not all of them are
suitable: the extreme heat at either end of these tubes can cause the filter to discolour.

There’s an easy way to increase the

Another effect that works well with

Warming filters (CT Orange) are ideal for warming up a cool light source, such as an LED
light. In addition, they can also be used as a warm amber colour in their own right, or to
reduce the overall colour temperature of a light source.
Cooling filters (CT Blue) are designed to cool a light source. They can also be used as a
stand-alone cool blue colour, or to convert tungsten light to daylight.
The UV Blocker absorbs ultra-violet light, while the Hot Mirror reflects heat back into the
light source.

Sometimes, colour alone isn’t the sole consideration – the quality
of the light is just as important. For a diffused light, the LEE
Frosted Colour Dichroic filters provide colour and softness in one
filter. Colour coated on one side and diffused on the other, the
filters – which are available in every colour in the glass series – are
capable of withstanding temperatures up to 371°C, making them
particularly resistant to fading.
Unfrosted Glass
Frosted Colour Dichroic Glass filters are available for MR16 and
