FX Luminaire NR-ZDC-AB — Copper/Brass Luxor ZDC Color-Changing Up Light
The FX Luminaire NR-ZDC-AB is the copper-and-brass NR up light with
an integrated Luxor® ZDC (Zone / Dim / Color) RGBW board. Pair it with a Luxor ZDC
controller to zone fixtures, dim in 1% steps, and dial more than 30,000 custom colors
— no color filters required. Copper/brass construction is the coastal and
harsh-environment version of the popular NP up light.
This listing is the Antique Bronze (AB) finish with
the standard (flat) shroud and factory ZDC LED. ProAim™ adjustability, a 10′
lead, lock ring, and ground spike are included.

Compatible Systems
ZDC color, zoning, and dimming require an FX Luminaire Luxor® ZDC controller
(specified separately). The fixture still needs a 11–15V low-voltage landscape
transformer — Luxor, PX, or DX. Standard (non-ZDC) phase dimmers do not drive
the RGBW board.
Applications
- Color-changing up-lighting for trees, canopies, and landscape specimens
- Accenting facades, columns, and stonework on a Luxor ZDC system
- Coastal and high-humidity sites that need copper/brass construction
- Designs that want 30,000+ custom colors without snap-in filters
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the FX Luminaire NR-ZDC-AB work without a Luxor controller?
The fixture needs 11–15V power from a landscape transformer. Zoning, dimming,
and RGBW color require a Luxor ZDC controller. Without Luxor ZDC you will not get
color control from this board.
What finish is NR-ZDC-AB?
Antique Bronze. The NR family is copper and brass (not powder-coated aluminum). Natural
copper weathers; antique bronze is a sealed antique finish over copper/brass.
How is NR-ZDC different from a standard NR 3LED / 9LED fixture?
Standard and ZD NR fixtures use a fixed 2700K board and include color filters. The
ZDC SKU uses an RGBW board (140–480 lm, 50° beam, 11.0 VA) and creates
custom colors from the Luxor controller — no filters required.
Is this the long-shroud (LS) version?
No. NR-ZDC-AB is the standard / flat shroud (about 7.0" tall). Long-shroud NR
fixtures are ordered as a separate LS configuration.
What transformer do I need?
Any 11–15V low-voltage landscape transformer sized for the 11.0 VA load per
fixture, plus a Luxor ZDC controller if you want zoning, dimming, and color.
