Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Cooper Lighting is recalling approximately 21,000 Portfolio 7-inch diameter aluminum reflectors with glass lenses designed for commercial indoor light fixtures. These reflectors, which feature four attachment springs on their lip, can detach from the fixture and fall to the ground. The company has received 23 reports of these reflectors falling, although no injuries have been reported. These units were sold through authorized distributors nationwide from May 2008 through February 2012 for between $50 and $100.

Risk

The reflector can unexpectedly fall out of its ceiling fixture to the ground, posing a risk of impact or laceration injuries to anyone standing below. This failure occurs in units that do not have a specific barcoded stamp on their exterior surface.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately inspect all circular, 7-inch diameter Portfolio aluminum reflectors with glass lenses in your facility to see if they are affected by this recall.
  2. Check the outside surface of the reflector for a barcoded stamp; if a barcoded stamp is present, the reflector is NOT part of this recall and no further action is needed.
  3. If the reflector does NOT have a barcoded stamp on its outside surface, maintenance personnel should immediately remove the unit from the light fixture.
  4. Contact Cooper Lighting at (800) 954-7228 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, or visit www.cooperlighting.com to receive free replacement springs for affected units.
  5. Identify recalled reflectors by checking if they are used in lighting fixtures with the following model numbers: C7018*, C7042*, C7113*, C7118*, C7126*, C7142*, C7213*, C7218*, C7226*, C7242*HD7*, and MD7*.
  6. For additional questions, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772.

Your Remedy Options
