SAL | Wave Tri-Colour LED Downlight 9W 240V | IC-4 Rated IP44
The SAL Wave S9065TCWH is a 9W tri-colour LED downlight rated 240V, with a selectable colour temperature switch and a 92mm ceiling cut-out. The S9065TCWH carries an IC-4 rating for direct insulation contact and an IP44 rating against dust and splashing water. The downlight runs a trailing edge dimmable driver and supplies 750 to 850 lumens depending on the chosen colour temperature. The fitting ships as a complete flex-and-plug unit with the LED driver included.
Replacing an old plug-in downlight usually means matching the existing ceiling cut-out and picking a colour temperature before fit-off. The S9065TCWH sets its colour on the unit before fit-off, with warm white 3000K, cool white 4000K, and daylight 5700K on a single switch. One fitting then suits a kitchen, a hallway, or a bedroom without ordering separate colour temperatures. Its 92mm cut-out drops into the hole left by most common downlights on a refurbishment, and the IC-4 rating clears the usual worry about insulation sitting against the fitting in the ceiling cavity.
Carried as a van-stock replacement, the S9065TCWH lets a sparky set the colour temperature on the bench and clip it in without a separate globe or transformer. The flex-and-plug connection and zero-clearance IC-4 rating keep fit-off quick, with insulation free to sit over the top. The trailing edge dimmable driver dims down to low levels on a compatible LED dimmer, which suits living and bedroom circuits. One SKU covering warm, cool, and daylight jobs keeps van stock simple and holds a low price point on a lighting quote.
Features
- Tri-colour CCT switch — selects warm white 3000K, cool white 4000K, or daylight 5700K on the back of the unit before installation.
- 9W power draw — supplies 750 to 850 lumens depending on the selected colour temperature, covering general room lighting at low energy use.
- IC-4 rated — approved for direct contact with ceiling insulation, abutted and covered, so insulation can sit over the S9065TCWH.

Where to use
- Kitchen and dining lighting — the S9065TCWH gives CRI 90 output that suits food prep and dining zones where colour accuracy matters.
- Living and bedroom circuits — trailing edge dimming sets a low, comfortable level for relaxing or watching television.
- Hallways and passages — the tri-colour switch lets one fitting match the colour temperature already running through the house.
- Insulated ceilings — the IC-4 rating allows the S9065TCWH to sit under ceiling insulation in roof spaces without a clearance gap.
- Renovations and downlight swaps — the 92mm cut-out drops into the hole left by many older plug-in downlights on a refurbishment.
- Covered outdoor areas — the IP44 rating suits alfresco ceilings, porches, and eaves that are shielded from direct rain.
- Rental and project work — one stocked colour temperature covers warm and cool rooms across multiple units or stages.
The S9065TCWH is not rated for direct water jets, submersion, or fully exposed outdoor positions. Its IP44 rating covers splashing only, so it should not be installed in shower zones or unprotected outdoor locations. Set the colour temperature before fit-off, as the switch sits on the back of the unit and is not accessible once installed.
