BrightLogic laundry range changes

Electronics component shortages are continuing to disrupt our supply chain and we are expecting this to challenge us for the foreseeable future. We are committed to maintaining a supply of products to our customers and have a design for disruption program to mitigate these obstacles. This initiative involves continuous monitoring of at-risk components and the proactive redesign of our electronics to accommodate suitable and equivalent alternatives.

Our BrightLogic product range has recently undergone this design for disruption process and we have taken the opportunity to introduce some additional capabilities to further improve its flexibility.

Common Questions

Do I need to order a different part number?

BrightLogic 2 parts numbers do include a ‘2’ in the suffix to allow easy identification; for example, what was a WL4 is now a WL4-2. Please update your systems but we will automatically adjust orders for original BrightLogic units. Changes will apply to all new orders with immediate effect and you will be notified directly if an existing order is affected.

Is BrightLogic 2 more expensive?

No, the pricing for BrightLogic 2 is the same as BrightLogic.

How do I identify a BrightLogic 2 from a BrightLogic 1?

Part numbers are printed on the carton label and unit label, these will show the ‘2’ suffix. In addition, the circuit boards for BrightLogic 2 are Blue.

Will the performance be affected?
