LEDVANCE shines a light on storage and production solutions

LEDVANCE is showcasing a range of lighting solutions to satisfy the unique requirements of production and storage facilities . Visual performance , comfort and ambience are key to such environments , and are impacted by the illumination level , quality of glare and brightness distribution of their lighting installations .
The requirements for a lighting system in a storage environment are diverse and a flexible system that can be easily adapted to changes in working processes is essential . The TruSys FLEX DALI system is an ideal lighting control for an entire building that can manage over 1000 individually addressed luminaires across rooms and floors , operated by simply using a pushbutton or app for smartphones / tablets . Energy-saving LED technology provides 44 FDPP - www . fdpp . co . uk continuous operation and homogenous light distribution , with tool-free click into place solutions for an easy installation . Flexible application is possible due to a range of different lumen packages and beam angles .
A typical high-bay warehouse is characterised by high ceilings , narrow aisles and hardly any natural daylight . In addition , the large difference in brightness between indoor and outdoor areas produces a high risk of accidents in entrances and exits . Even from an exceptional ceiling height of nine metres , the LEDVANCE High Bay DALI LED luminaires provide uniformly good illumination , and the daylight control of the DALI-2 drivers enables additional potential for energy savings . The luminaires can be combined with VIVARES DALI light management , including presence and daylight control , for ultimate efficiency . For harsh industrial environments , the luminaires carry increased shock resistance ( IK08 ), dust-proof design and protection against water jets ( IP65 ).
In a production environment , the demands for a lighting system are varied : from rough manual work to fine assembly activities and visual inspections . The LEDVANCE DAMP PROOF Gen 2 DALI meets all these requirements with its high protection against shock , dust and water . It is fitted with easy to open / close stainless-steel fasteners without sharp edges , and holes for anti-vandalism screws . In a recent installation by LEDVANCE , a production facility measured an increase in illuminance of 20 %, coupled with an impressive
