LIGHTING
Dialight will offer a version of this fixture with
onboard occupancy sensor for mounting heights
up to 12 m, to enable even greater energy
savings. The new High Output LED fixture is
designed to be utilised globally, with UL-
1598/A, CE, RCM and ENEC listings.
“Dialight’s precision optics direct the light
where it’s needed…without wasting light on the
walls or ceilings. The new High Output LED
fixture is also available with a new up-light
diffuser accessory that projects 7% of light
output upward onto the ceiling where desired.”
“This latest High Output LED fixture takes our
signature High Bay to a whole new level –
literally – to provide superior visual clarity,
efficiency and safety compared to HID
equivalents, even in the most challenging
locations,” said Marty Rapp, Dialight Group
Chief Executive. “This fixture is indicative of our
commitment to responding to our customers’
needs with flexibility and options to suit just
about any application.” The High Output LED
fixture carries an industry leading 10-year
warranty covering the entire fixture.
Dialight also offers the DuroSite ® LED
Conveyor Light. The fixture is designed
specifically for use in harsh environments all too
familiar in mining applications, where
maintenance of thousands of light fittings
installed on kilometres of conveyors and
walkways across vast sites is an expensive and
ongoing burden. Carrying a five-year warranty
the CE compliant Dialight LED Conveyor Light is
L70 rated for >100,000 hours representing
minimal lumen depreciation over the life of the
fitting. “This rating far exceeds many other
similar LED solutions and outperforms
conventional sources by up to a factor of ten. Its
robust construction means that it can withstand
the constant shock and vibration commonly
experienced in the mining environment, unlike
HID fittings that need frequent maintenance and
replacement. The IP66 sealed unit is resistant to
water and dirt ingress, optimising the longevity
of the product. With its clever mechanical
design, installation is quick and simple with
ingress protection being uncompromised during
the installation process. Designed from the
ground up to accommodate Dialight’s
proprietary long-throw optics, the compact, low-
maintenance DuroSite LED Conveyor Light looks
completely different from the traditional street
light style fixtures it is intended to replace. Its
wide angle optics enable optimised light spread
whilst avoiding light spill and glare.”
With a choice of two Wattages, the 35W version
typically replaces 70W HID solutions for 9 m
spacing, while the 60W version enables spacing
to be pushed out to 12 m at the same time
maintaining minimum light level and uniformity
requirements. The DuroSite LED Conveyor Light
operates in ambient temperatures from -40°C to
65°C, exceeding the upper temperature range of
rivals, making it suitable for use in extreme
environments. Mining installations can also benefit
from its instant-on ability, eliminating the lengthy
re-strike delays that are common with HID lighting
systems. “Considering energy savings, eliminated
maintenance and out-of-the-box installation, the
Dialight DuroSite LED Conveyor Light will pay for
itself many times over in its lifetime.”
Nordic Lights – a second nod from
Caterpillar
To be awarded a gold certificate in Caterpillar’s
Supplier Quality Excellence Process (SQEP), not
only once, but twice, isn’t done easily. Herrmans
NORDIC LIGHTS ® was awarded its second gold
certificate at the end of September 2018. “This
means that Nordic Lights meets the high
standards set by Caterpillar regarding quality,
documentation for new products and delivery
performance. The suppliers’ performance is
evaluated, and according to the level of
performance the supplier is awarded a bronze,
silver, gold or platinum certificate.”
“The gold certificate is proof that we
genuinely deliver a consistent high quality,”
says Operational Excellence Manager Matti
Leipälä. The basis for the SQEP programme is a
strategic partnership aiming at mutual
development. Nordic Lights can boast a long
history of cooperation with Caterpillar and first
