LED Highbay Lighting for State of the Art Sports Hall

BEKA Schréder is proud to have supplied the LED highbay lighting solution for the new state-of-the-art sports hall of the German International School Cape Town , also known as DSK .

The new sports hall is one of the

most modern and well-equipped halls of the Western Cape , if not countrywide . Some of its key features are : A gallery with space for more than 150 spectators overlooking a 23 x 44m court with a clear height of nine meters ; two automated curtain walls that divide the main court into three sections , allowing three classes to take place simultaneously ; acoustic panels ensuring that the noise levels meet DIN requirements for acoustics in school sports halls ; three basketball , three volleyball and six badminton practise courts while the main centre court offers a handball , basketball , tennis and volleyball court of international size .

Such a modern facility called for a high-quality LED lighting solution .
BEKA Schréder ’ s OMNIstar-midi was the luminaire of choice , due to its high efficiency . The required lighting levels of 900lux were achieved at very low energy consumption levels . Further energy savings can be achieved with the installed DALI lighting control system . The system enables the school to control the light level of each luminaire independently or grouped . This allows them to have the right light level depending on which sport is been played , and at which game level , namely practice or match game , or even an international event . This can be done remotely from a smart device . Thus , by selecting the required light level , energy savings are achieved by only consuming the exact amount of energy needed .
The South African designed and manufactured OMNIstar-midi is a costeffective and efficient lighting solution to maximise energy and maintenance cost savings . It is the smaller sized floodlight in BEKA Schréder ’ s OMNIstar family . The various optical solutions make it a very versatile floodlight , ensuring the correct lighting for the area to be illuminated . Various optical solutions are available to achieve the highest energy savings and the most economical lighting solution .
BEKA Schréder locally develops and manufactures energy-efficient LED lighting products , designed and suitable for local conditions . We are very proud to be associated with Claassen Auret in providing a successful lighting solution for this project .
