Light distribution
Ambient lighting produced by wide beam light distribution.
Wide beam, rotationally symmetrical light distribution for general lighting.
As an approximate luminaire distance (d) between two luminaires, the height (h) of the luminaire above the working plane can be used. The intersecting beams produce excellent uniformity. The recommended offset from the wall is half the luminaire spacing.
Rough guide: d ≤ 1.5 x h
Application area: as ambient lighting in the room and as flexible illumination of office workplaces.
Ambient lighting produced by wide beam light distribution.
Wide axially symmetrical light distribution for general lighting.
To achieve a high level of uniformity and good facial recognition when illuminating office workstations, up to 1.5 times the height (h) of the luminaire above the working plane can be used for the spacing (d) between two luminaires. The intersecting beams produce excellent uniformity. The recommended offset from the wall is half the luminaire spacing.
Rough guide: d ≤ 1.5 x h
Application area: flexible lighting for office workplaces.
Linear general lighting for spatial structuring and the illumination of zones and pathways.
Axially symmetrical light distribution for linear lighting.
Mounted in a row, the oval beams generate linear illumination, for example for circulation areas in the office or for hallways. As an approximate luminaire distance (d) between two luminaires, 1.5 times the height (h) of the luminaire above the working plane can be used.
Rough guide: d ≤ 1.5 x h
Vertical illuminance for brightening and dividing the space.
Axially symmetrical light distribution for illumination of parallel walls in corridors and hallways.
For the uniform vertical lighting of opposite walls, the distance to the wall (a) on both sides with Compar double wallwashers should be around one third of the room height (h). The luminaires should always be positioned on the central axis between the walls.
Arrangement: a = 1/3 x h
For good longitudinal uniformity, the spacing (d) of Compar lens wallwashers may be up to 1.3 times the offset from the wall (a).
Arrangement: d ≤ 1.3 x a
Optimal wall distances and luminaire spacing values for individual products are specified in the wallwasher tables at erco.com and on the product data sheets.
