<strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> uses state-of-the-art<br />
MicroPrism Technology (<strong>MPT</strong>) to<br />
achieve the best of both worlds:<br />
high lighting performance and<br />
low glare ratings<br />
The <strong>MPT</strong> optic directs light<br />
to the task area and reduces<br />
light at high angles that would<br />
otherwise cause glare and<br />
uncomfortable reflections.<br />
The result is more light where<br />
it is needed, which can be<br />
controlled by a MiniSensa to<br />
provide light only when needed<br />
for optimal energy usage.<br />
As a result, <strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> not<br />
only provides aesthetic looks<br />
and pleasant illumination, but<br />
energy efficiencies according<br />
to current regulations.<br />
• Minimalist and slim design<br />
(35mm) for modern office<br />
architecture<br />
• MicroPrism Technology optics<br />
concentrate light on the work<br />
area and eliminate glare<br />
• Uplight/downlight:<br />
60/40%<br />
• UGR < 13<br />
• Lamps replaced from above<br />
• Digital dimmable<br />
ballast and MiniSensa<br />
solution available<br />
• 3 hour SelfTest or<br />
Addressable Test<br />
The design of the <strong>MPT</strong> optics will limit the<br />
exit angle of the refracted light<br />
Performance, Efficiency and Comfort (PEC) –<br />
for a better lit environment<br />
<strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> evokes the spirit of <strong>Thorn</strong> <strong>Lighting</strong>’s<br />
dynamic, results-orientated PEC programme<br />
The programme is based on<br />
the principle that Performance,<br />
Efficiency and Comfort determine<br />
the effectiveness of lighting,<br />
its impact on the people using<br />
it, and its impact on the natural<br />
environment. <strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> delivers<br />
the right light on the right place<br />
at the right time.<br />
Performance: providing the<br />
best visual effectiveness<br />
• Well-illuminated workplaces<br />
improve task performance and<br />
occupant wellbeing. A UGR<br />
< 13 for the <strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong><br />
enhances task performance<br />
and wellbeing<br />
• The balance of uplight and<br />
downlight creates a stimulating<br />
environment and the use of<br />
T16 (T5) lamps gives good<br />
colour rendering<br />
• <strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> lighting<br />
schemes meet task and<br />
uniformity requirements for<br />
different applications<br />
Efficiency: conserving energy<br />
and effort, reducing CO 2<br />
emissions<br />
and waste, providing lighting that<br />
is practical and efficient to install,<br />
operate and maintain<br />
• <strong>Lighting</strong> accounts for about half<br />
of total electricity consumption<br />
in modern office buildings.<br />
<strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> optimises energy<br />
consumption by focusing light<br />
onto the task area and away<br />
from the discomfort glare angles<br />
• Digital dimmable ballasts and<br />
built-in sensors reduce power<br />
consumption even more<br />
Comfort: giving people<br />
satisfaction and stimulation<br />
• The even illuminated surface<br />
of the <strong>Planor</strong> <strong>MPT</strong> is pleasant<br />
to the eye and provides a<br />
good vertical component<br />
of illuminance, ensuring<br />
good modelling of people<br />
within a space<br />
• Being part of the <strong>Planor</strong> family<br />
allows for project integration<br />
in complete buildings, giving<br />
a modern and professional<br />
lighting solution<br />
• Lamps are hidden from<br />
direct view<br />
