Selective dimming makes
for savings
Luminaires for damp interiors with plastic housing and
fluorescent lamps can in some cases be directly replaced
by wide-beam LED luminaires. Professional lighting
design is absolutely essential here to ensure standard
compliance. High savings potential can be tapped by
selectively raising the lighting level only in areas where
movement is detected.
Lighting dimmed to 20 percent elsewhere is sufficient for
reliable orientation.
The entrance lighting must always be at 100 percent
when a vehicle enters or exits the facility. Lighting
management systems with DALI interface are an option
that is also recommended here.
