What does the IP protection rating mean?
The IP rating indicates the luminaire's level of protection against solid objects and water. For example, IP66 means that the product is fully protected against dust and resistant to powerful water jets.
What does the IK impact rating mean?
The IK rating indicates the luminaire's resistance to external mechanical impacts. A higher IK rating represents a higher level of impact resistance.
What does LED lifetime mean?
LED lifetime indicates how long the LEDs can maintain a specified level of luminous flux under defined operating conditions. Values such as L80 or L90 indicate how much of the initial luminous flux is maintained after the specified operating period.
What does the lens angle mean?
The lens angle determines how widely the light is distributed from the luminaire. Narrow beam angles concentrate the light over a smaller area, while wider angles distribute it over a larger area.
Which beam angle should I choose?
The appropriate beam angle should be selected according to the mounting height, pole spacing, dimensions of the area and required illumination level. A lighting calculation is recommended for the most suitable selection.
What is DALI?
DALI is a digital lighting control system used to control compatible luminaires. Depending on the system, it enables functions such as switching, dimming and lighting automation.
What is 1-10V dimming?
1-10V dimming is an analog control method that allows the light level of a compatible LED driver to be adjusted using an external control signal.
What is the purpose of an internal surge protector?
An internal surge protector helps protect the electronic components of the luminaire against transient overvoltage surges that may occur in the electrical network.
Can the luminaire be used outdoors?
Outdoor suitability depends on the product's IP rating, operating temperature, mechanical construction and specified operating conditions. The application areas stated in the product specifications should be considered.
Can the product remain permanently outdoors?
Products designed for outdoor use can be operated outdoors within their specified IP rating and operating conditions. Proper installation and protection of cable entries are important for maintaining the intended protection level.
