Trunking above the shelf aisles
The Series 14 trunking system is a modular system for industry, logistics and retail: light modules are positioned along the mounting rail, and three optics adapt the light to aisles and open areas. When the layout changes, the modules move with it.
- Up to 157 lm/W and 100,000 hours service life (L80B10)
- DALI or 0–10 V for control and daylight
- Solid aluminium housing
Storage, deliveries, car park
Behind the sales floor are storage, cold rooms and deliveries – often with long operating times. LED trunking and damp-proof luminaires with sensors suit storage areas, and luminaires that tolerate low temperatures suit cold rooms (see cold store lighting). Lighting the customer car park Pole-mounted luminairesshows how this works. At the Furniture store car park the energy demand fell by 68 %.
Safety lighting in retail premises
Larger retail premises fall under the retail building regulations of the respective federal state and generally need safety lighting for escape routes and exits. The battery-powered luminaires of the Series 19 can be retrofitted without a central battery and test themselves.
