The SFP83 from Major Tech is an energy-efficient, 8 W solar-powered 88 x 2835 SMD LED floodlight with a built-in passive infrared (PIR) sensor. The sensor continuously scans the operational zone for a moving heat source. When movement is detected, it automatically switches on the light. The sensor can be adjusted to scan an area […]
DuPont Electronics and Imaging has completed the sale of its soluble organic light emitting diode (OLED) technology and associated assets to LG Chem. Assets included in the sale are intellectual property related to DuPont’s soluble OLED technology and certain equipment for the production of soluble OLED materials and devices. The sale did not include assets […]
Eurolux’s ELAB is now equipped with both a goniometer and integrated sphere testing system. The GO-2000 goniophotometer (also known as a “horizontal” goniophotometer) is a supermatic test system for luminous intensity distribution and total luminous flux measurement in luminaries and lamps including indoor and street lights, as well as floodlights. The ELAB laboratory is a […]
Connectivity and sensors company TE Connectivity has introduced a new compact connectivity solution for street lighting with LED light sources. Its Lumawise Endurance S module consists of a standardised interface (Zhaga Book 18) between the receptacle and module base or sealing cap. It uses an integrated single gasket that can accommodate and seal both luminaire […]
Primary Colours has installed a very large, curved LED screen in Johannesburg’s Fourways Mall above the new food court. The screen is some 19,8 m in length and about 1,5 m tall. That’s one-and-a-half times the length of a Gautrain bus. The entire installation, including the custom-made frame, weighs around 1 tonne. The smooth curve […]
The Casambi Ready basicDIM Wireless control technology from Tridonic is implemented in showrooms, boards rooms and offices and the wireless ecosystem was recently extended: the passive module now negates the need for an additional mains line. The constant voltage (CV) basicDIM Wireless module PMW is ideal for adding a dimming function to existing accent lighting […]
The Tygerberg Hospital in Cape Town is the largest hospital in the Western Cape and the second largest in South Africa. Highmasts are installed around the campus to provide general area lighting. These were previously fitted with 400 W HPS floodlights, which emitted yellow light due to poor colour rendering. The Department of Health decided […]
Many objects, such as aluminium bags, blister packages or curved metal surfaces with printed, dot-peened or punched codes have difficult reflecting properties. Dome illumination provides a remedy. The integrated LEDs radiate into the dome from below. Due to the diffuse reflection under the dome, the result is an evenly lit surface, comparable to the light […]
Fluke has developed a tool that takes the trial and error out of maintaining fluorescent lighting. The result is the Fluke 1000FLT fluorescent light tester, designed for building maintenance professionals. It is an all-in-one fluorescent lamp, ballast, non-contact voltage and pin continuity tester, as well as ballast-type discriminator. Some fluorescent lighting testers on the market […]
