The quantity is calculated from the illuminance target of the space type (EN 12464-1) and the product's power and lumen data. This is a preliminary design; we prepare a DIALux design for the final layout.
How is it calculated?
- Choosing the type of space fills in the EN 12464-1 illuminance target and maintenance factor.
- The lumen method is applied with the product's power and lumen data, the room size and ceiling height; the quantity is laid out evenly in columns × rows.
- With automatic power, the variant that keeps the spacing best suited to the mounting height is chosen. You can change the power and the layout yourself.
- The result is a preliminary design; we prepare a DIALux design for the final layout and light distribution.
