Louvres for efficient visual comfort

A louvre is designed to restrict the view into the luminaire, achieving efficient visual comfort with an emission angle of 90°. An anti-glare louvre available in black or silver enables the luminaire to blend with the material and color of the ceiling.

Suitable for office workstations

ERCO develops luminaires with the specifications of good glare control and high visual comfort. UGR values are used as support for purely norm-referenced lighting. With downlights though this should not be carried out using 'blanket' values, but should be implemented according to the individual arrangement of luminaires in the room.

Covered or flush mounting detail

Compar recessed downlights are supplied with an overlapping mounting detail. Flush mounting details are available as accessories to facilitate site logistics.

Shallow recess depth

In compact installation situations, every millimeter is decisive with the recess depth of a luminaire. ERCO has thus developed special luminaires for shallow recess depths that guarantee very good quality of light even in very tight installation conditions.

The recessed downlights with a concise and linear housing shape, available from widths of 2” (52mm), set accents in the ceiling design and simultaneously function as highly efficient lighting tools with high levels of visual comfort. The wide spectrum of distribution options for nuanced general and office lighting convinces in any high-quality architecture. Compar is an attractive alternative to lighting with conventional linear luminaires. With Compar, ceiling-integrated lighting concepts can be realized in restaurants as well as administrative, cultural and office buildings.

For optimum general lighting, the luminaire spacing (d) between two Compar downlights may, as a rough guide, be up to 1.5 times the height (h) of the luminaire above the working plane.

Arrangement: d ≤ 1.5 x h

The wall offset should be half the luminaire spacing.

Arrangement: a = d / 2

As a rough guide for uniform illumination, the luminaire spacing (d) between two Compar downlights installed in a row may be up to 1.5 times the height (h) of the luminaire above the working plane.

Arrangement: d ≤ 1.5 x h

Application area: Hallways and corridors as well as above tables.

For uniform vertical illuminance, the distance (a) of Compar lens wallwashers from the wall should be around one third of the wall height (h).

Arrangement: a = 1/3 x h

For good longitudinal uniformity, the spacing (d) of Compar lens wallwashers may be up to 1.3 times the offset from the wall (a).

Arrangement: d ≤ 1.3 x a
