Different light distributions let you adjust the light to suit the task at hand. The options range from very narrow accentuation through to wide beam floodlighting and even wallwashing.
Striking lighting effects produced by narrow or wide beams create an eyecatching feature and divide up the façade. The ERCO system design includes a wide variety of lighting solutions with upward or downward beam emission.
Accentuating historical facades with grazing light or subdividing large facade areas is one of the strengths of Cylinder facade luminaires. The lighting technology offers suitable possibilities for this: narrow or wide light distributions upwards and downwards, or downwards only. The upper light beam is slightly directed towards the facade to avoid spill light – in accordance with Dark Sky requirements. For the downward distribution the facade luminaires include variants with a semi-circular light beam on the ground and a light beam that ends just in front of the facade. All have the characteristic grazing light for strikingly emphasising textures on the facade.

Light distribution
Wide-beam illumination of pathways and open areas.
Asymmetrical washlighting with a wide beam for the illumination of pathways.
Cylinder floor washlights with oval flood and spot light distribution, directed downward, provide subtle light for a glare-free and – with oval flood beam – uniform illumination of pathways near façades. The recommended mounting height (h) for floor washlights is 2m above the ground.
Arrangement: h = 2m
For uniform washlighting of the ground with oval flood distribution, the luminaire spacing (d) should equal the mounting height (h). The luminaire spacing for visual guidance, for example with the spot light distribution, depends on the design criteria.
Arrangement: d = h
