Flexibility in lighting design for roads and streets

Multilumen light distribution files for the Gavia® luminaire family provide greater flexibility and make it easier to select the right lighting solution for each application.

Every lighting project has its own requirements. Choosing the appropriate luminous flux and optics is essential for achieving the required lighting level efficiently and uniformly.

The multilumen light distribution files are now available for Easy LED’s Gavia® luminaire family.Comparing different output levels is now made easy. Designers can evaluate several alternatives during the lighting calculation and select the most suitable configuration without having to base the entire design on a single light output.

What does multilumen mean in practice?

A multilumen light distribution file contains several luminous flux options for the same luminaire. This allows different alternatives to be assessed during the planning phase and helps identify the most suitable combination of light output and optics.

For example, if an 8,000-lumen version is initially considered, lower output levels can also be tested in the calculation. This makes it easier to determine which option meets the specified lighting requirements most effectively.

There is therefore no need to use an unnecessarily high output as a safety margin. Instead, the final solution can be based on the actual calculated need.

Key benefits of multilumen photometric files

• More accurate calculations
  Several output levels can be compared at an early stage, allowing the luminaire to be matched more precisely to the requirements of the site.
• The right light output for each application
  Designers can, for example, choose between 4,000, 6,000 and 8,000 lm according to the required lighting level and installation conditions.
• Optimised energy consumption
  Matching the light output to the actual need helps avoid unnecessary over-dimensioning and can reduce the energy consumption of the lighting system.
• More uniform and targeted illumination
  Combining the appropriate output with the right optics directs light where it is needed. This supports uniform illumination while minimising unwanted light spill into the surrounding environment.
• A smoother planning process
  With distribution data for several output levels readily available, alternatives can be evaluated and calculations carried out more efficiently.

Gavia – one luminaire family, many possibilities

The extensive selection of optics and power options within the Gavia® luminaire family makes it suitable for a wide range of road and outdoor lighting applications. Gavia can be used, for example, on motorways, streets, pedestrian and cycle paths, in parks and squares, as well as along recreational routes.

Multilumen data adds another level of flexibility. The designer can select the appropriate output and optics for the installation and perform the calculation using data that corresponds to the chosen luminaire configuration.

The right luminaire, the right light output and the right optics – for every application.

The latest design data is readily available

We will continue to provide and update multilumen light distribution files for Easy LED’s Gavia® luminaire family. The latest product information and design data are always available on the Gavia product page.

We continuously develop the Gavia family to meet evolving requirements for lighting performance, energy efficiency and environmental considerations.
