Photometric Lighting Layouts

Your Vision, Illuminated

What We Offer

At Zlight Technology, we go beyond the ordinary to transform your space with state-of-the-art Photometric Lighting Layouts. We meticulously craft each layout with attention to detail, scientific precision, and an eye for aesthetics.

Whether you’re designing a new building or refurbishing an existing space, our layouts are tailor-made to cater to your specific needs and requirements.

What do Photometric Lighting Layouts do?

Lighting Simulation: Photometric Lighting Layouts offer a visual representation of the amount and distribution of light within a space. It predicts potential dark spots or overly lit areas that could create uncomfortable glare.
Assess Efficiency: The report allows designers to assess the efficiency of a lighting layout, potentially saving energy and money.
Compliance Check: A photometric layout can help ensure that a proposed lighting system will comply with jurisdictional rules.
Improve Design: A photometric layout can help designers improve the overall aesthetic and function of a design.
Enhance Safety: Photometric layouts can ensure spaces are well-lit to prevent accidents and improve security.
Reduce Costs: Efficient lighting design can also reduce costs related to maintenance and fixture replacement.

Our Process

Analysis and Objective Definition:

Survey the space to be lit, capturing dimensions and determining its function.
Define the desired light levels based on function and specific aesthetic or design considerations.

Fixture Selection and Data Collection:

Choose appropriate lighting fixtures and obtain their photometric data.
Import the layout of the space into the software and place the chosen fixtures.

Simulation and Evaluation:

Run software simulations to visualize the distribution of light, ensuring uniformity and identifying potential dark or overly lit areas.
Evaluate the results, considering Light Loss Factors (LLF), and adjust fixture types or placements as necessary.

Documentation and Compliance:

Prepare a comprehensive lighting plan, including fixture specifications and expected light levels.
Ensure the proposed plan adheres to local building and energy codes, obtaining necessary reviews and approvals.

Implementation:

Use the approved plan to guide the installation of the lighting system, maintaining a balance between technical requirements, aesthetics, efficiency, and budget.

Understanding a Photometric Lighting Layout

Lighting Fixtures: Marked on the drawing with specific symbols.
Photometric Grid: A grid overlaying the site plan, indicating foot-candles or lux levels.
Illuminance Contours: Lines that connect points of equal light level.
Isofootcandle Diagram: Depicts light intensity using lines spreading out from a fixture point.
Pole Locations and Heights: For outdoor layouts, indicating pole installations.
Calculations and Totals: Overview of the number of each type of light fixture and total light output.
Light Loss Factors (LLF): Accounts for reduction in light output over time.
