DESCRIPTION

The Precision Parabolic 3" high performance
louver incorporates a precision designed
optical assembly that offers the specifier a
controlled, high performance light source with
application versatility.

The Symmetric High throw wall wash
luminaire produces uniform vertical wall
illumination on both sides of luminaire from
the ceiling line to the floor. The double wall
wash distribution eliminates the “Cave Effect”.
The symmetric high throw is the ideal
luminaire for wall washing applications.

Symmetric Wall Wash (SYM) Asymmetric Wall Wash (ASY)

The Asymmetric High throw luminaire

produces uniform vertical wall illumination on
one side of the luminaire from the ceiling line
to the floor. The wall wash distribution
eliminates the “Cave Effect”. The asymmetric
high throw is the ideal luminaire for wall
washing applications.

The Library/Vertical Stack luminaire produces
uniform illumination levels on the entire face
of the stack, top to bottom. The vertical
illumination optical assembly precisely directs
light between library stacks. The library stack
is the ideal luminaire for libraries and other
narrow aisle stack applications.

The Library Stack, Over and Under, two lamp
configuration produces uniform illumination
