Advise On Light Fitting

[moose man]

 hi all not been on for a while

 at work  they have started work doing automotive work  company who we doing the work for are asking for 1000 lux level 

 above inspection areas and assembly area 

 original fittings were 8ft twin fittings @ 6mtr  so what am thinking off is dropping to 3mtr with a 6ft hf twin fitting with polished aluminium

 polished reflector with 865 day light tubes  

 or could anybody advise on any other type  of light units or had experience in this type of environment

thanks moose

Moose,

Why is your client specifying your work conditions?

After that, then there are a lot of things that can be done.

They should not really be poking their nose into your factory.

Trouble is I guess you need the work, else you would not have gone down this road.

Also, the work that is being done must have suitable lighting to be sufficient under statute law, so it could be that which they are quoting.

Modern high efficiency 5' HF twins with suitable reflectors will give you the same lighting as 8' twins, so dropping the height is a bonus.

Don't do the lighting design yourself, get your supplier to get in a manufacturers lighting engineer to do the design for you, go for 3, then pick the one you like and get 3 supply quotes on the fittings.

Else get a consultant in to sort the design etc. out for you, then go out to quote on that.

Is this for "panel" inspection?

I'm guessing it is for BIW stuff?

Anyway, trust me mate, get it done by the suppliers, it is easier, I do it all the time, I am doing one now for a complete factory unit, it is easier, they do the calcs & stuff, I go out to earn money, simples!
