The Challenge
Anglo-Normandy Aero Engineering’s aircraft maintenance and repair hangar was built in 1995 and with only twelve 400W metal halide fittings it suffered from insufficient light levels from the outset. Three years ago six 100W LED fittings were added, but at that time the LED technology and the cost could not meet the lighting or budget targets to fix the problem adequately. In 2012 with only 140 lux being delivered at work level where an acceptable level would be 350 lux, Anglo-Normandy resolved to address the lighting problem properly.
The Solution
After their early experience of LED lighting the company conducted a cost benefit analysis between LED and fluorescent T5s as candidate solutions and calculated that an investment in Dialight’s state-of-the-art 25,000 lumen LED high bay technology would yield an acceptable payback period of 4-4.5 years.
Dialight PLC is the world leader in LED industrial lighting technology with millions of LED fixtures installed worldwide. Dialight’s LED products are providing the next generation of lighting solutions that deliver reduced energy consumption and create a safer working environment.
