School Campus, Dudley

School sees benefits of new luminaires in their workshops

A new school campus in Dudley opened its doors in September 2018, and in looking to perfectly illuminate the various spaces, including the classrooms, workshops, reception rooms and the kitchen environment, the electrical contractors chose a selection of Ansell fittings which best suited the requirements of the school.

Firstly, the Tornado IP65 non-corrosive LED sealed fitting range had been selected and then fitted within the school’s workshops, having suitability for industrial type applications and ancillary areas, with an LED performance which allows point-for-point replacement of the older fluorescent based fittings. Having a unique luminaire fixing clip design allowing the option for BESA box installation and with lockable heavy-duty stainless-steel clips suppled as standard, giving added safety and security, very important in this type of educational building. With a highly efficient performance at a colour temperature of 4000K, and L70 at 50,000 hours in addition to the option of smart, dimming and sensor options, as well as a maintained emergency version, means extreme flexibility in potential locations for installation.

Secondly, the Proline surface linear fittings from Ansell Lighting were selected, being ideally suited for both educational and commercial applications. Having a modern contemporary fully enclosed look, this fitting has a powder coated steel body with a reeded opal polycarbonate diffuser and retained end caps. Benefiting from achieving low glare and a uniform light distribution pattern, alongside a high performance of 100 Lumens/Watt across the range at a colour temperature of 4000K and a life to L70 of 56,000 hours, as well as the option of smart, dimming and sensor options, and a maintained emergency version, thereby offering suitability for numerous installations.

Other luminaires from the extensive Ansell Lighting portfolio of products, were selected for use on this project including the installation of the Endurance High Performance 600×600 recessed fittings within the numerous classroom areas and the Freska LED Recessed Downlight, installed in multiple locations across the site, such as within the reception area, and in various corridors.
