In today’s modern world, efficient lighting solutions are crucial for creating safe and comfortable environments. Hallways and passageways are essential areas that require proper illumination to ensure clear visibility and guide people through various spaces.
One innovative lighting solution designed specifically for this purpose is the Corridor Function luminaire. In this article, we will explore the benefits and features of Corridor Function luminaires and how they provide efficient illumination for hallways and passageways.
What is Corridor Function?
Corridor Function (sometimes referred to as Step Dimming) is a lighting control method and involves the ability to adjust the light output of LED fittings in increments or steps, rather than continuously. Typically, LED lighting with Corridor Function capabilities allow users to select from predetermined brightness levels, often set at specific percentages of the fitting’s full output.
For instance, a Corridor Function LED system might offer brightness settings at 100%, 75%, 50% and 25%, providing distinct levels of illumination suitable for different tasks or environments. This simplified and straightforward approach to dimming not only makes it user-friendly but also enables energy savings and prolongs the lifespan of the LED chips, making it a popular choice for various residential, commercial, and industrial lighting applications.
Enhanced Lighting Control with the Duxford Tri-Colour Bulkhead
The Duxford Bulkhead from NET LED Lighting is an excellent choice for efficient lighting in hallways and passageways. This versatile luminaire offers a range of features that make it ideal for such applications.
One key feature of the Duxford Bulkhead is its Corridor Function. This function ensures that the luminaire operates at a reduced light output when no motion is detected in the area, thus saving energy, and extending the lifespan of the luminaire. When motion is detected, the luminaire instantly returns to full brightness, providing adequate illumination for anyone in the vicinity.
Additionally, the Duxford Tri-Colour Bulkhead is equipped with an IP65 rating, making it dustproof and protected against water jets. This level of protection ensures the luminaire’s durability, making it suitable for installation in both indoor and outdoor settings, including hallways and passageways exposed to the elements.
