Abacus Light Control System -Our solution to low lightpollution
Specific to the Challenger®1 range of sports lighting, the Abacus Light Control System consists of a series ofcomplementary measures to effectively control the keyelements of obtrusive light; namelyupward light, glare and overspill.
ULORUpward Light OutputRatio
The % of upward light produced is given at the stated elevation (maximum working elevation of the floodlight).
Efficient Optical Systems
Precision reflector systems ensure tight beam control,which reduce overspill and direct light only where it isneeded, on the playing surface!
Anti Glare Baffle
An internal anti glare baffle re-directs upward stray light backinto the main beam to boostperformance. At angles above themain beam the internal baffle alsoeliminates direct lamp glare.
Overspill
The flow of light spillingoutside the locationboundary. With inadequate controlintrusive light may besufficiently great as toprovide a serious nuisanceand disturbance toadjacent areas
Glare
