Luminaire enables lighting schemes for display screen areas 
(22/10/2006)
Thorn's new MenloSoft SR luminaire now enables lighting schemes for display screen areas to be designed with complete compliance to Lighting Guide LG3: 2001 and LG7: 2005 ceiling and wall illuminance ratio recommendations, using just one fitting type.
MenloSoft SR is a semi-recessed modular fluorescent with a suspended optic (only 82mm below the ceiling), designed to deliver an efficient light output (63%) with excellent glare control (1500cd/m²). Light is directed onto the walls and ceiling, thus lifting the office appearance.
The slim 'butterfly'shaped optic is offered with either a specular or semi-specular central aluminium louvre, flanked by micro-perforated wings. As such it is ideally suited for the lighting of most office spaces.
Energy efficiency is good too. The luminaire is supplied with 14 or 24W T5 lamps operated from either fixed output or digital dimming high frequency control gear. Standard 3 hour or SelfTest emergency options are also available.
