Outdoor ceiling light occupies an important position in the design of the building, and is also an important factor in improving the functionality and safety of outdoor space. Reasonable lamp installation positions can not only optimize the lighting effect, but also extend the service life of the equipment and improve the overall safety.
Determine lighting requirements
In the process of selecting lamp installation positions, it is important to clarify the demand for lighting. This demand can be subdivided into the following categories:
Functional lighting: This type of lamps are mainly used for lighting in specific areas, such as entrances, aisles and parking lots to ensure the safe traffic of pedestrians and vehicles.
Atmospheric lighting: Such lamps are used to create a specific environmental atmosphere, especially in outdoor leisure areas or courtyards to provide warm and comfortable light.
Focus Lighting: Highlight the specific characteristics or landscape elements of the building through lamps, such as sculpture, garden or building facade to enhance visual attractiveness.
After clarifying the lighting needs, it can more effectively choose the installation location of the lamp to ensure that it meets the actual use requirements.
Consider the characteristics of lamp type and light source
There are significant differences in different types of lamps and their light sources in the lighting effect and coverage. When selecting the installation location, the following factors need to be considered:
Beam angle: The beam angle of the lamp determines the distribution range of light. Wide -angle lamps are suitable for large -scale lighting, while the spotlight is used for centralized lighting, suitable for highlighting specific areas.
Brightness of light source: The brightness of the lamp (in the lumen) directly affects the lighting effect. In areas with insufficient light, it is necessary to choose high brightness lamps, and when creating an atmosphere, low brightness lamps are more suitable.
Color temperature: The color temperature of the lamp (in Kaelin) will affect the visual effect of the environment. Warm color (2700K-3000K) is suitable for creating a comfortable atmosphere, and the cold color (4000K-5000K) is more suitable for functional lighting.
Select the appropriate installation position according to the characteristics of the lamp, which can ensure the best lighting effect.
Installation height and angle
The installation height and angle of the lamp have a direct impact on the coverage of light and the lighting effect. Here are some suggestions:
Installation height: Generally, the installation height of outdoor ceiling lights should be maintained between 2.5 meters and 3 meters. Too low installation height may lead to direct light in the eyes of pedestrians, causing glare; too high installation heights may cause insufficient light and affect the lighting effect.
Lighting angle: The lamps should be towards the area where light needs to avoid discomfort in the eyes of direct photography. At the same time, the angle of the lamp should also consider the impact of the surrounding obstacles to ensure that the light can effectively cover the target area.
Avoid cover and interference
When choosing a installation location, it is important to avoid the lamps from being covered by the surrounding buildings, trees or other obstacles. Observation can cause light to effectively illuminate to the target area, which affects the lighting effect. Here are some specific suggestions:
Available obstacles: Make sure that the lamps and walls, trees and other obstacles keep a proper distance to avoid the light of the light and the maximum of the lighting effect.
Avoid light interference: When installing lamps, you need to consider the impact of the surrounding light sources, such as street lights, billboards, etc., to avoid mutual interference and cause uneven light.
