Amerlux has announced a lighting solution that caters to the needs of people inside buildings.
Its AERUS lighting solution maximizes technological advances in electronics and optics to create work environments that promote productivity and employee health.
Consider a snapshot of casualties in today’s workplace:
- The Mayo Clinic lists glare and bright light as the leading causes of eyestrain, which decreases productivity and increases health insurance premiums.
- Americans spend $87.6 billion annually treating neck and back pain, according to the Journal of the American Medical Association.
- Improved lighting design can yield 23 percent gains in productivity, according to the U.S. Green Building Council.
AERUS promotes comfort and aesthetics in a number of ways:
- Anidolic Optics: Since the actual light source isn’t easy to see, AERUS delivers an indirect/direct (75 percent/25 percent) lighting distribution.
- No Visual Power Feed: AERUS uses low-voltage aircraft cable that supports and supplies power to the fixture.
- Closer Ceiling Mounts: AERUS mounts 12 inches below the ceiling, compared to standard mounting for indirect/direct pendants of 18 inches to 24 inches, without creating a hot spot. It delivers 35 foot-candles at 30 inches above finished floor.
- Wider Spacing: While delivering illumination above and between fixtures, AERUS can be mounted up to 12 feet on center. AERUS delivers the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IES)-recommended foot-candle on desk.
As the cure for poor office lighting, AERUS also delivers indirect lighting for commercial and institutional settings.
