Sammode Industry General lighting Functional, durable, efficient and dependable, Sammode luminaires are made to last. Optimised down to the smallest detail, they offer users an exceptionally long and robust working life at minimal operating cost.

Sammode : Industry — General lighting Durability and dependability For four generations, we have developed a unique level of experience in bringing light into the most critical locations and most severe environments under the most demanding conditions. Established in 1927, Sammode is now synonymous with high-durability, high-dependability technical lighting. Our expertise covers every link in the lighting chain, from design to manufacture, which means that we can guarantee to provide the best quality of lighting in all environments between -60 °C and +200 °C. Experience and local presence...

Sustainable lighting Sammode : Industry — General lighting Sammode : Industry — General lighting Sustainable lighting Our environmental policy has always been clear and simple : we reject the idea of throwaway products and planned obsolescence, we select recyclable materials, prefer maintenance and component-by-component renovation, and reduce waste to the minimum. We understand that by designing efficient, dependable products, we limit production and reduce the need for maintenance. For every project we undertake, we help our customers to limit their energy consumption and use of natural...

The different types of lighting The different types of lighting Sammode : Industry — General lighting Sammode : Industry — General lighting Each type of installation requires the use of luminaires with specific individual characteristics. Installations for particularly high spaces, clean rooms, inspection pits, low glare environments, task lighting and general lighting… Whatever the application, our luminaires offer exceptional longevity and meet the full spectrum of regulatory and functional requirements. General lighting For industrial process environments • with a floor area in excess of...

Sammode : Industry — General lighting 50 years of experience in the design and use of tubular luminaires for industry have led us to select only the most appropriate materials for use in polluted and corrosive environments ; materials that can also resist the weather and the processes of ageing. The choice of these materials guarantees the exceptionally long working life of our products under extreme conditions of use. External metal components Coextruded polycarbonate/PMMA diffuser Since PMMA resists chemical attack and polycarbonate offers excellent mechanical strength, our composite...

The strength of a tubular system The limitations of traditional sealed luminaires Originally designed for storage area or project site lighting, the traditional products offered by other manufacturers reveal their limitations in the demanding environments created by industrial processes. They comprise two sections produced using different materials : a ceiling-mounted casing containing the gear tray, and a transparent diffuser. This configuration makes them sensitive to heat fluctuations and mechanical impacts, which can cause relative distortion, resulting in compromised seal performance...

Sammode : Industry — General lighting Operational life The working life of a traditional lighting system extends to the failure of a certain percentage of its sources. There is no reason why a well-designed LED system should cease to function, even if it leads eventually to the loss of luminous flux. Rather than give a strict lifespan for an LED system, it is more useful to describe its behaviour over time. This is expressed as follows : Operational life (in thousands of hours, or Kh) Lx By, where x = remaining luminous flux as a percentage of initial flux y = percentage of LEDs unlikely to...

Optical management Sammode : Industry — General lighting Compared with standard fluorescent lamps, LEDs require a different approach to optical management, given their small size and high luminance (around 1 million cd/m²). Diffuse extensive optics This light distribution pattern is suitable for the majority of general process lighting applications. As a result, careful optical design, light diffusion, avoiding direct eye exposure and reducing the glare of these bright on-demand sources becomes essential. Our diffuse optical systems disperse the light emitted by the source in such a way...

Sammode : Industry — General lighting Comparison and limitations Relevant for comparing luminaires that use different technologies, total efficiency is, however, useful only for luminaires that are very similar in terms of their function and light distribution. The best practical approach is to conduct a lighting study that takes account of the photometric aspects of the products and the characteristics of the rooms in which they are used (dimensions, volumes, light reflection ratios, etc.) to produce a given level of lighting, and compare the total amount of power consumed. LED modules...

18 Photobiological safety Sammode: Industry - General lighting The EN 62471 standard For each type of light source used, this standard defines the specifications to be complied with in order to avoid health risks that apply predominantly to the eyes and skin. Nevertheless, they contain a high intensity of blue light that poses a potential Blue Light Hazard, which can cause irreversible damage to the retina if viewed directly for prolonged periods. The likelihood of this risk becoming a reality depends on multiple factors, including the power of the LED, its colour temperature, its light...
