Crane lighting

New LED crane lighting illuminates the workplace in a new dimension. Optimized crane lighting brings more safety, reduces light pollution, is easy to install (240V) and is more economic to operate.

Lighting zones construction crane

We subdivide the following zones:

 

  • Zone 1: Loading zone
    In this zone it is important to have enough light to handle loading quickly and safely.
     

  • Zone 2: delivery zone boom
    The crane's delivery zone is also an important source of lighting for the construction site.

Lighting Planning

Good light is not expensive!

A modern one  and energy-efficient LED lighting significantly reduces operating costs and can be amortized quickly. We'll help you!

Illuminance lux

The optimal brightness guarantee comfort for humans and animals!

According to the EN 12193 "Sports facility lighting" standard, we distinguish between the following classes:

  • Class 1
    High-performance competitions & high-performance training / Spectators: Great viewing distance

  • Class 2
    ium-level competitions, performance training / Spectators: Medium viewing distance

  • Class 3
    Simple competitions (usually without spectators), general training, general school and leisure sports

Requirements for crane floodlights


Luminaires and floodlights on construction cranes are heavily exposed to the weather and pollution. For this reason, they must be of good quality and made of sturdy and durable materials.
 

  • Protection class IP65 - and larger
    Guarantees protection against the ingress of dirt and water. (see IP protection classes )
    PS: Good IP protection also enables easier cleaning.
     

  • Robust construction
    A shock resistance level of IK10 is recommended for very exposed floodlights.
     

  • Stable when standing and assembling
    We recommend a well screwed fastening with fall protection for the light sources.
     

  • Color rendering CRI / Ra> 70
    CRI / Ra 60 and smaller tire the eyes, warning signs and signal colors no longer come into their own.
     

  • Light control
    Beam direction and beam angle are decisive for optimal illumination and reduction of glare. Modern LED spotlights have different optical solutions - let us advise you.
     

  • Safe and versatile cabling
    A water and dirt-proof connection must be guaranteed. Also, the pulling of longer power cables must not be neglected (strain relief!).
    Due to the installation at a great height, a well-prepared connection is of great help. In addition to the simple installation, an additional output for connecting another spotlight is advantageous.
     

  • Shadow formation
    Multi-sided illumination reduces shading and glare.
    A light source mounted at a low height has a dazzling effect. In this case, an asymmetrical light source is recommended.
     

  • Sustainability and accessories
    High requirements can lead to product wear and tear. For this reason, it is important that quality products can also be repaired. NORDRIDE guarantees to have spare parts in its range over a long period of time.
