Airport Uses
Terminals get wayfinding arrows and brand marks on floors and facades, and entrances a clear identity. Duty-rated, sealed units handle the relentless schedule.
Because airports never close, continuous-duty LED is essential.
Airport Checklist
- 24/7 duty-rated LED.
- IP65 for exposed areas.
- High output for bright terminals.
- Tamper-resistant public mount.
- Clear wayfinding gobos.
Airport Comparison
| Surface | Unit | Power | Throw |
|---|---|---|---|
| Terminal floor | IP65 50 to 100 W | 50 to 100 W | 3 to 8 m |
| Facade | IP65 150 W | 150 W | 10 to 20 m |
| Entrance | IP65 50 W | 50 W | 3 to 8 m |
| Concourse | 100 W logo | 100 W | 8 to 15 m |
Always-On Reliability
Confirm continuous-duty rating and sealed enclosures. A failed mark in a terminal is a wayfinding gap, so redundancy on key routes helps.
Brightness for Terminals
Terminals are bright and tall; 100 to 150 W holds facade and concourse marks. Floors need 50 to 100 W.
Mistakes
- Non-duty-rated unit failing overnight.
- Weak mark lost in terminal light.
- Non-weatherproof exposed fixture.
- Non-secure public mount.
