Twin Spot
Aqualux luminaires have been specifically
designed to deliver exceptional light output
and excellent spacings, even in areas with
high ceilings, making Aqualux the sure
choice for large scale open area emergency
lighting projects.
Through developing luminaires with increased spacing,
Emergi-Lite is able to deliver key cost benefits over the
lifetime of the emergency lighting system.
Fewer luminaires reduces installation, ongoing
maintenance and servicing costs, along with the
eventual recycling requirement.
With emergency lighting a long term investment,
this highly effective approach can have a significant
positive impact on total cost of ownership of
the system.
The following chart highlights the savings which can
be achieved through specifying and installing Aqualux
versus a twin spot tungsten halogen unit.
