this was complemented by the very best LED technology. He pointed out that the present Australian Standard for LEDS is minimalist so he used the guidelines set up by Lend Lease which have evolved from evidence based on past projects and those used in other countries.

Abundance of creative lighting Caneland Central Caneland Central is a state of the art $230 million shopping center, which opened in Mackay, Queensland late last year. Lend Lease, the world wide construction company, developed the center and the very important lighting design was conceptulised by their Senior Design Engineer (lighting) guru, Mike Sparrow. At the outset, Mike immediately contacted Peter Spirko at 3S Lighting whom he had partnered with on many projects, and invited 3S Lighting to join him on the creative journey to ensure inspired lighting history for the Caneland’s project. Mike’s focus was to use custom-built fittings on which he could rely not only for design integrity but also for quality outcomes. Previous experience with 3S Lighting provided Mike with the confidence for this partnership and so it became the heartbeat of their lighting design journey. Canelands was set up as a significant lighting project, which would

eventually and abundantly fill, and exceed, all expectations. Peter Spirko was also delighted that 3S Lighting would partner with Mike Sparrow. Having successfully collaborated in the past, he also knew that 3S Lighting could deliver the quality outcome required, because of their design team and facility, which uses the latest state of the art - CAD systems coupled to computer, controlled prototyping and production machinery. He could offer Mike R&D test facilities as well as being able to offer fast turn around production time because of their capability to quickly source and adapt

The Wow Factor: Mike relates the intensive planning and co-operation with Peter Spirko and 3S led by Mike, delivered the successful outcome. Mike reinforced his design

fittings for the whole project. He was completely delighted with the outcome. The Food Court within Canelands, according to Mike, “is a stand-out”. Mike’s design concept for the Food Court involved 3S Lighting, designing and creating of 44 special LED pendant luminaires. When they were strategically positioned it provided the Wow factor for the entire Food Court. A great ambience for the diners has been created and, as Mike of the art lighting design. It amply illustrates that great lighting design is the vital force

says, “lighting has a critical influence on the way we feel and the way we perceive things.” Clearly it takes a specialized person with vision, flare and technical know-how to fully understand a client’s needs and then translate that need into a great design.

that produces a spectacular lighting outcome. And it is great lighting design which enables people to experience the dynamic, positive emotion of mood elevation: And in having heightened mood levels in a retail complex at this point in time i.e. a tough retailing environment, the great lighting design gives a priceless “value add” component for the shopping experience at Canelands.

components. And as the integral core of their mission – 3S Lighting thrive on offering lighting solutions. Beginning the Creative Journey: Having created the concept, Mike prepared the sketches and drawings and then met with Peter Spirko to discuss the types of materials, diameters and access to cables within the complex. The partnership team at this stage were intensively involved in all the fine details, required for the quality outcome. With their continuing close collaboration they marched on the lighting design journey together, interacting with the architects, to deliver what was to become an outstanding showcase of spectacular lighting design. As the project developed there were several prototypes manufactured and designed for the final product. Peter Spirko housed the plans within 3S and as a team they added embellishments to some elements so that the physical site could perfectly accommodate the design of the fittings i.e. relate to the actual site structure. But this is the usual activity in working and collaborating on a big design project like Canelands. Energy Efficiency: Mike Sparrow was delighted with the energy efficiency factor. The louvers underneath the skylights in the ceilings optimized the daylighting factor and

This entire collaborative journey provides the main client; in this instance Lend Lease, with a shopping centre that proudly demonstrates state Lighting to develop the majority of the light

EXECUTIVE INSIGHT

“Lighting is not about energy saving, you don’t save energy by producing poor quality lighting.”

Steve Furzey

Technical Manager Sylvania Lighting

Volume and low margins are a recipe for disaster, it means

While Sylvania Lighting has adopted the trend of creating a modern ‘fleet’ of quality lighting fixtures with LEDs as their source, Steve Furzey said it is paramount that suppliers, consumers and designers don’t fall into the trap of using LEDs to achieve energy efficiency at the expense of functionality and standards. In conversation with Lighting Magazine, he explains why he went on a crusade against false advertising and misleading claims in the LED market and why he has now reached a more philosophical place.

you have a lot of people employed and it’s risky. We decided to set up our own manufacturing facility for LED products. We found all the modelling software was expensive and was all designed around heat sinks for power supplies. We started to do work in testing and developing our own software which took us about two years of hard slog and R&D commitment. It means now we have control over the quality of products and the LEDs we want to use, it means that we don’t have a third party supplier of integral LED and fixture.

AWARDS

IES Victorian Lighting Design Awards 2011 Electrolight received an Award of Commendation for Lonsdale Street Dandenong and encourage pedestrians to take ownership of the precinct. Pedestrians were regarded as most important, followed by bicycles, public transport and lastly private vehicles in the encouragement of a democratic and dynamic space. The outline and shape of the human form was vital in creating a lighting scheme that is alive with warmth and vibrancy. An intimate scale of luminaire in pedestrian areas distinguishes these from the road lighting and helps to preserve the human scale within a physically large scope. Electrolight designed the custom lighting to the central median with visual artist David Sequeira with the aim of creating an iconic feature that metaphorically bridges the range of cultures in one of Melbourne’s most culturally diverse regions. The work spans the length of the project, ensuring a visual unification of the activities of the street. The scheme meets the recommendations of AS/ NZS 1158 for Category P6 and V3 and allows for substantial and measurable reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and near zero waste upward emission of light.

D

esigner’s Statement: Located a short taxi or tram ride from the CBD, Botanical is a Melbourne institution on

the south-eastern side of the famous Royal Botanic Gardens. Botanical’s Dining Room continues to maintain its 150+ year reputation of contemporary fine dining with Executive Chef Cheong Liew’s highly individual ‘cuisine sans frontières’, a border-less approach to cooking that truly reflects cosmopolitan Melbourne. Botanical has the choice of three key spaces for private events, including the Archer Room, Chef’s Table and Main Bar all of which offer a premium setting for any occasion. Each of the private spaces can cater for events of all kinds. The Archer Room can accommodate up to 70 guests. Our Chef’s Table within the dining room can accommodate up to 18 guests and the Main Bar can be used for functions up to 250 guests.

EVO50 LED Downlight

LED Mounting Profiles

Why Compromise? ONE FITS ALL Our revolutionary EVO50 Module is an Australian breakthrough which can retro fit into most existing halogen trims

ARCHI-Wide 15 is a European designed LED profile specifically manufactured for the “LED Lighting” industry, made from high quality anodized aluminium which has a unique slim line design.

Archi-Wide 8 which allows the light emitting from each Led to overlap the adjacent LED offering a continuous linear look, very nice option providing you have the depth available.

It is wider with greater heat dissipation characteristics mainly used for higher light output application than can house a wide array of more brighter or intense LED strips.

This mounting profile is manufactured in 2metre lengths ONLY, clear or frosted covers are available which simply snap into place with human force and requires a tool to remove.

Our Archi-Wide 8 WITH frosted cover is the perfect choice if you require a totally linear continuous line of light look. It has no imperfections when looking directly into the light source. It’s deeper than the

Our EVO50 LED downlight is true revolution in its own Wright – It’s a high quality LED downlight fixture which is adaptable with our new Australian Architectural Designed trims and can also be retrofitted into existing halogen downlight trims, making this the first LED downlight of its kind in Australia.

Our ARCHI-Wide 15 mounting profile is an excellent choice for most surface mounted interiors or joinery type applications where space is limited.

Our Evo50 is a true 1:1 MR16 50W halogen replacement comprising of 7 high powered CREE XPE LED’s, with quality versatile 30 and 60 degree optic lens options, in both 3000K and 4000K color temperatures.

The profile can be used with high power LED’s up to 1W each. Led profiles are IP20 can be use outside with IP67 LED ribbons only

For our full range of mounting profiles please visit our website.

Our Evo50 is supplied with a mains dimmable driver, which can dim through both trailing/leading edge Clipsal dimmers as well as C-BUS and Dynalite whom have conducted special in-house testing using our quality Evo50 fixture. We launched our Evo50 led downlight onto the market in January 2O11 and have literally sold thousands since, they have been extremely well received across all market sectors which has been a huge milestone for us, we are proud to see our vision become a reality as this single product was a huge initial investment right from the initial R&D phase through to prototype and mass manufacture and keeping large stock volumes has been exiting but yet very challenging.

Thermal management All light sources have thermal management issues. Older readers will remember the problems created by the use of MR16 tungsten halogen lamps in miniature downlights (fires, melted wiring and lamps falling out of lampholders), linear tungsten halogen (slumping filaments melting the quartz tubes resulting in premature lamp failures or lamp expansion problems), and the introduction of T8 tubular fluorescent lamps (not starting, low light output).

Figure 1 shows a cutaway diagram of a power LED showing how the first stage of heat removal is achieved using a large metal slug (heat sink) upon which the LED chip is mounted. Later stages need to ensure good thermal transmission to and though any printed circuit board and onto the luminaire’s metal heat sink to transfer the heat to the environment Figure 2 shows two recent 800 lm LED retrofit lamps to replace the 60 W GLS lamp. These are shown to show the thermal management used. These include the LED drivers, so the thermal management is needed to not only maintain the chip junction temperature but to FIGURE 1.

thermal management so that the modules operate over a suitable temperature range. LED luminaires, like LED retrofit lamps, tend to use more metal than non-LED luminaires. That metal adds weight and can be expensive, so its optimum design is essential. It is very expensive making many prototypes and having them thermally tested, especially in detecting hot spots and in optimising heat sink design. It is preferable to use passive cooling, rather than adding cost, complexity and potential for failure by adding fans or bellows. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) allows the prediction of heat flow through complex structures comprising a variety of materials in any shape; it is for thermal design what finite element analysis was in freeing structural design from simple mechanics. CFD allows the FIGURE 2. Heat sinks are prominent features of the Philips 12.5 W EnduraLED LED alternative to the 60 W incandescent A19 lamp (left) and Cree’s demonstration replacement (right).

modelling of the luminaire – its form, materials, heat sources and its environment – without the need for the trial-and-error of development from physical prototypes. To demonstrate the process, an LED downlight will be designed, modelled and tested. It is shown in Figure 3, with the following specification: three Philips LUXEON K2 cold white LEDs; 1000 mA forward current; 9.6 W total power dissipation; 60,000 hours required life time; 124 °C lifetime junction temperature limit at 20 °C ambient and 150 °C max junction temperature limit at 40 °C ambient. The thermal modelling was conducted by ATS Europe using Future Facilities’ 6SigmaET simulation software to model the thermal performance of the luminaire (see Figure 4) and was compared with analytical calculations and the eventual prototype measurements (Figures 5 and 6). Different configurations of printed circuit boards (PCB) were evaluated using the software). The configurations included FR4

We then designed the luminaire and had a hand built sample made and tested that against our mathematical model. We then painted it white then black so we have data not only design angles but for all colours, including clear. We were within 4% of the mathematical model when we committed to tooling and re-ran all the thermals on actual product.” Because of the importance of good thermal management for LED luminaires, good manufacturers spend a lot of time and money optimising the performance of heat sinks, not only thermally but economically, since heat sinks are heavy and can be costly.

because of the list of world leading architects and designers that were involved. Each floor or space was designed by a different creative, such as, Zaha Hadid and John Pawson. Mark was the lighting design leader responsible for all spaces. The light design had to react to each individual style whilst tying the wholes space together. It was important the quality of light and the human experience of the spaces were consistent across the hotel whilst still being individual to each specific style. The design challenge, in effect was like designing 10 hotels all at once.

BANGKOK Light and Water DESIGN WORKSHOP

To mark the move from the lecture room to the site, on the third evening, everyone piled onto a ferry to enjoy the hour on the river when the lighting on the riverside wats, temples and palaces takes centre stage. Then a short walk provided a chance for relaxing indulgence in some local Thai cuisine at a landmark restaurant, called “The Deck”. This eatery sits opposite another historic landmark on the river, Wat Arun. The golden lighting on this majestic prang (a richlycarved finger shaped spire) perfectly echoes its historic and cultural links with the Grand Palace, on the opposite bank of the river, with which it stands in line. The workshop was conducted on a site on the Chao Phraya River – at Wat Prayurawongsawas on the Thonburi side of the river (Figure 3). The two days of practical work was cleverly “launched” on site by the very urbane head monk of the wat (monastery temple), Dr Phra Dharmakosajrn, who spoke about the meaning of light in the Buddhist philosophy. He entertained a captivated audience, interspersing his clear and measured insights with witty and informative observations. His lecture provided the group with an understanding of his vision for

Lockit System for Spot Light LED Light Engines with separated ECG (Zhaga compliant) The first step of the “Lockit System” has been the “Locking Ring” which is a solution developed by A.A.G. STUCCHI to allow a screwless alternative fixing to the heat sink for SPOT LED Light Engines with separated ECG (Zhaga book 3). The locking ring is made of two components: an holder and a ring. The holder get screwed into the heat sink and thanks to the “spring+rivet” system guarantees the proper pressure of the Spot LED module on the TIM (Thermal interface material), good air flow for a more effective heat dissipation and the interchangeability of Spot LED modules; the ring blocks the Spot LED module. Starting from the Locking Ring, A.A.G. STUCCHI has developed a complete system for downlight luminaire quick and easy assembling: the “Lockit System”. The “Lockit System” is a ready to use solution that in its full configuration includes: a Spot LED module, an holder, a reflector and an heat sink. The reflector (developed by Almeco which is an Italian leader in the engineering and production of aluminium reflectors) is clamped directly onto the holder,

D-CO LED Range by Thorn Lighting D-CO LED is Thorn’s new range of LED luminaires which has the flexibility to master a range of decorative indoor or outdoor lighting solutions. There are four families of interior fittings, including fixed and multidirectional recessed downlights. Designed with 1.2W LEDs in two colour temperatures (4000K or 3000K), the units are available in a 35o beam angle and are a suitable replacement for 20-35W MR16 halogen fittings or where accent lighting is required. The indoor range also includes a 116 mm square recessed wall light combining a 1.6W LED in two colour temperatures (3000K or 6500K) with an asymmetric reflector, resulting in a wash of light which is ideal for corridors and stairways. The D-CO LED outdoor range consists of three different sized in-ground recessed luminaires using 3000K 1.2W LEDs. All are cool-tothe-touch, stainless steel trim and IP67; frosted glass for the two smaller versions ideal for guidance lighting and clear glass for the large version suitable for accent lighting.
