Tubular Luminaire System in the Sense of Product Responsibility

Abstract

In Europe, the topic of recycling and energy efficiency is currently much at the focus. At the start of a new development process it is necessary to observe under all circumstances the aspect of product responsibility, like multiple reusability, long service life and suitability for environmentally compatible recycling and waste disposal. The scientifically-founded new tubular luminaire system discussed, with its extremely short sealing surfaces is specially suited for humid and dusty environments through an architecturally pleasing design and it fulfils these criteria in view, of the utilisation of modern materials and highest energy efficiency. Due to the modular design, all current electronic ballast units with the latest T5/16 mm lamp technology can be used. The use of most modern LED technology is also catered for by design.
