As a leader in high performance

optical system development, Moldcast

strives

to provide lighting specifiers with

the mosl effective lighting solutions

possible.

ln a major step foMard in the state of

the art, Moldcast is proud to bring you
SOLUS. The large scale area light designed
to the requirements of the nineties.

in common with verlical iamp

luminaires, SOLUS coJlects as much light
as possible

from the arc tube of an HID

lamp using an upper collecting reflector

and inner faceted basket shaped reflectors.
Some of this light is redirected to {ormed

and faceted internal reflectors which focus

and direct light to selected angles above

50'. Light from the upper portion of the

arc tube, usually wasted, is redirected to

distributing reflectors in the housing and

lens {rame

to provide additional high angle

light, giving SOLUS its exceptionally high

combination with precisely placed reflector
facets and the lens frame, cut off projected

light within

beam. This provides precise glare control

not possible in comparably perlorming

vertical lamp luminaires where the arc tube

of the lamp projects below the rim of the
reflector, thereby projecting uncontrolled

light into the "glare zone" (77rl:'to 90")

and above.

enhance the essentially square distribution
pattern to ronplplely fill in the rorncrs

providing higher levels of illumination and

better uniformity in grid patterns.
The convex lens maintains the
architectural theme of the housing and

minimizes internal reflection allowing

more precise control of light. This assins

in maintaining the excellent uniformity of

distribution that is the key to 'teeability".
