OFFICE LIGHTING
improved visual comfort
The OLC optics is a unique 3D optical system
that provides optimal glare control. Uneven light
distribution and patch luminance is totally
eliminated all-round, without compromising on
optical efficiency. This provides greater freedom
in interior design. The office layout does not
depend on the arrangement of the lighting
installation or vice versa.
Improved lamp shielding
Another unique feature of the X-tend family is the
flat lamella with a concave contour. It is specially
designed so there is an all-around cut-off angle
which provides improved lamp shielding,
compared to the current generation of cross-
lamellae. The undulating wave design of the flat
lamella profile disseminates a soft, glowing light
without any harsh, bright spots.
Benefits
• Higher efficiency
• Pleasant brightness
• Distinguished and prestigious look
Without compromising on visibility, Philips’ X-tend
luminaire family complies with international glare
norms to ensure visual comfort. The optimised end
reflector is designed to prevent direct glare caused
by light spots.
Most conventional office luminaires allow for
glare which causes discomfort and can even
impair work performance when one is
exposed to it for long periods.
Greater flexibility
The office layout does not depend on the lighting
installation or vice versa
Within the office environment, X-tend OLC optics
provides optimal lighting minus the visual and physical
dominance from traditional fluorescent lighting.
