Product Descriptions
Reflecto-luminescent signs are a unique product which offer the advantage of combining two sign concepts; i.e. retro-reflection and photoluminescence (phosphorescence). This allows the sign to perform a dual function:
- When the sign is met with external direct light in the form of vehicle headlights or torchlight it reacts in a retro-reflective manner such as traffic signs do. The light is reflected back in the same direction as its source which allows total visibility of the sign and its inherent message;
- In the absence of light, the photoluminescent (phosphorescent) properties of the sign emit light in the form of stored energy which is absorbed from surrounding light and direct light from vehicle headlights. This process allows the sign to communicate its inherent message for a period in excess of 340 minutes which is the minimum period required by the Norms.
Everlux-RL signs are also extremely effective in situations where Fire and Rescue Services need to locate fire-fighting equipment such as risers or hydrants. The retro-reflective properties of the signs allow quick identification of the equipment either from vehicle headlights or by torchlight.
It is the ideal marking solution for car parks, warehouses and mines.
Technical characteristics |
Retro-reflective properties:The retro-reflective backing used in Everlux-RL products meets the coefficient values of retro-reflective products as specified in the European Norm EN 12899-1:2001 for vertical signs.
Bearing in mind an observation angle of 20’ (0.33º) and an entrance angle of +5º, the values for the coefficient of retro-reflective are as follows:
Retro-reflective backing in white | Coefficient of retro-reflective lu.m2 |
EN 12899-1: 2011 | 50 |
Everlux RL | 60 |
Photoluminescent (phosphorescent) properties:Everlux-RL products meet the international norms DIN 67510-1:2009 and ISO 16 069:2004. In conditions of stimulation with 1000 lux for 5 minutes, and in conditions of stimulation with a surrounding light of only 25 lux for 15 minutes, they demonstrate the following photoluminescent (phosphorescent) properties:
Time after removing the exciting light | Luminance properties:Considering the stimulation of a 25 lux L36W/21 – 840 cool white light for 15 minutes (mcd/m2) | Period of light decay | |
10 minutes | 60 minutes | Luminance intensity greater than a 0,32 mcd/m2 | |
