Photometric Diagrams

Overview

FLT's optical solutions efficiently focus light where it’s needed. There are several standard lighting distributions that optimize performance for different applications. Each lighting distribution is full cutoff and compliant with DarkSky requirements. Measurements are in footcandles.

Type 2M

Two plots side by side: left is a polar coordinate plot with a red closed curve inside a circular grid; right is a rectangular contour plot with multiple colored contour lines forming irregular concentric shapes.

Type 2S

Comparison of a circular radar chart with a red highlighted sector and a horizontal color-coded contour plot with multiple contour lines representing different levels.

Type 3M

Two scientific diagrams: a polar plot showing a red outlined region within concentric grey radial lines on the left, and a multi-colored contour plot with nested, irregular loops on the right.

Type 3S

Two plots: on the left, a polar plot with radial and angular gridlines and a red line forming an irregular shape; on the right, a contour plot with concentric, irregularly shaped color-coded lines representing different levels on a black background.

Type 4

Two scientific diagrams side by side: left shows a polar plot with radial grid lines and an irregular red shape, right is a colored contour plot with concentric lines on a grid.

Type 5

Two scientific plots side by side: left is a polar plot with a red triangular shape and angular grid lines; right is a contour plot with five colored concentric contours labeled from 0.1 to 0.9 on a black background grid.
