Do you need photometric files for the calculation?
DIALux works from LDT or IES files. Where the manufacturer publishes them for a luminaire, we model that luminaire. Where not, we state it in the report instead of substituting other data.

Lighting Design, Calculation and Control Services
Lighting design, DIALux calculation, control systems and LED retrofit, with ALKAN® luminaires supplied and commissioned by Powersense.
01Overview
Supply and engineering from one team
Powersense is the ALKAN® distributor in Montenegro and the lighting engineer for the project. We calculate, design and control the lighting, supply the luminaires and commission the system, so the approved calculation is what gets installed.

From requirements to handover
- 01
Brief and target values
Use, tasks and daylight are analysed, and target illuminance, uniformity, glare and colour rendering are taken from EN 12464-1, EN 13201, EN 12193 or EN 1838.
DeliverableLighting criteria sheet - 02
Concept and luminaire selection
Luminaires, optics and colour temperature are chosen from photometric data, with 3D views where they help the decision.
DeliverableConcept report, luminaire shortlist - 03
DIALux calculation
Illuminance, uniformity, glare and energy use are calculated in DIALux evo, using manufacturer photometric data where it is available.
DeliverableCalculation report, isolux plots - 04
Control strategy
Scenes, schedules, presence and daylight control are specified for DALI-2, KNX or wireless systems.
DeliverableControl concept, device schedule - 05
Supply and installation coordination
Luminaires, poles, cabling and controls are supplied against the calculation and coordinated with the installing contractor.
DeliverableBill of quantities, installation drawings - 06

Technical notes and FAQ
Can the calculation be done before ordering?
Yes. Send plans, mounting heights and the applicable standard, and we return the calculation before anything is ordered.
