LED Warehouse Lighting - Indoor Hockey Field - Maryborough Hockey Association

We were approached by Tony Quail from Maryborough & District Hockey Association to upgrade their warehouse style indoor hockey stadium.

The Sporting Body FIH recommends the following minimum requirements for indoor hockey lighting:

  • hockey training and local club play: 500 lux
  • major regional and international matches: 750 lux
  • televised matches: 1000 lux

Tony requested that we aim for a minimum of 750 lux whilst staying within a specified budget.

750 lux is a very high level of lighting even for fine assembly detail factory standards. We were going to need a very high power or highoutput Factory style high bay light to achieve the minimum target lighting levels of 750 lux. 

We tested a four different high bay models with different beam configurations with a power level ranging from 150 to 240W. The final selection was 10 x high output 160 lm/W 240W UFO highbays in 120° beam angle (LITE-GS-HB-240), and 18 high output 160 lm/W 240W UFO highbays in 90° beam angle (LITE-GS-HB-240). This provided the most cost effective design whilst providing an average illumination of 760 lux. 

Please see simulation below for further details.
