Ceiling lighting just isn’t enough for most industrial applications. Adding task lighting is one of the simplest and most inexpensive ways to increase safety and productivity. Bulwark Safety Systems has arranged for an industrial task lighting demo kit from Banner Engineering. This kit includes a light meter and the most popular options for industrial LED task lighting.
The following table shows recommended lux levels for different industrial applications and for different ages of workers. A lux meter can be used to get live or before and after lux levels to help ensure your illumination levels are sufficient for the space, task, and people.
Application Recommended Lux Ages 25-65 Recommended Lux Ages 65+
Warehouse 100 200
Work area 150 300
General assembly 1,000 2,000
Detailed assembly 2,000 4,000
Fine inspection 5,000 10,000
