A WINNER AT MEDWAY PARK SPORTS HALL
Good lighting is key to creating the right conditions for playing sport. LED lighting is
ideal for sports halls, as it provides bright, uniform lighting while reducing running costs by up to 75% over traditional lighting. Earlsmann and NCS Technology have recently designed and installed new sports hall lighting at Medway Park sports centre in Kent, applying their combined expertise to meet client needs.
Covering all your LED needs, from design
to installation Following on from successful lighting projects at Hoo and Strood leisure centres in Medway in 2015, NCS and Earlsmann successfully bid for the contract to undertake a major LED lighting upgrade at Medway Park, the area’s most prestigious sports centre. The project included replacing the lighting in the main sports hall, which is used for a wide range of different sports.
Earlsmann modelled the lighting using RELUX software. Based on this exercise, the company supplied 126 Gigaterra 100W EFL high bay lights to replace the SON fittings. NCS Technology installed these in the sports hall outside of peak hours, minimising disruption to users. The specified 600+ lux was achieved well in time for the badminton tournament.
LED lighting helps to create a Centre of
Sporting Excellence at Medway Park Feedback on the new lighting has been overwhelmingly positive – all sports are benefiting from playing under the new brighter LED lights. Medway Park proudly promotes itself as a Centre of Sporting Excellence for the region. The twelve- court, multi-use sports hall is a key part of this offering. The new LED lighting is providing ideal conditions for elite sport, including tournaments and training camps for badminton, basketball, judo and volleyball.
LED lighting investment rewarded with
quick payback The client took advantage of a Salix energy efficiency public finance loan to fund the project. The new LED lighting provides impressive savings of up to 75% from day one, through reduced energy use and maintenance costs – covering the investment in LEDs within two years (well within the payback period required by the Salix funding).
Earlsmann – your experienced partner in Struggling with low light levels at sports
facilities? Upgrade! The existing lighting was 250W low bay type SON fittings and needed regular replacement to maintain the required lux levels. An important national Badminton competition was scheduled to take place in October 2016, so it was imperative that the lighting was improved to meet the national standard light levels of at least 600 lux.
