Technical answers about solar tracking, fiber optic transmission, light efficiency and real-world applications.
Test conditions: clear-sky noon, single fiber, illuminated area ≈1 m².
| Fiber Length | Illuminance at 1m | Illuminance at 2m | Suitable Scenarios |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30 m | ≈1100 lux | ≈450 lux | Offices, classrooms, detailed work |
| 50 m | ≈800 lux | ≈320 lux | Offices, public spaces, kitchens |
| 100 m | ≈200 lux | ≈80 lux | Basements, corridors, guidance lighting |
For main lighting with fiber longer than 50 m, consider reducing the area per luminaire or using 6 fibers per light. Above 300 lux meets office standards; 50-meter fiber delivers ample brightness.
Every diffuser luminaire has a built-in LED unit. When sunlight is insufficient, the system automatically switches to LED mode, delivering uniform illumination and seamless 24‑hour lighting.
The quartz optical fibers have a service life of over 50 years when correctly installed. Mechanical components such as the solar tracking unit require periodic inspection, similar to other outdoor solar equipment.
| Model | Collection Area | Fibers | Recommended Area | Typical Luminaires (3 fibers/light) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DY60 | ≈0.47 m² | 60 | 180 m² | 20 lights |
| DY36 | ≈0.28 m² | 36 | 108 m² | 12 lights |
| DY18 | ≈0.14 m² | 18 | 54 m² | 6 lights |
| DP12 | ≈0.09 m² | 12 | 36 m² | 4 lights |
| DP06 | ≈0.047 m² | 6 | 18 m² | 2 lights |
Selection is based on the area of the space and required illuminance. For ceiling heights above 3 meters or tasks needing higher brightness (reading, detailed work), choose a larger model or configure 6 fibers per luminaire.
The cost consists of four parts: collector unit + quartz optical fibers + diffuser luminaires + installation. There is no fixed price; it must be calculated per project, with total fiber length being the key variable.
Calculation steps: ① Choose collector model → ② Plan luminaire positions and quantity → ③ Measure or estimate each fiber route length → ④ Sum up total fiber meters. Provide a floor plan and approximate fiber route length, and we will deliver a proposal the same day.
Based on one fiber per lens and default 3 fibers per luminaire: DY60 supports up to 20 lights, DY36 up to 12, DP12 up to 4, etc. For more light points, reduce fibers per luminaire or choose a larger model. Configuring 6 fibers per light boosts brightness (number of luminaires will halve).
