LUMINAIRE FAMILY

The Decaflood luminaire is a dramatic new concept for parking lot, floodlight and decorative roadway
applications. The choice of three different optical assemblies allows you to coordinate your lighting
system around one basic luminaire design but gives you the freedom to select a specific light distribuiion to suit ihe individual lighting task.

.D
Decaflood lum inaires are
available in 4O0 and 1000 watt
mercury, metal halide and
Lucalox
