Flood Beam Pattern for Wide Area Illumination
Flood beam patterns distribute light over a broad area, ideal for tasks requiring visibility across large surfaces. The KOWK117, rated at 18W, offers a flood or spot beam option, allowing flexibility in mounting and use. Its IP67 rating ensures reliability in dusty or wet conditions. This pattern is effective for loading docks, warehouse floors, and vehicle underbody inspections where uniform coverage is critical. Use only when the task does not require focused light at distance.
Spot Beam Pattern for Long Distance Visibility
Spot beam patterns concentrate light into a narrow, focused beam, extending visibility to greater distances. While not explicitly stated in the facts, the KOWK117’s spot option and the KOWK20 series’ high-performance design suggest suitability for long-range tasks. These are used on machinery where operators need to see obstacles or markings beyond 10 meters. Spot beams reduce glare for oncoming traffic and improve precision in alignment or inspection work.
Arc Beam Optics for Pedestrian Safety Zones
The KOF95 features strong arc optics designed to project a visible boundary around forklifts and mobile equipment. This pattern creates a defined, curved light zone that signals a safe working perimeter to pedestrians. Its dual-color capability allows for visual distinction between active and standby modes. The arc beam is particularly effective in high-traffic warehouse environments where human safety is a priority. ECE R10 compliance ensures electromagnetic compatibility in vehicle electrical systems.
Electrical and Environmental Compliance for Global Use
All listed models operate within 10-30V or 10-80V ranges, compatible with standard vehicle electrical systems. ECE R10 approval is confirmed for KOF95 and KOWK5025, ensuring interference-free operation. IP67 protection is verified for KOWK117, meaning dust tight and protected against water immersion. These certifications are essential for importers placing orders in Europe, North America, and Australia. Verify voltage and approval status per model before procurement.
Model Selection Based on Application and Mounting
Choose the KOWK117 for cost-effective, flexible flood or spot lighting in standard work environments. The KOWK20 series, with OSRAM LEDs and temperature self-control, suits high-reliability applications. KOWK5025 combines work light and position light functions in a single unit, reducing wiring complexity. KOWK01 and KOWK03 series are popular for their on/off switch and design, suitable for fleet upgrades. Match the model to the machine’s mounting space, power supply, and required beam pattern.
