Power: 30 - 1800 watts
Brightness: 4,800 - 342,000 lumens
Full cut-off: 75° - 72° - 69° - 66° - 63°
Colour temperature: 5000K - 1800K
DarkLicht is an innovative full-cutoff LED luminaire that revolutionises the way large grounds, sports fields and industrial sites are lit. This Dutch-designed system from DCbright scores with maximum light output (up to 190 lm/W) and minimal light pollution thanks to patented reflector technology. Whether for sports facilities, construction and industrial areas or nature and bat trails: DarkLicht guarantees efficient lighting with an exceptionally low stray light factor.
All DarkLicht luminaires share the DCbright DNA, resulting in an impact-resistant construction (IK07) and highly resistant coatings. If you are looking for refined power and reliable performance in environments where net efficiency and light pollution are top priorities, DarkLicht is your ideal choice.
Together with DCbright, the design team in the Netherlands has years of experience in industrial lighting solutions, including mining and offshore. DarkLicht emerged from the desire for a nature-inclusive solution as a high-end planar illuminator:
Power: 30 - 1800 watts
Brightness: 4,800 - 342,000 lumens
Full cut-off: 75° - 72° - 69° - 66° - 63°
Colour temperature: 5000K - 1800K
Unlike classic lens technology, DarkLicht accurately directs all light towards the surface to be illuminated. This results in:
Thanks to the patented reflector, the light from the DarkLicht luminaire is completely shielded above 75°, virtually eliminating light pollution. There is therefore no light emission in unwanted directions, making it DarkSky- and CIE-compatible.
DarkLight Flat-radiators
The largest versions of the DarkLight range, intended for large-scale applications such as industrial sites, ports, sports facilities or high-rise masts. Here you benefit from the highest light output with the characteristic scattered light limitation.

In demanding industrial sites, DarkLicht's full-cutoff design ensures high lighting levels while causing little or no disruption to the outside world. Moreover, the luminaire is resistant to dust, moisture and varying temperatures which maximises reliability.
DarkLight is highly suitable for terminals, container depots and outdoor areas where intensive activities take place. Thanks to the full-cutoff reflector, you minimise light nuisance towards nearby residents or passing traffic, while providing optimum visibility for ground staff.
Whether gigantic shovels, foundation machines, harbour cranes or heavy off-road vehicles: DarkLight delivers intense, directional lighting without glare. This simplifies working in the dark and promotes safety for operator and surroundings.

DarkLight uses full-cutoff reflectors instead of traditional lenses. This virtually eliminates upward and sideways stray light, greatly reducing light nuisance and actually increasing the effective light output on the target surface. The innovative reflector technology is unique of its kind and guarantees compliance with DarkSky and NSVV standards.
Thanks to its full-cutoff technology and optional 2200 K light colour, DarkLicht is officially DarkSky-compatible. This makes the luminaire suitable for sensitive flora and fauna areas such as bat trails or nature reserves. It minimises light pollution, respects the night sky and prevents disturbance to local ecosystems.
Yes. DarkLicht is designed with a very precise light image, which ensures compliance with light pollution limits in almost all classes. Using light calculations and a correct mounting height, it is possible to meet all NSVV Light Nuisance 2020 requirements, even at high power levels.
Sure. DarkLight can be easily mounted on mobile masts or temporary frames, making it ideal for construction sites, events or emergency lighting. The full-cutoff reflector also ensures high visibility in these situations, without blinding the surroundings or causing light pollution.
It depends on your needs. Sports fields often choose 5000 K for optimal visibility, while industrial sites benefit from 4000 K for natural colour rendering. In or near nature reserves, you can choose 2200 K (amber) to minimise disturbance to flora and fauna. We will be happy to advise you on the right light colour.
Yes. As standard, the housing is high-quality titanium-coated aluminium. For offshore, chemical or extremely corrosive environments, the DLM-60 has a 316L stainless steel version available. This variant has the same full-cutoff reflector and features, but with extra protection against rust and aggressive chemicals.
With its high protection rating (IP67/IK07) and hard-wearing coating, DarkLicht requires little maintenance. Periodic cleaning of the front with a soft cloth or low-pressure water jet is sufficient to remove dust and dirt. The robust housing and reflector are designed to withstand intensive use and changing weather conditions, so additional maintenance is rarely required.
Yes, DarkLicht can be equipped with different dimming and control protocols, such as 1-10 V, DALI or even wireless solutions. This allows you to further reduce energy consumption by controlling intensity based on timetables, motion sensors or other smart integrations.
In most cases, yes. DarkLicht is modular and available with various mounting brackets or brackets. This allows you to easily replace existing lighting columns or luminaires, provided the construction has sufficient load-bearing capacity and the mounting height is suitable for full-cutoff lighting. If required, we can support you with lighting calculations and mounting solutions.
At JEL Products we continue to innovate. Our lighting solutions are designed in the Netherlands in cooperation with leading end-users from the European market to achieve affordable and universal total solutions for the global market. This has resulted in:
With DarkLicht, you get a unique LED surface area light that combines the advantages of high efficiency (190 lm/W) and virtually no light pollution. Ideal for sports facilities, industrial sites, construction sites and nature areas. Take your lighting level to the next level while protecting the night sky, flora and fauna.
Forward-thinking operators, terminal operators and drivers choose our lighting to maximise workplace safety and really see where they are working. Never again stand in the dark due to broken and inadequate lamps. Avoid costly replacement and choose a surface-mounted luminaire that does last throughout your operations. Essential at a time when sustainability and environmentally conscious construction are key.
For years, for example, DarkLicht has been helping industrial operators and companies to meet the EN 12464-2 standardisation for safe outdoor lighting, by combining high light output with easy installation and minimal energy waste.
Why is this important for businesses?
Our lighting solutions are designed to meet the requirements of the European established standard EN 12464-2 when it comes to product properties. If you also wish to meet the technical requirements, please contact our lighting experts.
Want to know if DarkLicht (or Dark Light) is the ideal solution for your terrain, sports field or nature application?
Our lighting specialists are ready to create a customised lighting plan and organise a demonstration if required,
so you can experience the benefits of full-cutoff lighting for yourself.
Specially designed frame that mounts effortlessly on tower cranes. Provides large-scale, glare-free lighting at high heights for safe and efficient lifting.
A more powerful worklight series for mid-range power. Perfect for larger machines or vehicles that require robust, reliable light output, without stray light outside the working area.
The most compact work light within DarkLicht, ideal for smaller construction machinery or off-road vehicles. Full-cutoff reflector technology in a lightweight housing.
A fully autonomous light tower that runs on batteries. Quickly deployable as temporary lighting, events or construction sites where mains power is not available, naturally with the distinctive DarkLicht lens shield.
