It is the standard method in professional lighting practice to validate a lighting design before a single luminaire is installed. The questions below delve deeper into when you need such a calculation, what it yields, and how you work with it in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When is a Dialux calculation mandatory or necessary?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not always legally required, but in many industrial and public projects a documented lighting calculation is indeed a hard requirement. Clients, contractors, insurers, and safety authorities are increasingly requesting a calculation as justification for the lighting design \u2014 especially in projects where safety is directly at stake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practice, a lighting calculation is necessary in the following situations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li>In tenders for industrial sites, ports, logistics centers, or construction projects where minimum lighting levels are contractually stipulated<\/li>\n <li>When an installation must comply with NEN standards or European EN standards for workplace lighting<\/li>\n <li>For permit applications where light pollution or light emission to the environment must be demonstrated<\/li>\n <li>As a basis for subsidy processes or energy-saving programs where the efficiency of an LED installation must be demonstrated<\/li>\n <li>In complex environments such as warehouses, production halls, or outdoor areas where uniformity and shadow formation are critical<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even if there is no formal obligation, a calculation is wise. It prevents you from discovering after installation that certain zones are too dark or that fixtures are positioned incorrectly. Remedial work is expensive and time-consuming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What exactly does Dialux calculate and what results does it produce?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The software simulates the lighting performance of a lighting installation in a virtual room or outdoor environment. Dialux uses the photometric data of luminaires, the geometry of the room, and the reflectance values of surfaces to calculate how light spreads. The results are direct measurements that you can test against standards and specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main results of a Dialux calculation are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li><strong>Average illuminance (Em)<\/strong>the average number of lux on the work surface or the floor<\/li>\n <li><strong>Minimum illuminance (Emin)<\/strong>the darkest place in the calculated zone<\/li>\n <li><strong>Uniformity (U0 or Uo)<\/strong>the ratio between the minimum and average value, a measure of how evenly the light is distributed<\/li>\n <li><strong>Glare rating (UGR)<\/strong>: the Unified Glare Rating, which indicates the extent to which luminaires cause distracting glare<\/li>\n <li><strong>Color Rendering Index (Ra\/CRI)<\/strong>how well colors are rendered under the calculated lighting<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to these core values, Dialux also generates false-color plots, isoline maps, and 3D visualizations. These make it clear for both technicians and non-technical decision-makers where the bottlenecks are in the <a href=\"https:\/\/jelproducts.nl\/en\/lighting-advice\/\">lighting design<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How reliable is a Dialux calculation in practice?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The simulation itself is mathematically correct \u2014 but the outcome depends entirely on the quality of the input data. Consider the photometric files of the luminaires, the accuracy of the room geometry, and the correctness of the assumed reflectance values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In industrial practice, there are a number of factors that influence reliability:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li><strong>Photometric data<\/strong>Use only IES or LDT files measured and certified by the manufacturer. Generic or inaccurate files will lead to inconsistent results.<\/li>\n <li><strong>Pollution factor<\/strong>In industrial environments, the light output of fixtures decreases due to dust, grease, or other buildup. A calculation without a maintenance or depreciation factor overestimates the actual illuminance over time.<\/li>\n <li><strong>Reflection values<\/strong>In a steel workshop or chemical plant, walls and floors are darker than in an office. Anyone who enters standard values gets an overly optimistic picture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A well-executed calculation with correct input data yields a result that is accurate to within a few percentage points in practice. That is sufficient to base a responsible installation choice on, even for demanding environments such as <a href=\"https:\/\/jelproducts.nl\/en\/sectors\/heavy-industry-extreme-heat\/\">Heavy industry with extreme heat<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between Dialux and Dialux Evo?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dialux Evo is the successor to the original Dialux and the version that is actively developed and supported today. The most important difference lies in how projects are structured: Dialux Evo works with a building structure where floors, rooms, and outdoor areas are managed as a single entity, whereas the original Dialux worked with separate, independent calculation scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For industrial projects, the practical differences can be summarized as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li><strong>Dialux Evo<\/strong> supports large, complex projects with multiple zones, floors, and outdoor areas in a single file. This is ideal for ports, terminals, or manufacturing facilities.<\/li>\n <li><strong>Dialux Evo<\/strong> has a more modern interface and better 3D rendering, which simplifies communication with clients.<\/li>\n <li><strong>The original DIALux<\/strong> is no longer actively updated, but is still in use by part of the market due to familiarity with the workflow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dialux Evo is the standard for new projects. Anyone still working with the old version runs the risk that manufacturers no longer provide compatible photometric files for the older format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who performs a Dialux calculation for an industrial project?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typically, that is a lighting consultant, a specialized installer, or a lighting supplier with lighting engineering expertise. It is not a standard job: a correct calculation requires knowledge of photometry, standards, and the specific environmental requirements of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the industrial market, there are three common routes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li><strong>The client is requesting an independent consultancy firm<\/strong> to make the calculation as part of a larger engineering or construction project. This provides the most independence, but requires a separate budget.<\/li>\n <li><strong>The installer or main contractor<\/strong> Have the calculation performed as part of the installation process. Many installers work with lighting suppliers who provide the calculation.<\/li>\n <li><strong>The lighting supplier<\/strong> performs the calculation as part of the product advice. This is the most common route in the industrial market, where the supplier uses its own luminaire data and provides a lighting design as the basis for the quotation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of who performs the calculation, it is wise to check whether the photometric data used come from certified measurements and whether the calculation takes into account the specific conditions of the location. More background on what qualitative lighting advice entails can be found on the page about <a href=\"https:\/\/jelproducts.nl\/en\/lighting-expertise\/\">lighting expertise<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which standards determine the outcome of a Dialux calculation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The outcome is tested against lighting standards that set minimum requirements for illuminance, uniformity, and glare per type of workplace or activity. In Europe, these are primarily the EN 12464 standards for workplace lighting and the EN 12193 standard for sports lighting. Additional guidelines apply to outdoor locations and sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most relevant standards for industrial lighting projects are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n <li><strong>EN 12464-1<\/strong>: indoor workplace lighting. Gives minimum values for Em, Emin, uniformity, and UGR per type of activity.<\/li>\n <li><strong>EN 12464-2<\/strong>lighting of outdoor workplaces. Applicable to sites, loading and unloading areas, construction sites and outdoor storage areas.<\/li>\n <li><strong>ATEX Guidelines<\/strong>in potentially explosive environments, additional requirements apply to the luminaires themselves, which indirectly also influence the calculation parameters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dialux lets you set the desired standards as a reference, so you can immediately see in the report which zones comply and which fall short. For <a href=\"https:\/\/jelproducts.nl\/en\/terrain-lighting\/\">industrial site lighting<\/a> is EN 12464-2 typically the starting point, supplemented by any sector-specific requirements from the client or competent authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Case Study: DFDS Terminal Lighting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A good example of how Dialux calculations make a difference in practice is the project at DFDS\u2014a major European shipping company with a busy terminal. The main challenge was to achieve a uniform illuminance level across a vast outdoor area with heavy traffic of trucks, forklifts, and pedestrians, while keeping light pollution to the surrounding area to a minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the design choices, the pole distribution played a central role: by carefully calculating the positioning and beam width of the luminaires in Dialux Evo, it could be demonstrated that the uniformity requirement (U0) was met without excessive light spill occurring toward adjacent residential areas. Operationally, moreover, there was little room for maintenance shutdowns, which meant that luminaires with a high IP rating and long lifespan were selected\u2014factors that were also factored into the maintenance factor (light loss factor) of the calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lesson learned connects directly to the subject of this article: a Dialux calculation is not just a technical formality, but a design tool that guides choices. By using the simulation early in the process, expensive adjustments after installation were avoided and the client was able to use the lighting report as justification to the competent authority.
