Tennis Court LED Lighting Upgrade - Newstead Tennis & Squash Centre

Replacement of metal halide lighting 600W Asymmetric Beam Tennis Court Lights

For this tennis lighting project we were contacted by Newstead Tennis and Squash Centre with the request to meet club competition tennis court lighting levels of 350 lux maintained. The initial requirement is 435 lux but this is for metal halide type lighting in which we see a significant drop in initial illumination and over time this drops to approximately 50 to 60% of the original light output. In contrast, LED Lighting might drop 5% after they are switched on and largely maintain that level over their life span, at least 90% over 50,000 hours. For this reason we use a conservative light loss factor of 0.88 when running simulations. 

Newstead Tennis Club were willing to comprimise for Social Tennis Court Lighting levels of 250 lux maintained due to their restricted budget but we were able to come in within budget to meet the 350 lux Club Competition Tennis Court Lighting Levels by using 16 of our LITE-EL-400-TC 400W tennis court lights.

The simulations below show our 400W specialised asymmetric beam LED Tennis Court Flood Light (LITE-EL-400-TC) with an average on court illumination level of 347 to 381 lux and a uniformity of 0.83 to 0.89 using the existing pole heights and spacings. 

Note that the tennis court light levels for convenience were simulated at court surface rather than 1m above the court where they would read a little higher.
