LED lighting specialist Glamox has supplied lighting to the world’s longest wellboat with the world’s largest freshwater tank.
Glamox’s DL60-R92 nightlight (red light) is being used in the wheelhouse of the 116m Ronja Storm, constructed by Norwegian ship technology company Havyard.
The design of the downlight, with the red light source placed in the back/top of the housing, ensures there is no glare in the windows. The light is only used to illuminate the instruments, which offers perfect visual conditions for the captain. The use of Digital Adressable Light Interface (DALI) enables the nightlight to be dimmed and adjusted for the best visibility.
Low-temperature lighting
Treatment in low temperature is required when storing marine resources. For this application, Glamox supplied its MIR luminaire (TA down to -25°C). The MIR S variant supplied to Ronja Storm is protected to IP67 (dust and waterproof).
Glamox also supplied its TL60 LED for the technical rooms on Ronja Storm. This LED luminaire is designed to meet maritime requirements, save energy and reduce maintenance costs due to its long lifetime (100,000 hours at Ta45).
The DL60 LED is a modern, slim downlight family with a built-in LED module. The downlight is very energy efficient and is designed to ensure a long product lifetime.
According to Havyard, Ronja Storm can produce 16.8m litres of fresh water per day and load 1,000t of fish per hour. That means 3,300 large salmon per minute. No other wellboats have used a direct current (DC) system before.
