New Waldmann LED Luminaire: 
Efficient and High-Quality Light for the Industrial Workplace

Whether in manufacture, assembly, quality assurance, or analysis: An uncompromising lighting solution is essential wherever your eyes are put to the test. As an arm-mounted or system luminaire, the new TANEO LED luminaire from Waldmann ensures luminous power to suit the particular application, high lighting quality, and ergonomic handling for ideal lighting conditions at industrial workstations. At the same time, it is especially energy-efficient.

Three Output Levels for the Right Luminous Power
With three available output levels (1,400, 2,600 and 3,600 lux), TANEO can properly fulfill every illuminance requirement. The associated advantage is that, in both procurement and operation, the costs are based on what is really needed. In every illuminance, TANEO saves up to 30 percent energy when compared to conventional industrial task luminaires with the same luminous power. This means: At an illuminance of 1,400 lux, the consumption is only 15-watt; for 2,600 or 3,600 lux, it is 31- or 47-watt, respectively.

The Latest LED Technology and High Lighting Quality
TANEO provides wide-range, homogeneous, glare-free, and shadow-free lighting. This is thanks to implemented technologies such as Light Forming and Ray Mixing. Effective glare-free technology options are available with a conical prism (CDP) or white opal screen. CDP is the right choice if the focus is on maximum efficiency. In contrast, the opal white screen provides completely homogeneous illumination to prevent disturbing light reflections, which is of primary importance when working with glossy parts.
At the same time, the light from TANEO is completely flicker-free. All this considerably relieves eye strain. Additional characteristics of TANEO improve work results. For example, the color temperatures used (4,000 or 5,000 K) make contrasts highly visible. In addition, the high color reproduction index (approx. 85 with CPD or approx. 90 with the opal white screen) generates an extremely good presentation of colors. Because the lighting quantity is dimmable up to 10 percent, TANEO adapts easily to individual needs at the workplace. A memory function saves the last setting used.

Arm-Mounted and System Luminaire
TANEO is available as an arm-mounted luminaire with a large radius of action or as a system luminaire for space-saving base assembly.
The arm can be effortlessly adjusted to any position. The position of the luminaire head can also be adjusted using the highly flexible 3D head joint. 
As a system luminaire, TANEO provides two space-saving and unobtrusive assembly options. The selection includes a design that is attached on both sides or a fold-out design. For example, this enables lateral illumination, ensuring shadow-free working in any task position. The luminaire head can be rotated in both system luminaire variants.
