Gecko – Powerful light from avirtually invisible source

Glare-free accent lighting, flood-lighting and wallwashing in theoutdoor areaGecko emanates refined powerdespite its compact form. This isachieved by combining a slightlyconical shape with quality designdetails such as seamless transitions.With its fluid, round outlines, thisoutdoor lighting tool enhancesgardens and parks as an adaptabledesign feature which integratesflexibly in any surroundings. Thesmall housing conceals sophist-icated photometric properties:Optionally producing a uniformwide beam or sharp-edged accentlight, Gecko creates impressive

façade and other outdoor lightingeffects that require just a few ofthese luminaires. Excellent glarecontrol ensures accent lighting,floodlighting and wallwashingfrom a virtually invisible lightsource. With a luminaire head thatcan be tilted and rotated in anydirection, Gecko is quick and easyto adjust precisely to the requiredposition, as its maintenance-freeLED optoelectronics help to reducethe operating costs.

Improved visual comfortERCO has developed luminaireswith special housing designs andhighquality optical componentsspecifically for demanding visualtasks to provide enhanced visualcomfort.

Oval flood freely rotatableThe round oval flood Spherolitlens can be freely rotated with allluminaires to optimally align thelight to various objects.

Small luminaire dimensionsSmall luminaires are discreet andplace the focus on the light itself.Small luminaire dimensions are par-ticularly advantageous in compactroom situations.

ProjectorsNarrow spot, Spot, Flood

AccentuationThe ideal angle of tilt (y) foraccent lighting with Gecko project-ors is around 30°. This emphasisesthe three-dimensionality of archi-tectural details, sculptures or trees,without distorting the spatialimpression with excessive shad-owing.

Arrangement: y = 30°

FloodlightsWide flood, Extra wide flood, Ovalflood

α

WashlightingGecko projectors ensure uniformfloodlighting of long wall surfaces,columns or trees. The ideal angle oftilt (y) for this is around 30°

Arrangement: y = 30°

Lens wallwashersWallwash

γ

h

WallwashingUniform vertical illuminance inthe outdoor area defines spatialborders. Here, the distance (a) ofGecko lens wallwashers from thewall should be around one third ofthe room height (h). This results inan angle of tilt (c) of approx. 55°.

Arrangement: a = 1/3 x h orc = 55°

For good longitudinal uniformity,the spacing (d) of Gecko lens wall-washers may be up to 1.2 times theoffset from the wall (a).

Arrangement: d ≤ 1.2 x a

The optimal wall offset and lumin-aire spacing for each product areindicated in the wallwasher tablesin the catalogue and the productdata sheets.
