LED stadium lights mainly serve athletes, referees, spectators, cameras, and fans in front of the TV (during broadcast-level games). The 0-elevation angle installation of LED stadium lights means that when installing the lights, the light-emitting surface of the lights should be parallel to the ground. This installation requirement mainly applies to Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. In these countries, LED stadium lights will be installed on brackets at a certain distance from the ground to ensure that the lights illuminate all corners of the playing field without producing a dazzling halo. This design can improve the spectators’ viewing experience while ensuring good lighting effects on the playing field.
0 elevation installation ensures uniformity and efficiency of light. By installing the LED stadium lights at 0 elevation angle (i.e. horizontal position), the light can be directed to the area (PA) that needs lighting, minimizing energy waste and light scattering. This not only improves the lighting effect but also reduces energy consumption and extends the life of the lamp. At the same time, zero-elevation angle installation also helps reduce light pollution and avoid affecting the surrounding environment and residents’ quality of life. Taken together, LED stadium lights installed at 0 elevation angle are an efficient and environmentally friendly lighting method that can meet modern sports and outdoor venues’ lighting needs.
AIKO’s star product HARMONY G3 AFL09 has been installed at zero elevation angle in some tennis court projects, perfectly controlling spilled light. At the same time, AIKO’s ultimate optical system can enhance athletes’ visual experience, allowing them to focus more on and enjoy the game. Its 1500W wind resistance is only 0.196㎡ when installed at a 0 elevation angle, which is very safe and more suitable for European countries.
