Product Family
Modular LED floodlight family for large outdoor work and operating areas – from airport aprons to logistics yards and port facilities.
R–System
“Large outdoor areas also call for precisely controlled light – for clear orientation, safe operations, and respect for the night.
Overview of sizes

R3
3 light modules (max. 357 klm), mounted with universal bracket, compatible with A-Series lenses

R2
2 light modules (max. 238 klm), mounted with universal bracket, compatible with A-Series lenses

R1
1 light module (max. 119 klm), mounted with multifunction bracket, compatible with A-Series lenses
This sets R–System apart

Light where it is needed
Left-, right-, and double-asymmetric light distributions align the lighting with use zones such as aircraft stands, loading bays, traffic lanes, and staging areas. Light is applied where operations require it.

From the Arctic to the desert
R–System is used in more than 300 airport projects worldwide – from the airfield in Greenland to the Dubai hub. In total, it has proven itself in more than 700 large-area projects – in logistics centers, handling areas, and port facilities.

Dark-Sky certified
R–System directs light asymmetrically from a horizontal position deep and wide across outdoor areas – with no direct uplight. If the luminaire is tilted, a full cut-off shield limits light output above the horizontal.

Scales with the site
R–System is modular: R1, R2, and R3 represent one, two, or three light modules. With different light distributions, output packages, and mounting options, it can be tailored to site size, mounting height, and structural requirements.
Shape of light – Safe outdoor work areas
Whether loading a truck in a logistics yard or handling an A380 on an airport apron: custom-developed asymmetric light distributions and the multilayer principle of our lens optics provide uniformly illuminated work areas and safe orientation outdoors.
Body of light – Robust and durable
An aluminium alloy with less than 0.1% copper increases R–System’s corrosion resistance. This makes the LED floodlight suitable for demanding outdoor environments where salty air, moisture, or aggressive vapors put stress on the material. The optional ewoECP coating provides additional surface protection.

The fastest path to lighting design
LightFinder handles the iteration: enter the area, target values, mast positions, and mounting heights, then let it calculate a matching R–System configuration. This turns many possible variants into an optimized, standards-compliant solution faster.
