application
These luminaires provide adequaie, unilorm rlluminalion {or special or unusual
roadway and area applications, where lower mounting heights are required,
They are completely weatherprool and suitable {or low temperature operation.
Type DLU luminaires have a relatively narrow, concentrated beam, more suitable
bridge
where direct iilumination is necessary or desirable.
Type FU Iuminaires have a wide beam making them applicable whete more
di{{used illumination is required or pre{erred. Specilically when illumination
on sidewalls and ceilings is bene{icial and atiraciive.
