3 3D light calculation like working in the real world Christian Pascal s working day at Glamox is much simpler with the calculation programme Optiwin 3D Pro. A unique laboratory for sophisticated testing We have an entirely unique lab, surely one of the best equipped environmental test centres for lighting equipment in Europe. Christian Pascal, Project Manager Photo: Arild Moen I have worked with lighting design for Glamox since Previously design projects could take up to a month with the tools we had available. Nowadays, with Optiwin 3D Pro, I can do the same work in half an hour. Christian Pascal, Project Manager, sings the praises of Optiwin 3D Pro. Customers using the new system indicate their savings to be up to 70% in electroengineering. It is now possible to view the positioning of light fixtures in 3D at an early stage of a project. This also reduces the possibility of installation errors and the costs they incur, explains Pascal. He continues talking as he opens a model of a vessel on his computer screen. We import the vessel, place the lighting and are able to carry out all the necessary calculations swiftly and easily. I can use the screen to take a walk around the vessel, moving in between pipelines, machines and other equipment to make sure the lighting is correct. Optiwin 3D Pro is available for all our customers. Contact us to find out how this can work for you. It is a proud Hasso Schulz who is responsible for the environmental test centre at aqua signal in Bremen, Germany. He briefly illustrates some test equipment that is employed in many different tests. In the lab, products designed by aqua signal, Glamox, Norselight and Høvik Lys are thoroughly tested and new ideas substantiated, always assisted by high-tech light measurement equipment. The product s range of application is essential to the tests performed as it directly affects the standards applied laterly. On the one hand, these standards cover military or naval requirements and on the other hand civil requirements issued by local authorities as well as advanced requirements for classification authorities in the maritime, offshore or aviation sector, he explains. Amongst many other things, the laboratory in Bremen has four climatic test chambers that can reach temperatures rangeing from -80 up to +180 Celsius and allow relative humidities up to 98%. This ensures product s immunity from extreme cold or heat and from rapid changes in temperature or humidity. Our products abord a ship, offshore and in everyday use may occasionally be exposed to severe stresses and strains. With our testing we tend to gain flawless function and rough durability for our products for the customers to rely on.

And with our shock test equipment we can perform even higher accelerations, up to 300g!, Hasso proudly says. Nowadays, many products consist of plastic materials that need to be tested with respect to long-term UV irradiation to assure their eligibility. Of course, we also check watertightness of a product and subject it to several electrical tests. 4 Supply Vessel without light Supply Vessel after Optiwin 3D calculation with lights and shadow.

6 StatoilHydro A supplier who takes safety seriously Falling objects are one of the largest safety problems we have offshore % of the most serious incidents offshore are related to falling objects, this is a problem we take very seriously. The world s biggest cruise ship with 100,000 light points STX Finland Cruise s shipyard, Turku yard, is currently witnessing the construction of what will be the world s biggest cruise ship, designed to accommodate 8,400 passengers and crew. Photo: Jon Fjeldstad/Fotoarkivet.no Pekka Jussila, Electrical systems purchaser. Photo: Jouni Saaristo The first of the two ships being built for Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. will be delivered in 2009, while the other is due to leave the yard in August STX Finland Cruise is a part of STX Europe, Europe s largest shipyard group with eighteen yards and 21,000 employees. STX Europe is owned by the South Korean STX Corporation. We have worked together with Royal Caribbean Cruises for almost forty years, and we have collaborated on developing and building some of the world s biggest cruise ships, explains Pekka Jussila, who is the electrical systems purchaser in STX Finland Cruise. Building a ship like this is extremely demanding, continues Jussila. We select subcontractors and collaboration partners we can rely on and who deliver equipment precisely when we need it. Glamox and aqua signal have been a major lighting supplier to STX and the cruise ships built there for years especially of technical lighting. Pekka Jussila describes the companies as large and reliable suppliers. We have always had a good dialogue with Glamox and aqua signal, and they have provided good technical support. Wherever there has been a need for special technical solutions onboard, they have quickly adapted their light fittings to meet our particular requirements. HSE Consultant Johan Kolstø at StatoilHydro works with HSE for the group responsible for drilling and oil wells; StatoilHydro have around 40 operational offshore rigs. There is a lot of movement and vibration on the rigs, and suspended equipment can come loose and fall down if it has not been properly secured or produced according to our requirements, he continues. We have worked together with Glamox for many years now, and they are one of those companies who have taken the problem of falling objects seriously, and developed light fittings in accordance with the requirements we expect. With a supplier such as Glamox, we are in dialogue from design to finished product. We secure the requirements for developing a light fitting which will not fall down. The light fittings are suspended heigh over the people working on offshore rigs. This is why we have to set strict requirements on suppliers and their products, concludes Kolstø.
