PSL system—light trespass shield

PSL system—Glare Guard

GLARE GUARD

Glare guards provide increased

visibility for the driver. Excessive

direct glare, a function of lamp

wattage, fixture placement and

distribution, can cause discomfort

and disability glare, a dangerous

distraction for drivers and

pedestrians. PSL glare guards

diminish this distraction for drivers,

increasing their visual comfort and

visibility.

Field-installable internal glare guards

redirect a 60º horizontal segment of

light emitted towards the driver into

the pedestrian walkways and driving

stalls. These specular, faceted inserts

redirect light around the lamp to

minimize the arc tube voltage rise

through the upper prism structures

and the lower concave prism profile.

They clip into preset labeled

locations and lock into place without

tools, yet cannot be removed during

normal maintenance. They are ideal

accessories for providing an

optimized driving environment.

LIGHT TRESPASS SHIELD

Light trespass shield cuts off any

illumination towards the exterior of

the parking garage. Designed into 90º

horizontal quadrants, they are field

installable and remain in place during

maintenance. These louvers are

designed to cutoff the vertical angles

of light above 57º and can be used

in combination with glare guards and

in any position depending on a fixture’s

orientation.

Glare guards are ideal for single- and double-row installations. The 60º segments lock into preset locations without tools and
can be installed at any time. The light is redirected into the walkways and stalls. Glare guards may even be installed in pairs
for two-way traffic areas for complete driver light control.

Single-Row Configuration

Double-Row Configuration

Light Trespass Shields (LTS) are designed to provide 57º cutoff, the angle found in the double-row system between the fixture
and the edge of the parking deck. Older garages may not have the 42" stall wall found in newer garages.
