B-Series Linear & 2D Batwing Diffusers

BrightView's BrightWing™ diffusers provide an efficient “batwing” distribution to help luminaires achieve a flatfield beam profile, uniformly illuminating a floor or work surface without a central hot-spot. They work equally well with LED and fluorescent sources.

Linear Batwing now available in continuous sheets, up to 28 inches wide and 500 ft in length.

Usage Notes

  • B-Lxxx have two different sides. Light should enter the more specularly reflective (glossy) side – please see the BrightView Application Note on Batwing Diffusers for details.
  • BrightView B-series diffusers help sculpt light into an efficient linear “batwing” distribution.
  • Light distributions are determined by the light source, cavity geometry, and choice of diffuser, and may vary significantly depending on the specific luminaire design.
  • BrightView applications engineers can help optimize designs to achieve desired performance.
  • Other angles and degrees of nadir suppression are available on a custom basis.
  • BrightView applications engineers can assist with product choices and help your design achieve peak performance.

1Angles data are typical; they vary greatly depending on luminaire design.

Batwing Comparison Output

By making a special micro lens array on the surface of the film, these diffusers provide an efficient 2D Batwing distribution to help luminaires achieve a flat-field beam profile, uniformly illuminating a floor or work surface without a central hot spot.

Advantages
• Excellent lamp hiding
• Homogeneous light on the table
• No color shifts
• Great for both direct and indirect lighting
