The'MAS'(Museum aan de Stroom)in Antwerp,Belgium has installed 1,000 Philips Fortimo LED SLM modules 2000lm 33W/830.
The installation makes the museum the first museum in the Benelux to illuminate all its art using LEDs.
The project came to fruition after collaborations between Lichtvormgevers,Philips Lighting,the city of Antwerp,B-architecten and Meyvaert Glass Engineering,the main contractor.
According to Philips,a conscious decision was made to equip the MAS entirely with LED lighting so as to illuminate to best effect the experience aspect of all the works of art.The decision was also made to meet present and future criteria for sustainability and energy savings.
According to Philips,the module has particularly high colour rendering and a colour temperature of 3000 K.It also has a higher light output than a 100W halogen light source.The module is also dimmable.
