Tried and Tested Safety
The high installation and application standard of our WILA luminaires is achieved by means of standardised test procedures. Our products offer protection against electric shocks, fire caused by luminaires, luminaire failure, loss of lamps and luminaires and health risks caused by lamps and luminaires. For particular applications, they also offer protection against mechanical damage to lamps and luminaries, as well as against the ingress of foreign bodies and moisture.

Photometric Measurements
At WILA, luminous intensity distribution curves and light output ratios of luminaires are calculated using a graduated circle goniophotometer developed by the company itself (patent pending). To measure narrow-beam or large luminaires, WILA uses a special luminaire rotator. All of the photometric measurements are based on precisely standardised light sources which, at WILA, are placed in an Ulbricht sphere and constantly monitored.

EMC Measurements
All WILA luminaires carry the CE symbol and guarantee electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). This is guaranteed in collaboration with testing institutes in accordance with standardised measurements.

Climatic Measurements
In order to optimise air-handling and noise levels, all climatic luminaires are carefully measured in a test chamber specially developed in co-operation with the Institut für Entsorgung und Umwelttechnik GmbH (Institute for Waste Management and Environmental Technology), an institute based at the Märkische Fachhochschule.

The ENEC-VDE Approval Sign
The ENEC symbol is a new European approval sign for luminaires. It is based on the harmonised European standard, DIN EN 60598 (DIN VDE 0711) and can currently be awarded by 22 European testing institutes. In Germany, the VDE testing and certifying institute (VDE-PZI) awards the ENEC symbol combined with the VDE symbol. Consumers of goods marked with the ENEC-VDE approval sign and the F sign can be certain that

• The luminaires are state-of-the-art
• The luminaires comply with all of the requirements of the European testing institutes and can be used throughout the European market
• The luminaires on sale are monitored
• The fire protection regulations are observed • The industrial safety and accident prevention regulations are adhered to
• The manufacturer has a quality management system certified to at least ISO 9002 standard that guarantees constant quality

• Unannounced plant
inspections are carried out
by the testing institutes twice
a year
• The following standards and regulations are observed:

F-fire protection regulation in accordance with the French glow-wire test up to 960 °C, IP 23 as standard, IP 44 optional with DIN VDE 0711 safety screen, temperature-rise test, as well as electromagnetic compatibility as per EN 55015, EN 61547 and EN 61000-3-2

Conformity Confirmed
Products must be labelled with the CE symbol in order to be sold within the European Community. By providing this labelling, manufacturers and importers usually confirm of their own accord that their products adhere to the basic requirements" in special European directives and to the safety objectives pursued in those directives.

Quality Management
WILA has set itself the objective of meeting market requirements by means of innovative products and competent services. This is based on a high quality claim, which is firmly anchored in the quality policy of the corporate strategy. Certification to DIN ISO 9001, as awarded by Det Norske Veritas certifying bodies, testifies to the fact that the quality system ensures that all elements meet the required quality standard.
