Duvon™ supplied controlled-glare hockey rink LED engineered to keep the brightest hot spot off the centre face-off circle, with 70 CRI for clean puck-against-ice contrast.
Ice-rink lighting has the distinctive challenge of a highly reflective playing surface: poorly designed lighting bounces glare back into the player's eyes off the ice itself, and the puck visually disappears against a hot reflection. Tracking the puck under bright surface reflections is the central problem.
Duvon's specification used TitanBay Series 150W heads with a controlled-glare distribution, mounted on the existing ceiling truss and aimed to keep the brightest hot spot off the centre face-off circlee. The 70 CRI optic and 5000K spectrum enhanced puck-against-ice contrast through the full play surface.
The completed installation supports full league play and television-friendly capture, with a 1.2:1 surface uniformity, < 0.10 flicker, and a full-replacement programme that retired the original metal-halide system in a single off-season.
