2. How to us it? Th Koldo Affinium postrbox 300 has bn dvlopd to allow uniform illumination of communication mssags in rctangular box signs (Rfr to chaptr 5).This uniformity is cratd nsuring thr is sufficint intrnal rflction. It is thrfor important that th intrior of th box sign is matt whit.th insid of th box sign can b sprayd matt whit or lind with matt whit film. Avoid using constructions in th cntr of h box sign.this can crat shadows on th communication mssag. It is also advisabl to mak sur thr ar no glossy surfacs in th box sign bcaus ths can caus unwantd irrgularitis in th communication mssag. Optimal uniformity is rachd whn th is placd on a flat surfac. 2.1 Dimnsions (mm) EOC A1 A2 1 C1 # ld s 8727900 858075 00 323 313 33 19.5 3 8727900 858105 00 563 553 33 19.5 5 A2 A1 C1 1 A2 A1 C1 1 Dimnsional drawing

Start dsigning on th basis of th dimnsions of th box sign to b usd. 5. Dpnding th dpth of th box sign, adapt th front covr you us: For singl sidd boxs: - dpth ovr 7 cm, front covr with maximum 48% transmission valu - dpth btwn 5-7 cm, front covr with maximum 30% transmission valu For doubl sidd boxs: - dpth ovr 10 cm, front covr with maximum 48% transmission valu - dpth btwn 7.5-10 cm, front covr with maximum 30% transmission valu 6. Divid th numbr of s btwn th numbr of sids of th box sign to b usd. 7. Sprad th installd load vnly btwn th two or four sids of th box sign. 8. Dtrmin th capacity of th sum of th s and dtrmin th right powr supply or powr supply combination for this. 9. Rcommndd maximum distanc btwn two s: 11 cm. 11 cm 10. Rcommndd maximum distanc from a to th sid of th box sign: 30 cm 30 cm 11. Th sum of th lngths of th s to b usd in th dsign must not xcd th width of th sid. 12.

If th lighting lvl is high nough, it crats a vry uniform lighting of th communication mssag in th box sign.

In many cass this also incrass th contrast. Th following two tabls show th various valus for diffrnt sizd box signs with dimnsions of btwn 0.3 and 5 m². Hr a distinction is mad btwn singlsidd and doubl-sidd communication mssags. For singl-sidd mssags, lss light is rquird in th box sign to achiv th sam lvl of illumination. In th tabls blow w giv an indication of th luminanc that can b xpctd for th givn combination of dimnsions and quantity of s (th numbr of s pr typ of ), and a possibl solution with th postrbox.
