Several of our products have the ball test approval in accordance with the German DIN 57710-13 regulation. This standard is concerned with the impact resistance of luminaires for indoor sports facilities. It requires that a luminaire struck by a ball must withstand any damage that could cause luminaire parts to fall to the ground.
To pass the standard test, a luminaire needs to withstand 36 shots from three directions. The maximum impact velocity is 60 km/hour and the ball is a calibrated hand ball. The product must be functioning after the test without any loose or broken parts falling down, and without change in IP rating.
