The lighting of printing plants / information compiled by Bell. . he smaller varieties of type are used. Good lighting hereis an especial asset, for errors will be eliminated, decreasing thenecessity for changes in the proof, a costly and delaying process. As racks are usually symmetrically spaced, an even distributionof illumination will be provided even though the localized generallighting scheme is followed. In the plan of a composing room(Fig. 3) two units, RLM Standard Dome Reflectors with 100-watt y 12 THE LIGHTIXG OF PRIXTIXG PLANTS bowl enameled Mazda C lamps, hung at approximately 8 feet fromthe top of the frames, are used to light each rack. Such an instal-lation will produce an intensity of approximately 12 foot-candles. In the particular case shown and in the night views in Figs. 1and 2, practically the entire room is devoted to composing framesand larger lamps on wider spaces might be employed, providing theceiling was of sufficient height, say 15 feet, to allow for a spread oflight. However, in most composing rooms, particularly In the. F\g. 8, General Illumination is Provided in This Pn>> Kouin ]>y 300-\\att Mazda C Lamps in Diffusing Opalescent Glass Enclosing Fixtures. These are 16 feet above the Hour on centers. The white tile side walls and the white ceiling make possible a high intensity of illumination throughout the room, and .such a remarkable degree of diffusion that the necessity for local or trouble lamps in adjusting or repairing the press is minimiz[ THE LIGHTING OF PRIXTIXG PLANTS 13 Standard Dome Reflector) is recommende
