| Overall length of the bridge: | 31.3 m |
| Usable bridge width: | 3.0 m |
| Weight approx. | 23 tonnes |
| Load-bearing system: | Arch construction with suspended steel deck |
| Mid-February 2008: | Municipal council approves project "Brücke für Fussgänger und Radfahrer über die Weiacherstrasse" (bridge for pedestrians and cyclists across the Weiacherstrasse) |
| Engineers office: | Wüst Bauingenieure AG, Regensdorf |
| Electrical planning: | EKZ Pfungen |
| Builder: | Gemeinde Pfungen (Municipality of Pfungen) |
| Special luminaires: | LIG AG (Lighting Innovation Group AG) |
| Total power consumption including LEDs: | <75W |
| Project implementation: | 2009 |
Key factors in the handrail illumination for the Pfungen pedestrian bridge were the power consumption and a simple installation concept since the handrail construction had already defined. A single supply point and electronic control gear for each side made the electrical installation simple and cost-effective.
This was made possible by using of the 30 high-efficiency luminaires with high IP protection; their especially molded casting makes them consume only 1W/m installed capacity (total power consumption for the bridge <75W).
LED hand rail system LONGLINE / LONGLINE ASYM
The IP67-shielded luminaire system with linear, asymmetrical or symmetrical optical system through state-of-the-art Clear Casting
technology ensures high efficiency and a long life along with minimal power consumption.
Osram LED components were used in this project.
