ABSTRACT:
A luminaire includes a frame member, an inner panel, light emitting diodes (LEDs), an information carrier, and two outer panels. The inner panel has two surfaces and edges that join the two surfaces such that the inner panel is able to reflect light substantially perpendicularly to its two surfaces. The LEDs are arranged along at least one edge of the inner panel and are detachably attached to the frame member. The information carrier is associated with at least one surface of the inner panel. The two outer panels are associated with the two surfaces of the inner panel. To protect the luminaire against environmental influences and at the same time to maintain the optical appearance of the luminaire, the inner panel and the two outer panels are held by the frame member for water-tight encapsulation.
