ABSTRACT:
The luminaire has a reflector (10) having a light emission window (15), near to first opposed edges (16) of which respective sets of strips (25) are present to create a cut-off angle β. The reflector (10) is closed by a hood (30) which, along first walls (31) thereof close to the first edges (16), have refracting elements (35) to cause the luminaire to emit light at small angles to the light emission window (15), within the cut-off angle β. The luminaire is suitable to be used for under canopy lighting of a petrol station and to signal to the distance that the station is open, without dazzling oncoming drivers. The method involves the use of the luminaire mounted to the ceiling of the canopy.
