"4.1 Aufstellort
"Die Aufstellbedingungen am Aufstellort müssen den allgemeinen Bedingungen nach EN 441-11 entsprechen, d.h. Vermeidung von Zugluft, keine unnötige Strahlungswärme von ***Beleuchtungsmitteln***, Backöfen, Heizungen, Sonneneinstrahlung, etc."
Talking about the installation of refrigeration devices in food counters. For some reason that altogether escapes me, the dictionaries don't seem to recognise the existence of "Beleuchtungsmittel". I feel sure there is a simple solution, but it just escapes me. Let's get this baby in the ProZ glossary! TIA for your help.

I don\'t think this sounds silly because the focus is on heat, not light. Actually, \"keep away from light sources, direct sun and welding torches\" emphasizes this aspect.

Comment: "This answer has the most peer support, and light sources does fit pretty well here, so it's the points to Klaus. Trudy and Sven's suggestion was a good thought for getting around the fact that sunlight is also a light source, yet mentioned separately. Lighting struck me as being quite reasonable also, though. Anyway, thanks once again to you all for your assistance - much appreciated."
