GENERAL
Manufactured in an ISO9001:2000 'Quality Assured' facility.
Operating voltage is 12 v. DC.
Operating temperature -40 deg. F ~ 125 deg. F.
Special control system to prevent over-charging and over-discharging.
Generally, approximately 5 hours of strong direct sunshine will enable a full charge.
Illumination time is up to 12 hours or more, generally dusk to dawn.
Typically dusk to dawn illumination, subject to geographic location.
Up to 3 successive cloudy or alternating overcast days typically will generally not affect illumination time, subject to geographic location.
A photocell (light sensor) controls automatic on and off illumination, when required.
Polished stainless steel material and construction.
BATTERY CAPACITY
One 12 v. DC sealed lead acid or GEL type batteries
Battery capacity is subject to the specification of the system.
Battery capacity is typically 60, 65 or 70 Amp/Hr.
Battery type is rechargeable, maintenance free, sealed lead acid or GEL type.
Battery dimensions vary subject to battery capacity.
Battery weight will vary subject to battery capacity.
Typical battery life is approximately 3-4 years subject to environmental factors.
Over charge and over discharge protection system.
The battery voltage maintained at or below 14.2 v. DC maximum and at or above 11 v. DC.
Battery charge voltage is programmed to 16.9 v. DC.
SOLAR PANEL
Highly efficient polycrystalline solar panel made by Sharp, in Japan.
UL Listed & IEC approved.
Stainless steel frame with anti-aging and encapsulated.
The solar panel is built into the top of the lamp head unit.
Low reflecting tempered glass.
Solar panel is 50 Watts.
Solar panel typical voltage is 17v DC at 2.9A.
Typical solar panel life is approximately 15-20 years subject to environmental factors.
Due to the horizontal orientation of the solar panel, and its wattage, a good to high level of insolation would be required for optimum performance.
LAMP UNIT (LIGHT HEAD)
Fitted with 336 LED's.
All LED's are white. Amber or white/amber or other LED color temperatures possible, via special order only and at extra cost.
Each LED has a light output of greater than 8000 mcd and approx. 6 Lux (Lumens per square metre).
Each LED is rated at 3v / 15mA.
The 320 LED lamp provides approx. 2016 Lux (Lumens per square metre) or approx. 160 Candela.
Using a 13' (4 metre) pole, average light pattern will provide approximately 30 Lux (Lumens per square metre) or 2.7 fc/ftc.
Approximately 7-13 Lux is achieved at about 13' (4 Metres) away, e.g. at the ground within the general illumination area.
High/Low illumination switch (set to High for maximum output or Low for 50% reduced output).
Polarity protected circuitry.
Power consumption at 12v DC is 1.5A / 18 Watts.
LED life is typically 100,000 hours or equal to about 22 years.
No bulb changes unlike other street lights.
Removable LED circuit board with easy plug-in connections.
Integral battery box containing a 12v sealed lead acid Gel type, maintenance free, rechargeable battery.
Stainless steel construction.
Natural stainless steel finish.
Custom colors by special order only.
POST / POLE
Stainless steel pole with base unit to enable secure installation.
Fixing bolts are included.
Two templates for setting the fixing bolts into new, wet concrete are included.
The templates for aligning the anchors are approx. 12.5" x 12.5" (320mm x 320mm).
The bolt pattern (diagonal distance from one hole center to another) is approx. 12.75" (323mm).
The 4 pre-drilled holes on each template are approx. 3/4" (20mm) diameter.
Typically at least 1 cubic yard of concrete is required (3' x 3' x 3').
Pole height is 13' (4 metres).
Custom height pole by special order only.
Natural stainless steel finish.
Custom colors by special order only.
Typically the pole requires a concrete foundation of approximately 1 cubic yard (3' x 3' x 3'). The location, wind factor and ground condition will affect the size of the foundation required.
Installation instructions are supplied.
PHOTOMETRICS
336 LED lamp at 13' (4 Metres)
2016 Lumens at source, approximately.
Approximate Lux distribution:
At the base of the 13' (4 Metre) pole, 1 metre forward = 55 Lux.
2 metres forward =49 Lux, 3 metres forward =32 Lux, 4 metres forward =19 Lux, 5 metres forward =13 Lux, 6 metres forward =9 Lux, 7 metres forward =4 Lux.
At the base of the 13' (4 Metre) pole, 1 metre to the left or 1 metre to the right = 50 Lux.
2 metres left/right =28 Lux, 3 metres left/right =12 Lux, 4 metres left/right =7 Lux, 5 metres left/right =4 Lux, 6 metres left/right =3 Lux, 7 metres left/right =2 Lux.
ILLUMINATION PATTERN (LUX DISTRIBUTION)
55 Lux (Lumens per square metre) at the base of pole.
One square metre is approximately 3' 3" x 3' 3" or approximately 1521 square inches of area.
For every 1 metre (3' 3") the Lux is 49, 32, 19, 13, 9 & 4 respectively.
At approximately 7 metres (23'), central to the pole, there is 4 Lux at the ground.
For every 1 metre (3' 3") the Lux is 50, 28, 12, 7, 4, 3 & 2 respectively, to the immediate left and immediate right side of the pole.
At approximately 7 metres (23'), to the direct left and direct right side of the pole, there is 2 Lux at the ground.
INTERCONNECTING CABLING
Connection wiring between the battery box, solar panel and lamp unit is included.

NOTES
Time length of night time illumination is estimated and subject to various factors including geographic location, seasons, weather conditions & location of product etc.
Shorter illumination time due to one or more of the above factors does not define the fixture as being defective or define the fixture as being advertised incorrectly.
We advertise and supply our solar lights to customers all over the world are therefore, naturally, we are unable to guarantee the nightly illumination time as it can vary and any time stated is quoted as 'up to' x amount hours.
Minor errors & omissions must be accepted.
Although unlikely, we reserve the right to supply this product with any minor alterations or minor changes to the specifications (shown above by text description or by photographs) due to different supplies or product batches received, incorporating such product changes made by the manufacturer, without further notice.
Descriptions, specifications and photographs are updated regularly but may not be current when minor changes to a product have only recently been made.
All solar lights must be used in a completely dark location at night time otherwise they may not illuminate. Nearby strong lighting sources or ambient lighting may affect the operation of a solar light. This does not define the fixture as being defective.
Descriptions, specifications and photographs are updated regularly but may not be current when minor changes to a product have only recently been made.
