Product Overview

The system comprises of a Microprocessor controlled L.E.D illuminated lighting system. Forty LEDS each with three separate illuminated elements are arranged in four blocks. They are sequenced by the microprocessor at approximately Two Hundred times a second. A feedback system is employed to control the light output and to maintain the energy consumption.  The unit is designed to consume a nominal 5, 6, 7 or 8 Watts. As voltage Increases or decreases the mark to space ratio of individual blocks are altered to maintain Light level and Power consumption. This system incorporates an integral ambient electronic light sensor, accurately controlled by the microprocessor which will switch the unit in compliance with switch regime code 808. (35/18 lux) In the off state power consumption drops to zero. No external photo cell required. Power factor .95 or better.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cost Comparisons/Payback

Service life, under normal conditions, should exceed 15 years (131500 hours). 

Maintenance  costs are considerably reduced as little maintenance is required with these units.

Please use the link to the carbon calculator to assess your possible savings & payback time.

 

 Environmental Implication

Due to the fact that the Retro Fit System can consume up to 90% less energy than conventional systems and the need to safely dispose of Fluorescent tubes is not a requirement this therefore impacts significantly on the Environment and lowers the Carbon footprint.

 

 

Illuminated Road Traffic Bollard Extra Low Energy Retrofit System

Service Life

The Retro fit system has been designed not only to significantly reduce power consumption but to provide ultra long life and reliability. All components have been carefully selected to ensure trouble free usage and low maintenance during this period of operation. These units are guaranteed for 10 years. However life expectancy should exceed 15  years. No Electrolytic capacitors are  employed in this design.

 

Ease of Installation

All that is required to upgrade is to remove existing gear tray and to plug in the retrofit unit. The unit will fit onto any shape base tray.

These units can now be supplied with a universal base plate to fit all commonly used housings, at no additional charge.

 

Safety

The incoming supply is protected with a 80ma Automatically re-settable Poly Fuse. This feeds a totally encapsulated Toroidal isolation step-down transformer (12 V RMS).
