junior amberline lantern

For Group 'B' lighting; the unit which conforms to BS 1788 comprises a single piece Silicon Aluminium top casting with end hinged 'Perspex' refractor bowl.

The canopy casting exterior is painted aluminium with interior painted white for increased performance. Refractor pates are sealed to the inside of the perspex enclosing bowl which seats evenly on a gasket to ensure a weatherproof joint. A retaining clip secures the bowl at the bracket end of the lantern.

The top casting which includes Terminal Block, Earth Terminal and Cable Calmp also carries the lamp support channel assembly on which is mounted the Thermal Relay plus Bi-Pin lampholders. A refractable type lampholder is located at the roadway end of the lantern with a fixed type lampholder at the bracket end.

The unit is suitable for 1" BSP plain, 3¾" long Side Entry and is designed for mounting at 5o above the horizontal to improve light distribution across the roadway. Bracket retaining 'Allen' screws are located within the housing to prevent corrosion and to aid appearance.

Product No. 51/82206

Light Distribtion data are only given for the guidance of the Lighting Engineer and represent the results of laboratory tests on a typical lantern taken from stock. The data are based on the lamp characteristics stated; if the latest lamp efficiency is different, the candela or lumen values should be calculated in direct propotion to the relative lamp lumens.
