arp street lighting lantern
The Crompton ARP Street Lighting Lantern is designed to conform with BS/ARP 37. For wartime use. Fitting has been
produced after considerable experiment, and scientifically designed not only to ensure that light output complies with
the Specification, but to provide simplicity of installation and ease of maintenane. Of robust construction, its fitted
with a die-cast cap tapped ¾" conduit, the reflector and body beening 22 gauge sheet metal, which is finished outside
in black enamel, and the interior in white enamel, the reflector being battleship grey. Access for relamping is by means
of the top flange, which is held in position by two thumb screws and a bayonet catch, and lamp replacement is an
extremely simple operation. When the lantern is to be used at a mounting height of 10' it employs a 15W pearl lamp,
while 24W and 40W pearl lamps are used in the 15' and 20' mounting height lanterns. The bare lamp is not visible from
any angle. A range of GES, ES and BC adaptors is available for connection to existing lampholders.

star I
Refractor: Holophane 4116, 2/4116, 22/4116.
For Group B roads. Believed to be the ELECO Welwyn made under license with slight cosmetic changes.
Single piece dome refractor lantern. Includes automatic focusing of lamp and
registration of the refractor, quick release clips for the removal of the
refractor and a single piece refractor available in three distributions.
The Star I has a diameter of 10" and is intended for smaller wattage
GLS, MB/U and MBF/U lamps. There are only three main parts: body casting,
lampholder bridge assembly and refractor. The body casting (silicon
aumninium alloy LM6M) is provided internally
with three sets of tapped bosses for the fixing of the lampholder bridge
assembly. The bridge assembly is a simple bridge piece (mild steel
cadmium plated) carrying the lampholder
with bayonet slots to engage fixing screws in the bosses. The bayonet
slots allow the bridge to be changed from one set of bosses to another
or to be removed for wiring without the complete withdrawal of fixing screws.
The body also has two totally enclosed enclosed spring loaded clips
(mild steel cadmium plated)
for the
retention of the refractor. The refractor is of the single piece dome type
with prisms moulded on both the external and internal surfaces. A projection
on the neck of the refractor engates with a recess in the body casting and
ensures correct angular location. Exterior finish is aluminium, interior finish
and underside of reflector is white.
