WEMBLEY LANTERNS
(MADE IN ENGLAND)



F 5451/7

F 5441/7


The series of "Wembley" lanterns has been evolved as the result of many years of experience and research work. They incorporate a number of special features for ease of maintenance and maximum efficiency. The refractors are designed to give the maximum light output and ideal candle power distribution.

Types F 5451/7 are totally enclosed and therefore dustproof. An occasional wiping of the outer globe is all that is generally necessary to maintain maximum illumination. The interior will only need attention in this respect at the end of long periods and this can be done when it is necessary for the lanterns to be opened for lamp renewal purposes.

Types F 5441/7 are supplied without the outer enclosing globe, and are therefore more inexpensive models.

The "Wembley" lanterns shown above are designed to accomodate three types of G.E.C. English-made refractors, each giving a different light distribution. A plan of the typical light distribution is given below.



G 501
Symmetric. Peak at 70°.

G 507
Non-axial asymmetric. Peak at 75°.

G 513
Axial asymmetric. Peak at 75°.

lantern given by the new G.E.C. English-made refractors, giving approximate candle power
in peak directions at the angles from the lower vertical shown.


F 5451/7

SPECIFICATION
Heavy gauge copper body. Improved focussing device. Accessible and rapid rotatable refractor plate for lining up with the roadway without disturbing the joint between the bracket and lantern, and ensuring positive location of any of the three types of refractor. Refractor secured by cadmium-plated supports and phosphor-bronze springs. G.E.C. English-made prismatic glass refractor, giving maximum light output. Hinged steel outer reflector, vitreous enamelled for easy cleaning. Non-ventilated outer globe of English clear heat-resisting glass. Porcelain lampholder.
