G.E.C. "Di-Fuser" Street Lighting Lantern

Totally enclosed dustproof lantern specially designed for use with 250 and 400-watt OSIRA lamps. The body is of spun copper of a symmetrical dome appearance. A vitreous enamelled steel inner reflector secures the Z 6468 stepped white opal globe. The diffuser bowl is of high quality low absorption flashed white opal glass. It is both pleasing in appearance and optically efficient, the whole bowl appearing equally bright and producing a highly diffused light. The bowl when used with a Z 7467 felt ring is a completely dustproof outer globe. It is secured by a vitreous enamelled steel outer reflector which is held by spring fasteners. The possibility of lamp failure due to water drip or condensation is eliminated by the patented G.E.C. top connecting box which is wired with heat-resisting leads to the G.E.S. porcelain lampholder, which can be used in either of two positions so that the lantern is suitable for both 250 and 400-watt OSIRA lamps.

The external finish of the lantern is aluminium colour with all reflecting surfaces heavily vitreous enamelled.
