HERNANDEZ - FERNANDEZ

Description

CURVES AND LIGHT Designed by Jordi Henrich and Olga Tarrasó further to the redevelopment of public lighting in the city of Barcelona, the Hernandez/Fernandez ensembles have been developed based on an optical compartment that conducts light. Different models of lighting columns - made of Corten steel - are available. The height and inclination of the model selected will vary depending on the site to be illuminated (pedestrian zone, intersection, etc.). The design of the lighting column and the principle of light conduction are the factors that confer on the ensemble a remarkable harmony of shapes and light effects. The Hernandez model is based on a light-conducting optical compartment 3.90 metres in length with an inclination of 20°. There is also a Hernandez Mini with the same length but with an inclination of 25°. The Fernandez model is based on an optical compartment of 3.90 metres with an inclination of 50°. Also available in the Fernandez Mini version (length 2.50 m) with an inclination of 15°. Finish: Corten steel Hot galvanised steel finish on request

DISTRIBUTES AND CONDUCTS LIGHT The principle of the optical compartment is founded on the conduction of light by means of an easily accessible single source. The luminous flux is directed by a reflector all the way along the box, which is called the light distributor, before traversing the prisms of the refractor in the direction of the zone to be illuminated. This principle of lighting is characterised by a beautiful uniformity of light over the entire surface of the refractor and by true visual comfort.

Materials
		RECESSED LUMINAIRE The luminaire recessed in the inclined part of the lighting column is made up of two elements: on one hand, a box containing the reflector, the lamp and the control gear, and on the other hand, the light-conducting element composed of an aluminium box and a refractor. The whole unit is closed off by means of a glass protector.

Characteristics

Maintenance
		The lamp and the control gear are easily accessible from one end of the luminaire. This position allows the operator not to disrupt the flow of traffic during maintenance activities. For the electrical connection and changing the lamp, it is sufficient to open the box giving access to the lamp-support plug and the control gear plate.

Installation

MOUNTING BASE Other mounting configurations on request

Photometry
		Conducted all the way along the box, the luminous flux then traverses the refractor prisms and is directed towards the zone to be illuminated

Reflector 1554

Options
		ADDITIONAL OPTICAL COMPARTMENT As an option, for the four models of ensembles, an additional Sealsafe® (IP 66) optical compartment may be installed in the base of the inclined part. This functionality may be justified by the need for additional luminous flux on the road surface.
