VTC/VTP



 


 


Description

The VTC and VTP luminaires (Sealsafe® IP 66), designed to incorporate low-pressure sodium lamps, consist of a painted, die cast aluminium alloy body and an optical compartment.
The optical compartment consists of an extruded aluminium reflector, painted white, and an acrylic prismatic refractor.
The optical compartment is sealed at the ends by two die cast aluminium covers. One of the two covers is fitted with a lampholder support plug. The body houses the control gear mounted onto a removable plate.
The VTC luminaire is designed for mounting on a Ø 60 mm bracket arm.
The VTP luminaire is mounted on an extruded aluminium beam, closed at the ends by removable aluminium covers.
Polyester powder coating.

VTP: The beam for 1 to 4 luminaires is mounted on a column fitted with a plate. Since the optical compartments are removable, the beam is installed first, allowing easier mounting.



Photometry

The VTC and VTP luminaires have been designed to optimise luminance performance on different types of road surfaces.
The lamp position - for a concrete or asphalt surface - can be adjusted by pivoting the plug 90° (a polarising slot is provided).
Pivoting the plug 90° positions the lamp to suit either a concrete or an asphalt road surface.
