Lamps, mirrors, reflectives for night.
Solar and mains warning lamps announce that an obstacle is still there in the dark. They mount on barriers, barricades and closed lanes.
The solar type runs without pulling a cable, the mains type suits fixed points with permanent supply. Steady or flashing operation is chosen according to the job.
Technical data and dimensions →This family is the part of the catalogue that has to work in the dark. The products fall into two groups: those that make their own light and those that return the headlamp beam.
The choice starts with the lighting situation. Where mains power exists a mains-fed answer is cheaper. Where it does not, the solar type removes the cost of running a cable altogether.
A retroreflective face is a class rather than a product. Two faces of the same colour can sit in different classes.
The class directly sets the reading distance, so a specification names the class rather than the colour.
The solar lamp makes its own light; the reflective faces on the rest of the catalogue return the headlamp beam.
The two are planned together: the lamp marks the single hazard, the reflective line draws the route.
When asking for a quotation, state the viewing distance, the lighting situation and how long it will be used. Buying a permanent answer for a temporary job is the commonest overspend in this family.
In this family maintenance is visibility itself. A dirty solar panel does not charge and a dirty reflective face returns no light. Both look sound and neither works.
The inspection is made in the dark. In daylight you cannot tell whether the lamp lights or the reflective face is bright. This family is therefore checked at night from a moving vehicle.
In this family temporary and permanent answers are not mixed. A permanent installation for a week of work is as wrong as a portable lamp for a point that will stand for three years.
Products in this family work with the rest of the catalogue. The lamp marks the single hazard; the reflective faces of posts, cones and barriers draw the line.
Few visibility problems are solved by one product alone.
Orders in this family are planned by season. Lamps bought before winter are on site through the months when darkness comes early. An order placed in spring wastes a season.
Quantity, destination country and your specification if you have one. A technical answer on your enquiry comes back the same day; pricing is prepared by a person, never auto-generated.
