Product Overview
This 30 watt LED decorative post top light provides 3610 lumens for post top lighting, pedestrian area lighting, decorative site lighting, and campus lighting. It mounts to a 3 inch pole and uses a Type 5 distribution for area coverage around the pole.
Selectable 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K color temperature settings allow the fixture appearance to be set during installation. This fixture replaces 100 watt metal halide post top fixtures where existing poles use a compatible 3 inch mounting arrangement.
Core Performance and Output
The fixture operates at 30 watts and produces 3610 lumens, reaching 120 lumens per watt. Its Type 5 distribution directs light outward in a broad circular pattern, while frosted tempered glass softens the emitted light.
Input voltage is 100-277V at 50/60Hz. Power factor exceeds 0.90 and total harmonic distortion is below 20 percent. The 3610 lumen output is intended for lower-scale pole-mounted layouts and can be excessive where close pole spacing already creates high light levels.
Adjustability and Control Options
Color temperature is adjustable between 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K. This allows a single fixture configuration to match the intended visual appearance of the site.
1-10V dimming is supported. The fixture is available with no photocell or with a photocell. Photocell selection should align with the required operating schedule and control approach.
Longevity and Reliability
The LED system is rated for 50,000 L70 hours. L70 indicates the point at which the LED output is maintained at 70 percent of initial light output.
A five year warranty is included. Long-term performance also depends on proper pole mounting, electrical connections, and maintaining the fixture enclosure.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The housing is die-cast aluminum with a black finish. Frosted tempered glass protects the optical system.
The fixture measures 11.9 by 11.9 by 26 inches and mounts on a 3 inch pole. Its EPA rating is 1.2, which must be considered with the pole and site wind-load requirements.
Where This Product Fits Best
This post top fixture fits pedestrian-scale and decorative pole lighting layouts where a Type 5 distribution and 3610 lumen output match the area being illuminated.
- post top lighting
- pedestrian area lighting
- decorative site lighting
- campus lighting
- park lighting
- courtyard lighting
- pathway lighting
Its IP65 rating supports outdoor exposure. The 3 inch pole mount and EPA 1.2 rating require confirmation against the installed pole structure and local wind conditions.
Installation and Long-Term Use
The fixture installs on a 3 inch pole. Confirm pole-top dimensions, structural capacity, EPA allowance, supply voltage, and control wiring before installation.
Set the color temperature before final commissioning and verify photocell orientation when that option is used. Maintain the lens and exterior surfaces so dirt accumulation does not reduce delivered light.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In post top lighting, pedestrian area lighting, and pathway lighting, fixtures are arranged along the pole layout to provide overlapping Type 5 distributions. Mounting height and pole spacing are determined by the existing pole layout, target light levels, and required uniformity.
For campus lighting, park lighting, and courtyard lighting, the color setting is selected to match the surrounding decorative site lighting. Wider pole spacing reduces fixture count but can reduce uniformity between poles.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This fixture is ETL certified and rebate eligible. It is IP65 rated.
The fixture includes a five year warranty. Installation must use a pole and mounting arrangement that supports the fixture EPA rating of 1.2.

Q: What color temperatures can be selected?
A: The fixture has adjustable 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K color temperature settings.
Q: What pole size is required for mounting?
A: The fixture is designed for a 3 inch pole mount.
Q: How should fixture layout be planned for pedestrian area lighting?
A: Layout planning should account for mounting height, pole spacing, target light levels, and the Type 5 distribution. The supplied product data does not establish a specific spacing value or fixture count.
Application Questions and Clarification
Q: Is this fixture appropriate for pathway lighting and courtyard lighting?
A: Pathway lighting and courtyard lighting are valid applications for this pole top fixture. Final fit depends on the installed pole layout, required light levels, and site conditions.
Q: What should be checked before installing this fixture on an existing pole?
A: Confirm the 3 inch pole mount, the pole structural capacity, the EPA rating of 1.2, the available 100-277V supply voltage, and the selected control configuration.
Q: Can the fixture use a photocell for campus lighting?
A: The fixture is available with an optional photocell. Campus lighting is a valid application, and photocell selection should match the required control arrangement.
