600 Watt LED High Mast Light | 90,000 Lumens | 5000K | 100-277V or 277-480V

Product Overview

The 600 Watt LED High Mast Light is designed for large-scale exterior area illumination where high mounting heights and broad coverage are required. This fixture delivers 90,000 lumens at 5000K, providing a daylight-white output suitable for demanding outdoor environments. Typical installations include ports, airports, highway interchanges, and large industrial yards where legacy 1500W metal halide systems are being replaced.

The fixture is engineered for pole mounting and supports both 100-277V and 277-480V input ranges. The die-cast aluminum housing, polycarbonate lens, and robust surge protection are built for continuous operation in exposed locations. The design supports high mast layouts with mounting heights commonly ranging from 60 to 120 feet.

Core Performance and Output

This high mast fixture outputs 90,000 lumens at 600 watts, achieving an efficacy of 150 lumens per watt. The standard Type 5 distribution provides uniform, circular coverage for large open areas. Optional optics include 60°, Type 2, Type 3, and Type 4 distributions to address site-specific requirements such as roadway, yard, or perimeter lighting.

Electrical performance includes a power factor above 0.90 and total harmonic distortion below 20%. The fixture is suitable for both 100-277V and 277-480V circuits. At mounting heights below 60 feet, output may be excessive and increase glare. At heights above 120 feet, uniformity and ground-level light levels may decrease depending on spacing and optic selection.

Adjustability and Control Options

The fixture supports 0-10V dimming for integration with lighting control systems or manual dimming where required. A photocell option is available for dusk-to-dawn operation. Optic selection allows for field adaptation to site geometry and lighting needs.

There is no onboard tilt or aiming adjustment; all aiming must be set during installation using the pole mount bracket. Controls and accessories are external and must be specified at the time of installation.

Longevity and Reliability

The fixture is rated for 100,000 hours (L70), supporting long-term deployment in high mast applications with minimal maintenance. The die-cast aluminum housing and polycarbonate lens are designed for impact resistance and environmental durability.

Integrated 10kV surge protection guards against voltage spikes common in outdoor electrical systems. The fixture operates reliably in temperatures from -4°F to 122°F. Routine cleaning of the lens and inspection of electrical connections are recommended for optimal performance over time.

Build Quality and Physical Characteristics

The fixture weighs 57 lbs and is constructed with a die-cast aluminum housing for structural integrity and corrosion resistance. The polycarbonate lens provides IK08 impact protection. The IP66 rating ensures dust-tight and water-resistant performance in exposed outdoor environments.

The EPA rating of 3.87 must be considered when selecting poles for wind load compliance. All hardware is designed for pole mounting and supports secure installation in high wind or coastal environments.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is intended for large-scale exterior sites requiring high-output, uniform illumination from elevated mounting positions. It is suitable for continuous operation in harsh weather and industrial conditions.

• port lighting
• airport lighting
• highway interchange lighting
• large yard lighting
• sports complex lighting
• industrial yard lighting
• rail yard lighting
• freight terminal lighting

Environmental characteristics include resistance to rain, dust, and impact. The fixture is suitable for coastal, industrial, and transportation sites where reliability and high output are required.

Installation and Long-Term Use

Pole mounting is standard, with all necessary hardware included for secure attachment. The fixture?s weight and EPA require compatible pole selection for wind and structural loading. Electrical connections support both low and high voltage systems.

Routine inspection of mounting hardware and electrical connections is recommended, especially in high wind or corrosive environments. The lens and housing are designed for easy cleaning and minimal maintenance. Photocell and dimming controls should be tested periodically to ensure proper operation.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Typical mounting heights range from 60 to 120 feet, depending on site requirements and pole design. Fixtures are spaced to provide uniform coverage, with layout patterns determined by optic selection and site geometry. Type 5 optics are used for open areas, while Type 2, 3, or 4 optics address linear or perimeter lighting needs.

Higher output allows for reduced fixture count but may require careful aiming and optic selection to control glare and light trespass. Spacing and layout should be coordinated with site photometric analysis for optimal results.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

This fixture is UL listed, IP66 rated, and IK08 impact rated. Integrated 10kV surge protection is standard. The housing and lens are designed for safe operation in exposed outdoor environments.

A manufacturer?s warranty is included. Refer to documentation for warranty terms and coverage details.
