Product Overview
This 70-watt LED cobra head street light produces 12,000 lumens for pole-mounted street lighting, roadway lighting, and municipal lighting. It uses a Type 3 distribution as standard and operates on 100V-277V power.
The fixture is a 150-watt metal halide replacement with 1-10V dimming, selectable 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K color temperature, and an optional photocell. Its pole-mounted configuration supports roadway and neighborhood lighting layouts where directional distribution is required.
Core Performance and Output
The fixture delivers 12,000 lumens at 70 watts, producing 171 lumens per watt. A CRI of 70+ supports standard exterior visibility requirements.
Type 3 optics are standard. Type 2, Type 4, and Type 5 distributions are available options for projects requiring a different light pattern.
The driver operates from 100V-277V at 50/60Hz and supports 1-10V dimming. Distribution selection should match roadway geometry and pole placement; the standard Type 3 optic is directional rather than a full-area Type 5 pattern.
Adjustability and Control Options
Color temperature is available in 3000K, 4000K, or 5000K. This allows color appearance to remain consistent with the surrounding street lighting, roadway lighting, or municipal lighting installation.
1-10V dimming is included. An optional photocell is available for dusk-to-dawn operation.
Longevity and Reliability
The LED system is rated for 131,000 L70 hours. L70 indicates the point at which the LED output is projected to reach 70 percent of its initial lumen output.
Integrated surge protection is rated at 5kV line-to-line and 10kV line-to-earth. This protection supports installations exposed to electrical surge conditions on exterior lighting circuits.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The housing is aluminum alloy with a black finish. The fixture measures 21 x 10 x 6.1 inches and weighs 12.5 pounds.
Tempered glass and a polycarbonate lens protect the optical system. The fixture is rated IP66 and IK09.
Where This Product Fits Best
This cobra head fixture fits pole-mounted exterior installations requiring directional roadway distribution. The 70-watt, 12,000-lumen output is suited to street and roadway lighting layouts that do not require high-output roadway fixtures.
- roadway lighting
- street lighting
- municipal lighting
- neighborhood lighting
- campus roadway lighting
- private road lighting
- parking lot perimeter lighting
The IP66 rating, IK09 impact rating, aluminum alloy housing, and surge protection support exterior operating conditions. Pole mounting and the selected optical distribution must align with the installed pole location and required lighting pattern.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This fixture mounts to a pole and requires a 100V-277V supply. Verify pole mounting details, branch-circuit voltage, dimming wiring, and photocell requirements before installation.
The 12.5-pound fixture weight and EPA rating of 1.6 should be considered with the pole and mounting assembly. Access for future cleaning, inspection, and fixture service should remain available after installation.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
In roadway lighting and street lighting layouts, fixtures are pole-mounted with the Type 3 distribution directed along the travel path. Pole mounting height and roadway geometry affect the final layout.
Municipal lighting, neighborhood lighting, campus roadway lighting, and private road lighting commonly use repeated pole-mounted fixture layouts. Spacing varies with the selected optic, mounting height, and required light pattern.
For parking lot perimeter lighting, the directional distribution is positioned to place light along the perimeter rather than using a full-area distribution. Higher-output layouts may reduce fixture quantity, but final placement must maintain the required distribution pattern.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This fixture is ETL listed and rebate eligible.
It is rated IP66 and IK09 and includes 5kV line-to-line and 10kV line-to-earth surge protection. Warranty information is not included in the supplied specifications.
