Effective lighting is crucial for port environments, enhancing safety and visibility over large areas. Neil Peterson from LED Lighting Supply discusses the optimal lighting solutions for ports, including fixtures suited for high mast applications.
Key Considerations for Port Lighting
- Location: Ports, typically located by the sea, require durable and high-output lighting.
- Pole Specifications: Tall poles with multiple fixtures, usually ranging from six to twelve per pole.
- Area Coverage: Designed to illuminate extensive areas, often more than a couple hundred feet around each pole.
Featured LED Port Lighting Fixtures
- 600-Watt Traditional LED Fixture: Long-standing choice in many ports, available with trunnion or pipe mount adapters.
- Advanced LED Fixture: Provides more lumens at the same wattage as traditional models, ensuring brighter illumination with similar energy consumption.
- Mounting Options: Both fixtures offer trunnion and pipe mount adapters, suitable for various installation needs.
- Marine Grade Options: Available for both fixtures to withstand harsh saltwater environments.
Customization and Planning
