Ovia introduces Mounting Collars for Gator LED Street Lights


O


via has introduced two new mounting collar accessories for


its Gator LED street lights. The Gator luminaires are designed to fit a Ø76mm pole/post straight from the box. With the new collar accessories, installers can easily swap the spigot and make it compatible with Ø50mm and Ø60mm pole/posts. This innovative solution provides ultimate flexibility, to allow the perfect fit for any project. Made from cast aluminium,


the mount collars are supplied in a grey finish to match the Gator street light and they are supplied with 2 x M8 x 16mm cap heat stainless steel screws to mount the collar to a post or wall bracket. Ovia’s Gator is a reliable, high-performance LED lighting solution with CCT switch. With an IK10 housing and IP66 rating, it is ideal for lighting larger outdoor areas, such as car parks and walkways, and is designed to be quick and simple to install by way of an easily accessible gear tray and piano key cable terminals. There are three size/wattage options to choose from – large (135W), medium (65-100W) and small (20-40W). The luminaires offer 50,000 hour lifetime and 85⁰ x 150⁰ beam angle. The reversible mount option is an additional feature. The mount bracket can be rotated and pivoted


to allow for vertical or horizontal fitment with no additional joints required. A wall bracket is available and the shorting cap can be replaced with a photocell sensor to assist with energy saving. The Gator street light and mounting collar accessories come with a five year warranty. More information on the range can be found on the Ovia website.
