Oclyte® Floodlight Column

Security requirements, outdoor displays, sports fields and work areas require varying degrees of illumination which in turn need a versatile column on which to fix the appropriate lanterns or cameras. Oclyte® Floodlight Columns come in varying designs to maximise the illumination or coverage needed.

Oclyte® modular steel columns comprise a range of interchangeable octagonal tapered steel elements each of which friction fit together to provide the desired height between 4.2 and 18.1m. These steel galvanised octagonal sectional columns come in a number of mounting heights and installation options to take up to 6 floodlights per column.

FEATURES

Manufacture

The columns are manufactured from mild steel with a minimum yield of 250 MPa ranging in thickness from 2, 3 and 4mm, which, after folding, is seam welded and then hot dip galvanised to finish. Higher yield steels are also used where high loads and taper constraints dictate.
