The NORLYS Asker MD1530CS combines a rust-brown rectangular housing with upward and downward light and an integrated microwave motion sensor. Its body is powder-coated cast aluminium: the corten designation describes the finish, not a body made from weathering steel. This is the sensor-equipped outdoor wall light in the Asker range.
Planning the position on an outside wall
Use the two-way distribution for local façade lighting, beside an entrance or on a terrace wall. The fitting measures 22.5 × 11 × 8.5 cm; compare that envelope with the available wall space and check the swing of nearby doors before choosing its position. Its IP65 rating supports the intended outdoor use, while installation requires a suitable wall mounting position and mains connection.
The included LED module produces neutral-white light at 4000 K. Output from the complete luminaire is 328 lm, with a total power consumption of 9.4 W. Plan around that delivered output rather than treating the wattage as a promise to illuminate an entire terrace. Light is directed both up and down, so this is a different choice from a fitting intended only to light the ground below it. This version is not dimmable.
Set the sensor for the location
The microwave sensor offers an adjustable detection area, hold time and daylight threshold. Hold-time settings run from 5 seconds to 30 minutes. Factory settings are a 100% detection area and a 5-second hold time, with daylight sensing disabled. If switching should depend on ambient brightness as well as movement, the daylight threshold needs to be configured after installation; dusk-dependent operation is not enabled by default.
A restrained shape with a warm finish
A broad front, straight edges and slightly sloping surfaces give the housing its uncluttered appearance. The rust-brown colour provides a warmer contrast against pale walls than a black or grey finish, while the simple geometry suits modern, minimalist and Scandinavian settings. The light cover is transparent, textured, UV-stabilised polycarbonate rather than opal glass.
No separate bulb is required. Replacement of the integrated LED light source and control gear is reserved for a professional, rather than being a routine screw-in bulb change.
