Karlstad 2030GA is a two-arm luminaire that slips onto a ø50 mm lighting pole. From the sleeve at the top of the pole, two curved arms reach out to either side, each ending in a flat, conical hat with a clear cover underneath. The finish is hot-dip galvanising, a matt silver-grey zinc coating on the steel; neither the pole nor the bulbs are included.
Size and what you need to add
From hat to hat the luminaire is 93 cm wide, 30 cm high and 32 cm deep – the space the top of the pole needs, including clearance from branches or a wall. It is the head only, so mounting needs a ø50 mm pole and a way of setting it in the ground; other accessories are bought separately. It weighs 3.23 kg, and 5.45 kg in its 94 × 35 × 33.5 cm box.
A factory-fitted 2.4 m lead, 2 × 0.75 mm², type H03V2V2H2, comes out of the luminaire. That length decides where the connection point to the installation has to be.
Bulbs and light
Each arm has an E27 lampholder for an A55–A60 LED bulb of up to 9 W, so up to 18 W in total. The user changes the bulbs, and the colour and brightness of the light are chosen when buying them. The hats shield the sources from above, and the light leaves openly downwards and to the sides, on both sides of the pole. Under the clear polycarbonate cover the bulb is visible, so its look matters too.
Build and durability
The structure is hot-dip galvanised steel, which in this version is also the visible finish, the covers UV-stabilised polycarbonate. IP55 means protection against dust and water jets, so the luminaire stands outdoors without a roof. It works from −20 to +45 °C and is protection class II, with no earth conductor. The cover is replaceable – Norlys sells it as service kit 06240003.
Norlys describes Karlstad as a luminaire of Scandinavian design for gardens, parks and architectural projects; it also suits hotel and restaurant grounds. The same model comes as 2030BL powder-coated black (RAL 9005), and other colours are made to order.
