Lantern Head NORLYS Chelsea 9011CO copper E27 for post

NORLYS Chelsea 9011CO is a lantern head of classic design: a four-sided copper lantern with clear panes and a pyramid roof ending in a finial. The lantern rests on a black cradle of four curved supports, with a sleeve underneath for fitting it onto a post. The panes are made of UV-stabilised polycarbonate.

Which post it forms a lantern with

According to the Norlys datasheet, head 9011 together with post no. 9025 makes up the Chelsea 940 lantern, which stands 150 cm tall. The post is not included with the head, so it is bought separately, like any other mounting accessory. Head 9011 is usually chosen to replace a damaged lantern on an existing post or to assemble a lantern from parts.

Seen from above, the lantern fits within a 25 × 25 cm square, so it is noticeably smaller than in the taller Chelsea 941, where the same post carries lantern 9012, 32 cm wide. That difference shows at an entrance or beside a narrow path.

Which lamp and what light

The lantern has an E27 socket for an A55–A60 LED lamp of up to 11 W. No lamp is included and you replace it yourself, so the chosen lamp sets colour and brightness: a 2700 K LED gives warm, slightly yellow light, and about 800 lm matches an old 60 W bulb.

The light is unshielded and the panes are clear, so the lamp stays visible and becomes part of the lantern's look. Its shape matters as well, for example a filament-style lamp.

Connection and operating conditions

For the 940 lantern Norlys specifies terminals for conductors up to 2 × 2.5 mm² and looping further fittings with cable up to 2 × 1.5 mm², so several lanterns along a path can run from one supply line. The supply cable should be round, 7 to 10.5 mm in diameter. The fitting is protection class II, so it needs no protective earth.

IP44 means protection against splashing water from any direction, and an operating range of −20 to +45 °C lets the lantern stay outdoors all year. Norlys designed it for gardens and terraces, and the catalogue also lists it for hotels and restaurants. The copper lantern follows classic, retro street lanterns; Norlys makes other colours to order from its Colors Template range.
