Firenze 8012WH is a lantern head: a bell-shaped hood with a clear diffuser, hanging from a curved arm with a bracket for fixing to a pole. The body is cast aluminium powder-coated white (RAL 9003), and the diffuser is UV-stabilised polycarbonate.
Which pole it fits
In the Firenze sets the 8012 head is fixed to the 3040 reducer, which sits on the 3010 telescopic pole with a height adjustable from 193 to 256 cm. The 810 lantern carries one such head, the 820 two and the 830 three, so the 8012 is bought separately when you want to add an arm to an existing pole or replace a damaged head. The reducer and the pole are not included.
According to the installation manual the head is 45 cm high and 27 cm wide, and on the datasheet drawing the arm holds the diffuser 42 cm out from the pole axis. Compare that figure with the free space beside the path or fence the diffuser is to hang over. The terminals take conductors of up to 4 × 2.5 mm², and the cable entry is sealed by an EPDM gland.
Which bulb and how much light
The head has an E27 socket and comes without a light source. It takes an LED lamp in an A55–A60 bulb of up to 9 W and up to 110 mm long, which you fit and replace yourself, so colour and brightness depend on the bulb you choose. Norlys also offers the head with a dimmable Philips Master LEDbulb 806 lm / 8.5 W / 2700 K, warm light roughly as bright as an old 60 W incandescent.
The diffuser is clear, and the luminaire sends 18% of its light upwards, so part of the tree canopy or façade above the lantern is lit as well. IP54 means protection against splashing water from any direction, protection class II needs no earth conductor, and Norlys allows operation from -20 to +45°C.
Where it fits
In our catalogue the head is listed for gardens, parks, hotels and restaurants, the places where a lantern stands beside a path or a driveway. If the diffuser is ever damaged it can be ordered separately as the service kit 06370797. The same model is also available in black (8012BL).
