Asker Pole Pro 5161GR is a complete NORLYS LED lighting pole shaped like an upside-down L: an 11 cm square upright of extruded aluminium ends in a head that projects 39 cm, and the whole pole stands 216 cm tall. The profile is powder-coated in graphite RAL 7016. An LED module behind Ledil lenses sits under the head, and the driver is built into the fitting.
Height, construction and mounting
The pole comes in two segments – the lower one 111.5 cm long – packed in a 115 cm box that is easier to carry than one long piece. The pole stands on a 24 cm square base plate and is bolted down through four ø12 mm holes spaced 200 × 200 mm. The ground anchor 117GA0009 and other mounting accessories are bought separately. The pole weighs 10.54 kg.
The terminals take conductors up to 3 × 4 mm², and further poles can be looped through with the same cross-section. The cable entry accepts a round cable 4–8 mm, 8–12 mm or 10–13.6 mm in diameter. As a class I fitting it needs a protective earth; the manufacturer allows up to 50 of these poles on one B16 circuit breaker.
How much light, and what kind
Drawing 8 W, the fitting delivers 1186 lm. The Ledil VSM lens gives an IESNA type V distribution, a symmetrical pool of light around the head, so the pole lights the ground on both sides and suits a path or a small square. Only 0.85% of the light goes upwards (BUG rating B1-U1-G1). 4000 K gives a neutral white; the colour rendering index is CRI 70.
The fitting is not dimmable. The manufacturer quotes an L90B10 module lifetime of over 100,000 h, more than 90 years at three hours a day, and 100,000 h for the driver. The LED module and driver are replaced by a professional service; Norlys offers repair kit ZS5161zx0010 for this.
Durability and use
The fitting is rated IP65, and the optical unit itself – LED module and lens – IP67. IK08 means impact resistance up to 5 J. It works in ambient temperatures from -20 to +45 °C. Norlys intends it for private grounds and parks – along paths and pavements in a garden, in a park, at a hotel or a restaurant. The plain, square-edged form without ornament suits modern, minimalist architecture.
