Berlin 611BL is a round outdoor wall light in cast aluminium, powder-coated black (RAL 9005). A solid hood covers the upper half of the fitting and a horizontal bar runs across the middle; below it sits a milky, UV-stabilised polycarbonate diffuser. The luminaire has an E27 socket and comes without a bulb.
Size and installation
The wall light is 27 cm in diameter and projects 14 cm from the wall – beside a front door, check that this depth does not clash with the opening leaf. It is fixed with two screws through ø4.2 mm holes spaced 155 × 40 mm. The luminaire weighs 1.75 kg, and 2.06 kg in its 27.5 × 27.5 × 15 cm carton.
The terminals take conductors up to 3 × 2.5 mm², and up to 3 × 1.5 mm² for loop-through wiring, so several lights can run from one supply line. The cable gland takes a round cable of ø7–10.5 mm. The fitting is protection class I and must be connected to a protective earth; installation is for a qualified electrician, following the instructions supplied with it.
Which lamp and what light
The light takes an E27 LED bulb in an A55–A60 shape, up to 9 W, which the user replaces. You therefore choose the colour and brightness yourself – at an entrance a bulb of about 800 lm, the equivalent of an old 60 W, is usually enough. To order, Norlys supplies the fitting together with a Philips Master LEDbulb 806 lm / 8.5 W / 2700 K, which is dimmable; dimming depends on the bulb and the dimmer, as the fitting itself has no control gear.
The hood screens the upper part of the diffuser, so the light spreads as a downward hemisphere: it lights the steps, the threshold and the wall below the fitting.
Durability, service and intended use
IP54 means protection against dust and against water splashed from any direction, so the light can hang on a façade exposed to rain. IK10 is the highest impact-resistance class – relevant for a fitting mounted low beside a path. It operates from −20 to +45 °C. The diffuser (service kit 06620003) and the gasket (08550005) are available as spare parts.
Berlin suits a façade by the entrance, a balcony, and hotel or restaurant exteriors. Norlys builds this model in white and black, with other colours to order.
