The post-top luminaires of the LANTERN family interpret the form of the classic lanterns into a new and contemporary type. The result is an installation-friendly, modularly designed luminaire with an elegant, transparent impression and modern lighting technology.

An LED version of LANTERN is now available as the most efficient and modern version.

The luminaire consists of a canopy that can be either singly combined or with one of the two housings (DELUXE, CLASSIC)
With the LED version the classic electrical insert has been replaced by the LED Module 520 especially developed by Siteco for this purpose. The glare-free, directed light distribution is achieved via a precisely matched combination of high performance LEDs, optical lens systems, highly specular reflectors and transparent luminaire enclosures. The LED Module 520 has symmetric or asymmetric light distribution and is available either with 3000 Kelvin or 4000 Kelvin colour temperature. The modular construction ensures that forthcoming, more modern LED generations with higher performance levels can be upgraded later with ease.
The LED Module 520 is equipped with microprocessor-controlled LED operating electronics. This in turn makes available a series of additional functions. These have been combined into three performance packages: Basic, Plus and Premium. All make use of the outstanding property of LED light sources in reducing luminous flux without loss. These values are either factory-set (Basic variant), can be individually set with the Siteco® Service Box (Plus variant) or centrally set via Street Light Control (Premium variant). The Plus and Premium versions offer the widest spectrum of efficient control of LED luminaires according to requirements.

All optical components as well as the electrical inserts and the LED Module 520 for the town and park luminaires MUSHROOM, LANTERN, LANTERN CLASSIC, LANTERN DELUXE, CITY LIGHT PLUS and CITY LIGHT ELEGANCE can be interchanged thanks to outstanding availability of replacement parts and the rapid, maintenance-friendly exchange of components, allowing greater flexibility for design.

The LANTERN is outstandingly suited to the lighting of town centres, parking lots, residential areas and residential and collection roads.

• as LANTERN LED also with energy-efficient LED technology
• LED operating electronics with wide range of functions for efficient control of luminous flux
• many applications possible thanks to timeless design and suitable mast and wall brackets
• unique night-time effect via additional light emission above canopy
• optionally with attractive optical enclosure of PMMA, transparent or pearled
• especially installation-friendly with self-centering mast mounting element (one-point mast connection)
• modular construction enables simplified replacement of parts; electrical block identical with that of CITY-LIGHT and MUSHROOM LUMINAIRE
• extremely weather-resistant coating in Siteco® metallic grey (DB 702S)

Basic performance package:
LED module with 3-pole connection terminal, max. 2.5mm² (2-pole for mains supply + 1-pole for 230V control voltage for power reduction) | control signal: U_St= 230V --> 100% luminous flux; U_St= 0V --> approx. 50% luminous flux
Plus performance package:
LED module with 5-pole connection terminal, max. 2.5mm² (2-pole for mains supply + 1-pole for 230V control voltage for power reduction + 2-pole for Siteco® Digital Interface (SDI) for parameterising the luminaire with Servicebox or integration of luminaire into the digital control system
Premium performance package:
LED module with 2-pole connection terminal, max. 2.5mm² (control and monitoring of the luminaire from a central control point without supplementary control wires; data transmission according to standardized LON protocol)

See the 'LED Module 520' product family for a description of the control and monitoring functions for LED Module luminaire variants and for further information about efficient control of outdoor luminaires
