This modern luminaire has a die cast aluminium body with a sloped profile to offer an abstract design for contemporary applications. The luminaire has an IP rating of IP65 for the optic housing and gear enclosure. The flat glass glazing prevents light pollution which also reduces sky glow. The glazing is secured to the body of the luminaire by a quarter turn captured screw. The two securing screws at the front of the luminaire, when released, reveal the gear enclosure. This fitting with its ability to house the gear in a separate compartment allows for the option of electronic control gear that runs at a lower temperature.

The Sharkon luminaire has a body made from die cast LM6 aluminium with a steel frame for the flat glass glazing. The front of the luminaire hinges up to allow access to the gear compartment for maintenance. The unit is direct post fittied obviating the need for a bracket. The glazing is released by a single quarter turn captured screw thus providing easy access for relamping. The standard optic supplied is the Facet 7 which is mounted on a removable tray. The Sharkon is supplied, as standard, as a direct post fixing but multiple units can be applied with the addition of a bracket that allows double and quadruple units for higher mounting heights when lighting car parks and other open amenity areas.

All gear is class I wired and a full range of discharge gear can be fitted within the gear enclosure, which is mounted onto a gear tray for easy removal and maintenance. The lamp feed is supplied through a plug and socket arrangement. Photocells are fitted into the top of the gearbox, and an external drop down flex connector is supplied, for the post-top mounted version, for ease of termination.

The Sharkon fitting is designed to be a direct post mounted luminaire with a post top entry of 89mm, which allows mounting heights from 4m to 6m to be accommodated. Larger diameter columns with swaged tops can also be utilised for 8 to 10m mounting heights; if required a bracket can also be added to give luminaire projection and multiple options.

Photocells - Single and two part electronic photocells are available as standard and should be factory fitted to maintain the ingress rating of the fitting.

Finish variations - The luminaire is supplied with a Ral 9006 Silver gear box and glazing tray, with the front enclosure finished in Blue Ral 5002. Other colours are available but may be subject to quantity, and prices may differ.

Luminaire construction - Cast aluminium body with recesses for sealing gaskets and robust cast hinges built into the luminaire.
