Beka Schreder has announced a new outdoor solar-powered sports lighting solution dubbed the SolarFlood-Sport.
This new solar lighting solution provides a high-performing, robust option for outdoor recreational sports field applications. It was designed and is manufactured in South Africa for harsh environmental conditions, preventing early failure and offering a reliable solution at a 5-hour 100% light output for 365 days a year. Only top-rated quality components have been selected, leading to maximised product lifetime.
The new luminaire provides a light output of 21 000 lumen, with a cool white LED colour temperature (5700K). This solution provides adequate lighting even during periods of load shedding or power reduction.
The company offers four standard design options with lighting levels varying up to 92 lux average with amazing uniformities:
- Full-size soccer field
- 5-A-Side soccer field
- Single multi-purpose field
- Double multi-purpose field
These applications were selected as being the most common community sporting environments. However, any custom solution could also be designed and supplied.
The SolarFlood-Sport is a great option for community recreational sporting activities and offers solutions where reticulation and energy costs are not affordable to the community. By installing a sustainable lighting solution, social and sports areas can be transformed into well-lit community venues, creating a safe environment for community members to have gatherings of a social nature, albeit informal markets, meetings and just a safe environment for children to enjoy a healthy way of life.
Further key highlights include:
- Sufficient autonomy to cater for up to two continuous overcast or rainy days, to continue its reliable operation
- Long-life lithium (LifePO4) energy storage technology, offering up to eight years battery lifetime
- Cost benefits as no cable reticulation is required
- Warranty up to 5 years (terms and conditions apply)
