May 2015 ARCHITECTURAL EXTERIOR LIGHTING Architectural lighting specialist, Concord, has launched a new brochure for 2015, which details a full complement of outdoor approved lighting solutions. With an emphasis on technical performance alongside aesthetics, the guide has products with the unique ‘Orbital Aiming System’, which allows specifiers and end-users infinite directional adjustment of the light source. The brochure separates products into application areas, including in-ground lighting, underwater luminaires, and wall washers. The products featured will transform any outdoor setting into an ambient environment with intelligent and long-life lighting solutions. The Orbital Aiming System offers infinite adjustment with a simple one touch aiming system and two different graduations for precision aiming of 1° or 5° increments. The uniquely adjustable system enables wall washing (using the elliptical beam version) and offers a perfect solution for correcting the beam after installation – keeping true to the original lighting design. The 360° settings lend the unique design to almost any outdoor application. “We are delighted this brochure has come together and features such an extensive range of architectural exterior lighting,” comments Neil Solanki, SBU manager at Concord. “Being able to incorporate the Orbital Aiming System gives the products unrivalled benefits over more conventional swivel systems, which by comparison offer very little flexibility and are subject to a complicated install.” By using high powered LEDs alongside precise optical lenses, the outdoor lighting solutions are able to produce an incredibly accurate beam output and it also allows for a variety of beam angles to be created. Up to seven beam distributions are available to ensure the use of this range suits any outdoor application. The intelligent updates to this comprehensive range gives control back to the designer.
