Description
The BLOCK range of special vandal resistant atrium floodlight luminaires is designed for use in
high level cell block circulation areas. The body is made from sheet steel and EPC painted in
textured white as standard. The luminaires are approved for use in HM Prison atrium areas by
Home Office engineers.
The diffuser is made from thick clear reeded polycarbonate which is virtually indestructible and
can withstand repeated blows. The controller is held in a steel frame and gasketed to prevent
ingress of both water and dust. The geartray is made from mild steel and finished with an EPC
coat in white. It is removable and also acts as a reflector.
Versions using the Philips QL induction lamps have an average rated maintenance period of up
to 60,000 hours, or 15 years at 4,000 hours per year.
All luminaires in this range are designed to comply with BS EN 60598 and are suitable for
operating in interior and exterior applications. Each luminaire also complies with European
Directive 89/336/EEC and carries the CE mark.

![]() Applications
The BLOCK range of luminaires is suitable for wall mounting in several different lamp versions.
The unique design ensures that all versions are virtually unbreakable and are therefore suited to
highly volatile areas where vandalism is prevalent. Such areas could be:
High level cell block circulation areas
Police stations, prisons and high security areas
Circulation areas in high rise council buildings
Security lighting applications
Maintenance
For best results do not use abrasives or highly alkaline cleaners on the fittings. Do not use
squeegees, razor blades or other sharp instruments. Do not clean the diffuser in hot sun or
elevated temperatures.
To remove labels, stickers etc., from the diffuser the use of
kerosene, naphtha or white spirit is generally effective.
After cleaning a final warm wash should be made using a mild
soap solution and ending with a thorough rinse with cold water.
Wipe off surface moisture from metalwork.
Generally speaking, if the luminaires operate only in the hours of darkness, a re-lamping and
cleaning programme every 12 months to 36 months is advisable depending on which type of
lamp is used.
Standards
All luminaires in the BLOCK range are designed and manufactured in accordance with the
relevant sections of BS EN 60598. In addition, they comply with the requirements of European
Directive 89/336/EEC and carry the CE mark. Each and every fitting undergoes stringent testing
in excess of that required under the standard, to ensure that any possibility of luminaires arriving
on site in anything other than full working order is kept to an absolute minimum.
