Designed and engineered as the ultimate tool for providing The Right Light for street lighting applications, Schréder Lighting US General Manager John Camp has announced the introduction of FURYO 3 featuring self cleaning glass and the Philips® CosmoPolis™ lamp.
From refined, artistic architectural lighting to durable luminaires that withstand the harshest elements of tunnel, DOT, and transit environments, Schréder Lighting is the epitome of quality and distinction.
The Right Light for street lighting applications
FURYO 3 is specially equipped with unique, self‐cleaning glass, which eliminates external dirt and dust, allowing better-maintained light output over time.
Multi layer HiR® High-powered reflectors offer ultra high performance and are adapted to the light source and the illuminated area. The reflectors feature a high reflection coefficient based on multi layer technology, offering a reduced size that allows for maximum aiming precision and light distribution.
FURYO 3 was specifically designed for the latest generation of arc tube lamps, Philips® CosmoPolis™, which sets new standards for low operating costs and high performance outdoor lighting. The compact metal halide lamp and electronic ballast system produces a warm white light that brings color and vibrancy to city nightlife. Streets are safer because drivers and pedestrians see better and can distinguish colors clearly. The CosmoPolis significantly reduces energy bills by 30 to 70 percent compared to other white light sources. The lamp lowers maintenance costs with long, reliable life and low lumen depreciation while greatly reducing CO2 emissions. Superior optical efficiency permits increased spacing between luminaires and lamp dimming allows luminous flux to be adjusted.
The compartmentalized die cast aluminum housing for the FURYO III is designed to optimize the cooling of its electronic ballast, which is energy efficient and protected within an IP66 rated compartment. A Sealsafe® IP66 optical module, together with the self-cleaning lens, guarantee the highest possible energy efficiency and a continued dust and water tightness level over the long term. This is proven by the optical system’s 20-year IP66 rating warranty.
FURYO III can be used with Schréder Lighting 's OWLET Intelligent Street and Area Lighting System. Dimming streetlights in off-peak times can save up to 30 percent in energy costs. Utilities need a reliable method of metering an area’s streetlights to be able to credit the city for their energy savings. OWLET’s onboard Metering Chipset monitors and reports power usage with a plus-2 or minus-2 percent accuracy, which is acceptable to most utilities.
OWLET is a telemanagement system for monitoring, controlling, metering and managing outdoor lighting for major roadways, city streets, college and corporate campuses, and other larger public lighting applications. Based on open technologies, OWLET saves energy, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, improves outdoor lighting reliability and security, and lowers the maintenance costs with a short payback period. Each individual light point can be switched on or off, or dimmed at any time. Operating status, energy consumption and failures are reported and stored in a database with exact time stamp and geographical location.
