If demands for the outside apply inside: Use outdoor luminaires in stations

Lighting tools according to your needs
This is how stations become places that connect people: place your trust in ERCO's robust outdoor luminaires and holistic lighting concepts

Transport structures in local and long-distance traffic are more than just railway stations. They are places that connect people. They are frequently in operation 24/7 and exposed to many external factors of influence – for example temperature, adverse weather and dust. This demands lighting that can withstand it all: hard-wearing luminaires which also enable creative design concepts to be implemented. ERCO offers the complete spectrum. Our outdoor luminaires defy cold and heat, are dust-tight and extremely tough. But that's not all – we offer you a holistic lighting concept that includes a range of lighting tools for optimum visual comfort and economical lighting concepts. You thus have all you need to shape the character of public buildings. After all, you are the one to reflect the aspirations and reality of society. Creating new features and maintaining existing structures presents you with both opportunity and responsibility. Both now and in the future it is more important than ever for stations to provide orientation and safety – and also when implementing hygiene concepts. No matter whether it's rush hour or off-peak times. Become active now and carry out your next project with outdoor luminaires and an economical lighting concept from ERCO.
Why our luminaires are the ideal tools for your project:
Defying wind and weather
Outdoor luminaires are specifically developed to meet the requirements for lighting in urban environments. The housing is made of corrosion-resistant material and is therefore especially weatherproof. The no-rinse surface treatment ensures a reduced dirt deposit. ERCO projectors have an IP65 protection rating, which means they are dustproof and protected against jets of water from all directions.



As tough as they come
Our outdoor luminaires give the cold shoulder to external influences of a mechanical nature: robust ground-recessed luminaires remain intact even with daily bouts of heavy walkover traffic. Bollard luminaires that comply with IK10 impact resistance effortlessly withstand rough treatment from outside. For you this means less repair costs and downtime in daily operation.

24/7 continuous operation
During non-stop operation at stations, downtimes and failures must not occur. ERCO outdoor luminaires require very little maintenance. The LEDs we use have an average failure rate of less than 0.1% over 50,000 operating hours – a value above the market average. You can rely on economical, almost completely interference-free operation.

Persistence
The LEDs in our luminaires have extremely long service lives. This means that over an operating time of 50,000 hours, at least 90% of LEDs still maintain 90% of their original luminous flux (L90/B10). Even after almost 6 years of continuous operation the maintenance value of the illuminance is still not fallen below. Lens systems free of spill light control the light so precisely and efficiently that it is guided precisely onto the target surface – even from large distances.

Toolbox for impressive lighting concepts
Help yourself from the extensive ERCO toolbox: our luminaires, available in different construction sizes, offer different light distributions for lighting tasks in every dimension. Added to that is perfect quality of light in terms of colour rendering and colour temperature as well as precise lens systems for optimum visual comfort. Select from a variety of control technologies and design lighting concepts that inspire with lasting effect.
Qualitative lighting design: the ERCO approach to perception-oriented architectural lighting

Vertical lighting: knowing which direction to take
From the exterior to the interior: create orientation. Uniformly illuminated walls facilitate orientation in rooms and create the best possible impression of brightness in an extremely efficient way. Uniform wallwashing means that dark corners are avoided and a wide effect of space in the room is created. This makes the entire area usable and allows travellers to spread out more freely. Provide orientation in large halls and guide visitors reliably from A to B.

General lighting: Light for seeing
General lighting with good glare control makes circulation areas safe and emphasises routes. Small irregularities in the ground can only be clearly seen if people are not dazzled by glare. Wide oval light distributions are ideal for large luminaire spacing. With a combination of wallwashing and horizontal ambient lighting, you create attractive locations with a high level of visual comfort in which people feel comfortable, find their way around quickly and move safely.

Accenting: set highlights
With pinpoint accent lighting you create high-attention points of orientation and hierarchies of perception. ERCO spotlights with narrow light distributions are ideal for marking stopping points in the room and highlighting information. A high level of illuminance can be achieved in such situations with just a few watts. This allows you to create concise viewpoints, visible even from greater distances, and direct the attention of visitors and travellers in a targeted manner.

With outdoor luminaires from ERCO you benefit from:




Seven light distributions
Lighting concepts are as diverse as the architecture itself. At ERCO you find the right lighting tools with precise light distribution for lighting tasks in every dimension – ranging from focused narrow spot with approx. 6° and high-efficiency extra wide and linear light beams to uniform wallwashing.
Perfect quality of light
Outdoor luminaires with an identical quality of light to the indoor range: you benefit from superior colour rendering, uniform colour temperature, precise colour consistency and high maintenance of luminous flux levels. To ensure that the light only illuminates the target surface, ERCO implements outstanding glare control and precise lens systems. For perfect quality of light and maximum efficiency.
Various sizes
You'll find the ideal lighting tool in the right size and with a suitable lumen package for any lighting task. Whether XS projectors for accentuation, bollard luminaires for reliable and safe path lighting or projectors for long projection distances. We support you in your product selection and also offer a 5-year manufacturer's warranty.
Simple controllability
Rely on uncomplicated lighting with various control technologies such as DALI and phase dimming. Special solutions featuring Bluetooth control can also be requested via our "ERCO individual" service. ERCO mainly self-develops its own control gear. Luminaires can be infinitely dimmed and are mostly suitable for film recordings.
Become inspired: transport structures become places that connect people. With ERCO light.
