Martin Architectural Inground 200 Series
For the first time, the benefits of dynamic light and discrete buried installation are seamlessly combined in a simple, easy-to-use system of programmable luminaires.
The Exterior Inground 200 Series from Martin Architectural is a durable range of IP 65/67 rated inground luminaires that represents a breakthrough for its ability to integrate color-changing technology into a standard uplight luminaire. Designed for all terrains and weather, the Inground 200 offers high-performance tools for dynamic uplight illumination of facades, columns, structures, trees and landscapes.
The series offers three different color systems for applications of varying complexity. The Single Color system is designed as a simple means to creating colorful lighting schemes, and lets you choose any color from a collection of forty dichroic filters. Custom colors are also available. The single-color system also provides manual intensity control for fine-tuned illumination.
The 6-color system is a programmable color-changing system for dynamic lighting applications. It offers a selectable palette of up to six colors. Choose a ready-made color scheme or create your own. The 6-color system provides a programmable dimmer for true 0-100% intensity control.
The most advanced and versatile solution, the CMY color system blends the primary colors Cyan, Magenta and Yellow to create a virtually limitless choice. For a beautiful effect, these colors can be programmed to shift smoothly from one shade to another. The CMY system also provides a programmable dimmer for true 0-100% intensity control.
Four different lens systems are available for a variety of beam angle options, medium (32o), wide (56o), very wide (98o), and wallwash. The series includes a patent-pending wallwash optical system with glass reflector and long life CDM 150W discharge lamp. An OptiWhite glass front ensures a high transmission, purer white light and true color projection with no color shift. The system guarantees even, broad illumination of walls and surfaces with uniform light distribution starting at ground leel.
An adjustable lamp frame allows for 360-degree rotation and +/- 15-degree tilt. This compensates for variations in terrain and allows for precise optical aiming. A locking mechanism secures the designer's aiming position even after lamp replacement.
Manufactured from marine-grade steel and clear tempered glass, the Inground 200 is designed to withstand loads of 5 metric tons. For drive-over applications, the luminaire can also be sleeve-mounted and installed in concrete. Special attention has been paid to ensure easy installation.
Designed to the highest quality, all Inground products are weatherproofed to withstand constant exposure to rain, heat and frost. An IP 65/67 rating guarantees safe and reliable operation in all types of weather. Separate compartments for electrical gear, PCB and junction box reduce heat to extend component life. Double glass protection reduces the surface temperature, allowing for safe installation in applications near pedestrians or delicate planting.
Depending on the complexity required, Inground luminaries can either be operated by PC software, or without the aid of an external controller, via a built-in program or master/slave relationship.
