Martin Cyclo Directional in IP65 Design
Martin Architectural’s Cyclo IP65 Directional Series is a new range of fully weatherproofed directional luminaires designed for outdoor illumination of facades, structures and signage. With a slim linear design based around white or colored 54 W fluorescent tubes, the Cyclo IP65 Directional offers long-lasting performance and uniform distribution of light and color.
Developed around Martin’s patent-pending fluorescent color-mixing module, the Cyclo IP65 Directional Series is further enhanced by its use of a well-known lamp technology that ensures long lamp life (20,000 hours) and a low maintenance schedule.
The Cyclo IP65 Directional can be programmed to generate smooth variations in light and color, as well as ‘daylight’ variations in color temperature. The Series offers a choice of static colors, variable color temperature, or RGB color mixing. Each of the high output T5 tubes is electronically dimmable from 0-100%.
Cyclo 01 IP65 Directional houses one 54W T5 tube rated 4200 K. The tube can easily be changed to a T5 color tube if desired.
Cyclo 02 IP65 Directional houses two white 54W T5 tubes rated 2700 K and 6000 K, allowing color temperature control from warm to daylight white.
Cyclo 03 IP65 Directional houses tree 54W T5 tubes – red, green and blue – allowing RGB additive color mixing. The patented optical system produces a broad, even wash of ready-mixed color.
Cyclo 04 IP65 Directional houses four 54W T5 tubes – red, green, blue and 4000 K cool white – allowing controllable RGB additive color mixing as well as color temperature control with enhanced white light quality from the white tube.
A newly developed optical system is directional and provides seamless color mixing within the main reflector for uniform light and color distribution. No glare, no spill light, just smooth, even, and very bright color. The Cyclo IP65 Directional is designed to be aimed and can be tilted +/– 90° for directional illumination of outdoor soffits, walls or any surface.
Depending on the demands of the application, Cyclo fittings can be controlled in stand-alone operation, synchronised (master/slave) or via DMX. For simple decorative applications, a number of color sequences can be selected from the unit’s DIP switches without the need for an external controller. For more extensive lighting concepts that can respond to seasonal changes or interact with users, the units can be operated by a DMX controller or PC software.
For signage applications that require even illumination from a close mounting position, a long arm (500 mm) model is available.
