Overview

The SCREEN beacon by FARO is an outdoor lamp designed to illuminate gardens, parks and open spaces where constant, long-lasting and well-distributed light is needed. It is installed directly in the ground and occupies a fixed position in the layout of the space, with no visible cables overhead or elements that interfere with foot traffic.

This lamp operates with LED COB technology that delivers warm 3000K light, ideal for creating a welcoming atmosphere without being too intense. The 360º option allows the illumination to be distributed symmetrically around the lantern, covering the surrounding area uniformly. For those who need the light to reach further, the wide variant disperses the beam over a greater distance.

FARO is a Spanish company with a long history in lighting, present in both residential and public-use projects. Its products combine solid technical criteria with careful finishes, designed to last under real conditions of use.

Installation and specifications

This beacon is fixed directly to the ground. Before installing it, it is advisable to check that the electrical connection point is properly protected and compatible with outdoor use. The wiring must run underground or in a protected conduit, away from moisture. It is recommended that the installation be carried out by a qualified electrician, especially if it involves digging trenches or connecting to an electrical panel.

To keep the lantern in good condition, it is sufficient to clean it periodically with a damp, neutral cloth. Abrasive products or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate diffuser must not be used. Although the body is constructed from aluminium and withstands outdoor conditions well, it is advisable to check the ground fixing points at least once a year to ensure stability.

Design and use

The SCREEN collection by FARO is designed to meet the needs of outdoor spaces where lighting must perform well regardless of the weather. The body of this lamp is made from aluminium, a material that withstands the elements without deteriorating easily and maintains its appearance over time. The transparent polycarbonate diffuser allows light to pass through without distorting it, resulting in clean and uniform illumination.

The dark grey finish gives the lantern a discreet presence in the garden. It does not draw attention during the day, but when switched on at night it clearly defines the space. This balance between functionality and aesthetics is what makes this type of beacon a good fit for both private gardens and communal areas of residential developments or public parks.

The IK10 rating is the highest level achievable in protection against mechanical impact. This means the lamp withstands accidental knocks without the structure or diffuser being compromised. Combined with the IP65 rating, which protects against direct rain and dust ingress, the result is a luminaire ready to be installed outdoors without reservation.

The LED COB technology incorporated in this beacon produces light at 3000K, which corresponds to a warm white. This is the type of lighting that creates relaxed atmospheres at dusk, far from the coldness of intense white lights. It works well in gardens with vegetation, where that tone enhances natural colours without forcing them. It also complements terraces or passageways well, where lights should guide without causing discomfort.

The DALI version of this lamp is compatible with lighting control systems that can be dimmed via digital protocol. This allows the beacon to be integrated into more complex installations where the intensity needs to be adjusted centrally or programmed at different light levels depending on the time of day or activity. For those managing larger gardens or bigger-scale projects, this compatibility is a practical advantage.

At 800 mm in height, the lamp occupies space in a visible way without being bulky. The 160 mm cross-section is compact and adapts well to both narrow paths and more open areas. It can be placed in rows along a walkway to guide movement, or at specific positions to highlight garden features such as shrubs or seating areas.

The fact that the light source is included simplifies installation. There is no need to source a compatible bulb or adjust the mounting system. The lamp arrives ready to connect and switch on.

Questions and answers

What does it mean that this beacon has IP65 protection?

The IP65 rating indicates that the lamp is fully protected against dust ingress and withstands water jets from any direction. It is sufficient for outdoor installation without the need for additional cover, even in areas with frequent rainfall.

What advantage does the DALI version offer over a conventional beacon?

The DALI version allows this lamp to be connected to digital control systems that regulate the lighting intensity in a programmed or remote manner. It is useful when you want to adapt the light level to different times of day or integrate it into an installation with multiple lights managed collectively.

Can the included LED COB lamp be replaced if it fails?

The LED COB light source is integrated into the luminaire. In the event of failure, it is recommended to consult FARO's technical service or contact the point of sale to assess the most appropriate solution.
