Overview

The FARO RUSH 3700 street light is an outdoor luminaire designed to illuminate gardens, parks and open spaces where stable, long-lasting light is needed. With a height of 3.7 metres, it covers a wide area without creating dark spots. The asymmetric distribution option at 180 degrees allows the lighting to be directed where it is needed most, without wasting light in areas that do not require it.

The body is made of aluminium and polycarbonate, materials that withstand outdoor conditions well. The IP65 protection ensures that rain and dust do not affect the lamp's operation. The IK10 impact resistance level adds an extra layer of protection against accidental knocks. This makes it suitable for both a private garden and high-use spaces such as parks or pedestrian areas.

FARO is a Spanish company with extensive experience in technical and decorative lighting. Its products combine durability criteria with careful design, intended to integrate well into different environments.

Installation and specifications

Before installing this outdoor street light, it is worth checking that the ground anchor point is level and firm. Fixing is done from the base, so it is recommended to prepare a suitable foundation or follow the manufacturer's instructions depending on the type of terrain. The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician, as this is a fixed outdoor installation exposed to weather conditions. Check that the wiring is protected and compatible with the installation voltage before connecting.

For maintenance, simply clean the body of the street light with a damp cloth without abrasive products. The transparent diffuser may accumulate dust or dirt over time; cleaning it periodically helps maintain the quality of the lighting. Do not use solvents or aggressive chemical products on the polycarbonate, as they may damage the surface.

Design and use

The RUSH 3700 street light is part of a technical lighting collection designed for outdoor use. The dark grey design gives it a discreet profile that integrates well in contemporary gardens, but also works in more natural environments where the aim is for street furniture not to draw too much attention. It is not a decorative street light in the ornamental sense, but a functional solution with a careful finish.

The body combines aluminium and polycarbonate, which provides rigidity without adding excessive weight. The transparent diffuser allows the LED light to reach the outside with little loss, making better use of the lamp's power. COB LED technology concentrates several emission points in a single area, resulting in more uniform and stable light than that offered by other configurations.

The colour temperature of 4000K sits at an intermediate point between warm white and cool white. This means that the illuminated space appears neither too yellowish nor too cold. It is a common choice for gardens and passageways where good visibility is desired without the atmosphere feeling clinical. In a private garden, for example, this street light allows paths and access points to be seen clearly without the light breaking the sense of tranquillity of the outdoor night-time setting.

The asymmetric 180-degree lighting option is useful when the aim is to project the lighting in a single direction. This makes sense in situations where the street light is placed next to a wall, a fence or at the edge of a green area. This way, all the light goes where there is activity, without illuminating surfaces that do not need it.

The IP65 protection covers both dust ingress and exposure to direct water jets. This makes it suitable for climates with frequent rainfall or coastal areas with high humidity. The IK10 rating indicates that it withstands impacts with energy of up to 20 joules, placing it at the highest level of mechanical protection. For a space such as a park or a public thoroughfare, this characteristic is particularly relevant.

The street light is installed fixed in the ground, which distinguishes it from portable or rechargeable solutions. It is not a lantern with a motion sensor or an autonomous solar device: it is a luminaire connected to the electricity grid, designed to operate continuously and reliably. This permanent installation makes it suitable for gardening or urban development projects where lighting is planned from the outset.

In terms of blending with the surroundings, the dark grey street light works well alongside stone pavements, metal fences or dark vegetation. In a modern garden with clean lines, it can function as a structural element of the space. In a park with trees and rest areas, it blends more into the background and simply fulfils its function of illuminating the environment efficiently.

Questions and answers

What does it mean that the street light has IP65 protection and in what situations is it relevant?

The IP65 classification indicates that the street light is completely protected against dust and resistant to direct water jets. This makes it suitable for outdoor installation in any climate, including areas with frequent rainfall or high ambient humidity.

What advantage does the asymmetric 180-degree lighting option offer compared to a standard distribution?

With the 180-degree distribution, all the light is projected in a single direction. It is useful when the street light is placed at the edge of an area or next to a surface that does not need illumination, concentrating the lighting where it is actually used.

Can the included COB LED light source be replaced if it fails?

The COB LED lamp comes included with the street light. For any queries regarding replacement or an issue with the light source, please contact our customer service team, who will assess each case individually.
