Overview

The SCREEN floor lamp by FARO is an outdoor luminaire designed to illuminate gardens, parks, and open-air walkways. With a height of 3.1 meters, it covers a wide area from ground level without requiring additional structures. The 180° distribution option allows the light to be directed to one side, which is useful when the lamp post is placed next to a wall, hedge, or property boundary.

The body is made of aluminum and polycarbonate, materials that hold up well in outdoor conditions without deteriorating quickly. The IK10 impact rating indicates it can withstand impacts of a certain energy, which is appreciated in frequently used spaces. The IP65 rating protects against rain and the entry of dust or solid particles.

FARO is a Spanish brand with a track record in residential and contract lighting. Its outdoor collections combine technical criteria with a clean, functional visual result.

Installation and specifications

To install this floor lamp, it is recommended to prepare a concrete base at the anchor point, as it is fixed to the ground. Before starting, check that the electrical wiring reaches that point with adequate protection for outdoor use. The connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician, as it involves work with fixed installation and mains voltage. Observe minimum distances from walkways to avoid accidental impacts on the post.

For maintenance, clean the body surface with a damp cloth and a neutral detergent. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the dark grey finish. The transparent PC diffuser may accumulate dust over time; periodic cleaning helps maintain light distribution without losses. Do not handle the light source or the interior of the lamp post without first disconnecting the power supply.

Design and use

The SCREEN floor lamp belongs to a collection designed entirely for lighting in open spaces. Its height of 3.1 meters makes it a suitable option for illuminating garden paths, entrances to single-family homes, small squares, or residential parks. It is not a decorative accent lamp, but a functional luminaire that covers the ground uniformly within its corresponding radius.

The design is understated. The dark grey finish integrates well in both urban environments and more natural-style gardens. It does not draw attention to itself, allowing the overall space to maintain its visual coherence. In a row of several lamp posts along a path, the result is neat and balanced.

The aluminum body provides structural rigidity without adding excessive weight. The polycarbonate, used in both parts of the body and in the diffuser, holds up well against temperature changes and prolonged outdoor exposure. Together, they form a structure that requires no constant attention once installed.

The included COB LED light source operates at 4000K, a color temperature perceived as neutral white light. This tone does not distort the colors of the surroundings and is comfortable for moving around or for children playing in the garden during nighttime hours. It does not create a warm and welcoming atmosphere like amber light, nor the coldness of higher color temperatures. It is a general lighting source, clear and without harshness.

The 180° distribution option is a practical detail. A conventional lamp post distributes light in all directions, which may be unnecessary or even bothersome if one side faces directly onto a window or a neighbor's property. With the asymmetric version, the light is directed where it is needed, avoiding unnecessary dispersion.

The IP65 rating ensures that the interior of the luminaire is protected against water jets from any direction and against the entry of solid particles. This makes it suitable for climates with frequent rainfall or for areas where garden irrigation may reach the base of the post. The IK10 impact resistance adds mechanical protection against impacts, which is relevant in spaces where people, bicycles, or maintenance work with tools are present.

The compatible voltage between 100V and 240V allows it to be installed without adapters in any standard domestic electrical installation. The 38W power output covers the usual outdoor lighting needs without high consumption.

For those looking to complement the garden with other light sources, this floor lamp can be combined with wall lights, lower ground luminaires, or bollards. The neutral style of the SCREEN collection facilitates this combination without the elements visually competing with each other.

Questions and answers

Does the floor lamp include the COB LED light source or does it need to be purchased separately?

The COB LED light source is already included. It is not necessary to purchase it separately or carry out any additional bulb installation before starting up the lamp post.

What does 180° distribution mean and in what situations is it advisable to choose that option?

The 180° distribution is asymmetric: it projects light to one side only rather than in all directions. It is useful when the lamp post is placed next to a wall, a fence, or a plot boundary, as it avoids illuminating areas where the light serves no purpose or may be bothersome.

Is the IP65 rating sufficient for areas with heavy rainfall or sprinkler irrigation?

IP65 indicates complete protection against dust and against water jets from any direction. It is suitable for outdoors with frequent rainfall and for gardens with irrigation systems that may reach the luminaire.
