Overview

The SCREEN lamp by FARO is an outdoor luminaire designed to be mounted directly on the wall. It works well in gardens, patios, entrances and terraces where stable, weather-resistant lighting is needed. The body is made of aluminium and polycarbonate, and the combination of materials gives it a solid construction without adding unnecessary weight.

The lantern features IP65 protection, which means it has no issues with rain or dust. It also has an IK10 rating, indicating resistance to mechanical impacts. These are features designed for real outdoor use, not just controlled conditions.

The asymmetric 180-degree distribution option allows light to be directed where it is most needed, without wasting illumination on areas that do not require it. The 4000K colour temperature produces a neutral white light that allows clear visibility without being harsh.

FARO is a company with experience in lighting solutions for various environments. The SCREEN collection reflects that approach: products designed to last and to perform well day to day.

Installation and specifications

To install this wall-mounted lantern, the base must be fixed directly to the exterior wall. Before mounting, it is advisable to verify that the surface is solid and that the anchors are properly secured. The wiring must be protected and routed through the interior of the wall or through a conduit suitable for outdoor use. It is recommended that the electrical installation be carried out by a qualified professional, especially in outdoor installations where humidity can be a factor.

To clean the lamp, a soft damp cloth is sufficient. Abrasive products or solvents that could damage the polycarbonate must not be used. It is advisable to periodically check the fixing points to ensure that the lantern remains securely anchored to the wall, especially after periods of heavy rain or strong wind.

Design and use

The SCREEN lantern by FARO is designed for those looking for an outdoor lamp that performs its function without complications. The dark grey aluminium body has a sober appearance that fits well with modern facades, stone walls or concrete surfaces. It is not a striking decorative piece, but a luminaire that integrates without imposing itself on the surroundings.

The transparent polycarbonate diffuser allows light to pass through directly. The COB LED source emits from a concentrated point, which makes the asymmetric 180-degree distribution particularly effective for illuminating wide surfaces such as garden paths, pedestrian accesses or patio areas. On a terrace, for example, it can be placed at mid-height to cover the ground well without creating uncomfortable shadows.

The 4000K temperature places this lamp at an intermediate point: not as warm as amber light, nor as cold as a work light. It allows clear visibility outdoors at night, which is useful both in a private garden and in wider passageways such as parks or shared accesses.

The IK10 resistance rating is the maximum level on the mechanical impact protection scale. For a lantern installed in a high-traffic area, in an active patio or in a garden with children, this means the body holds up well without deforming or breaking easily. The IP65 protection adds the assurance that rain and dust do not affect internal functioning. A post or column with a less protected lamp can start causing problems within a few years in humid climates. This collection is designed to prevent that.

The compact size, with 250 mm in height and 160 mm in depth, makes the lantern easy to integrate into walls without taking up too much visual space. It does not compete with the architecture of the place, it simply provides the necessary lighting. In combination with ground-level bollards or with another taller post, it can complete a coherent and functional outdoor lighting scheme.

The COB LED light source is included, so there is no need to search for or purchase anything additional. The working voltage between 100V and 240V makes it compatible with standard electrical installations.

Questions and answers

What does the IP65 rating mean for this lamp and for what type of outdoor installation is it suitable?

IP65 indicates that the lamp is fully protected against dust and against water jets from any direction. It is suitable for installation in outdoor areas exposed to rain, such as facades, gardens or uncovered patio areas.

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

The asymmetric 180-degree distribution concentrates light in a single direction, towards the front of the lantern. This allows a specific area to be illuminated more efficiently, such as the ground of a path or a terrace, without light dispersing where it is not needed.

What level of impact resistance does the aluminium and polycarbonate body of this luminaire offer?

The body has an IK10 rating, which is the highest level on the mechanical resistance scale. This means it withstands impacts and accidental contact well without the material deforming or the interior becoming exposed.
