With concern growing for the environment, users of traffic signalling equipment are increasingly focused on opportunities to reduce power consumption, as well as ensuring supplier offerings are as environmentally friendly as possible.
The Siemens LED retrofit concept provides real opportunities for significant carbon footprint reductions as well as minimising waste, contributing to a more sustainable solution.
There are many thousands of Helios and Peek Elite traffic signals installed, but the majority of these are still fitted with traditional incandescent signal lamps. As well as consuming large amounts of power, the need to regularly replace these lamps has a significant carbon impact, both in the manufacture of the lamps and the vehicle miles travelled. The retrofit option enables existing installed signals to be upgraded to the latest CLS LED technology, offering:
• Very low power (average 9W)
• Excellent optical performance utilising the SIRA lens style
• Easy installation
• Low environmental impact
• Full lamp monitoring compatibility with ST800 and ST900 controllers
