Tool-Less Ballast Access


Tool-Less Access Ballast

Simplified Maintenance Through Tool-less Design

Antique Street Lamps™ provides ease of maintenance and promotes worker safety by providing tool-less accessibility to electrical component trays in a wide variety of its period design luminaires. Serviceable electrical components including the ballast, starter, and capacitor are wired and mounted to a removable tray. The lamp socket is mounted to a die cast aluminum swing out cover except for the DS series luminaires that have a horizontal lamp. For increased worker safety and speedy return to service, the electrical parts can be removed in seconds with no tools and minimum lift time in the air. Inoperable electrical components can be repaired conveniently in the maintenance shop for use later as a future replacement.
