IP66+:
Totally hermetic street lights

All our luminaires are IP66 according to the UNE-EN 60598 standard, which means that they are fully hermetic: sand, dust, insects, particles of any sort, humidity, salt... none of this can penetrate their polymeric structure. Several devices and a rigorous manufacturing process ensure that the seal remains perfect in any situation –even in very rainy climates, such as tropical ones–, providing absolute protection of each electronic component and each internal element of the street light.

In our luminaires, besides, the IP66 seal is not only limited to the light source, as is usual in the sector, but includes the entire enclosure, also the diffusers, resolving the stains, opacities, and condensations that appear due to of the penetration of external agents. This feature guarantees unalterable light output, lengthens the life of the products, and eliminates maintenance costs and failures related to circuit degradation. We call this total tightness IP66 +, and thanks to it, the interior of the entire enclosure remains as new years after installation.
 
The access system to the lamp also helps to ensure that the seal remains stable even after we open the luminaire. This mechanism consists of a single manually operated lock, which does not require any additional tools. Thus, once we have completed any task inside the luminaire and we put it back to its operating position, the seal will remain intact. 

As mentioned, all our products reach the IP66 category, set by the UNE-EN 60598 regulation. This scale classifies the luminaires according to the degree of protection they offer against the ingress of foreign bodies. The first 6 indicates that the lamp is dust-tight, and the second, that is able to withstand strong jets of water from all directions. ATP's testing laboratories reproduce the toughest climatic conditions to empirically demonstrate the resistance of the materials and their total sealing, and can certify:

Protection against penetration of solid bodies: our equipment passes tests with constantly moving clouds of dust of 2 kg/m³, with a diameter inferior to 75 µm.

Protection against penetration of fluids: ATP luminaires withstand water projections of 100 kN/m² from all angles.

These two tests are a standard for any streetlight of our firm, and that sets a level of reliability  which has never been achieved by any other manufacturer.

ATP was the first and remains the only manufacturer who holds a degree of protection IK10 for the pole and the access panel, and a category IP66 for pole-access panel enclosure, both certified by AENOR. This exclusive ATP seal prevents the penetration of solid bodies and fluids inside the pole, and that ensures full protection against electrocution and preserves all the internal components. Also, the IK10 guarantees the maximum impact resistance of the whole structure: in fact, poles and access panels pass without any difficulty hit tests beyond 50 joules, which is more than twice the UNE-EN 62262 standard for the IK10 category.
