Top
Rugged, cast aluminum. Provides rapid heat dissipation.
Encloses the upper reflector so it is hidden from view.
Tamper-proof screws provide easy access to lamp
compartment.
Housing
Consists of a heavy-duty, seamless extruded aluminum
tube. Lifts off base for easy access to ballast.
Optics
Lower dispersing reflector, in conjunction with a truncated,
octagonal upper collecting reflector, provides low-glare,
highly efficient illumination with optimum uniformity.
EXAMPLE
luminaires mounted on 20' centers produce a symmetric
light pattern with a max. to min. uniformity ratio of less
that 4:1.
Lens
1/4" wall, impact-resistant clear acrylic. Polycarbonate
lens is optional.
: Using 70W HPS lamps with Bollard Series
Prismatic refractor
All Bollard Series luminaires are available with an
optional prismatic borosilicate glass refractor to provide
efficient, low-glare light distribution.
Gasketing

optical excellence
Glare-free illumination
The Louver Series bollard features carefully designed
louvers that block direct view of the lamp while creating a
channel for high angle light to escape and effectively
illuminate the pathway below. These duel purpose louvers
eliminate glare and provide comfortable fixture viewing
without sacrificing performance.
UNIFORM ILLUMINATION
The Louvered Series bollard features fluted glass
refractors to direct light rays around louver support
elements, eliminating the potential for unsightly shadows
and streaking in the distribution. Coated lamps, in
conjunction with the refractive glass lens, allow the
Louvered Series bollard to produce uniform illumination.
design flexibility
Add some flair and personality to your
application with the use of optional colored
refractive glass lenses. The Louvered Series
bollards allow the design flexibility with a
selection of highly saturated colors. Producing
a blanket of color on the walkway as well as a
pronounced glow on louvered surfaces, they
feature prismatic refractive technology, ensuring
a uniform distribution of color and light.
optical excellence
efficient illumination
The McGraw-Edison Standard Series bollard locates the lamp
in the housing top cap preventing direct viewing of the lamp at
pedestrian and motorist level. The multi-piece reflector system
works in unison to maximize efficiency by redirecting otherwise
unuseable light onto the lower reflector which focuses light onto
the pathway.
Optical Control
McGraw-Edison bollards are designed to efficiently direct light downward onto
the walkway while concealing the lamp from direct view, eliminating discomfort
glare and ensuring safety and visibility for pedestrians and motorists.
The McGraw-Edison Bollard Series present a responsible pathway lighting solution
for the environmentally conscience.
