How to Specify the Right Bulkhead for Your Project

It is not always possible to know what colour temperature and wattage a bulkhead

It is not always possible to know what colour temperature and wattage a bulkhead requires until the contractor is onsite. By choosing a bulkhead where colour and wattage can be selected at the point of installation, the contractor can be confident taking the solution to site. The new OrbitalCWS is a great example of this, offering the ability to switch colour between 3000K, 4000K and 6500K. The wattage is switchable between 10W, 14W and 20W, or 15W, 22W and 28W, depending on which version of the OrbitalCWS is specified. Together, these switchable elements, plus the modular plug and play technology, this product offer up to 54 combinations.

The needs of a project can change even when the work is underway, and speedy adaptations need to be made. Bulkheads are an example where planning ahead with a modular solution can allow for the easy accommodation of changing requirements. Using the OrbitalCWS as an example, the standard bulkhead can be installed alongside an emergency and/or Microwave Sensor module to create an EM, MS, or EMMS fitting.

Outdoor light fittings sometimes need to be installed in harder to reach areas or at height. By choosing a bulkhead that is designed to offer a straightforward installation, challenges can easily be overcome. The OrbitalCWS has been designed with a rear-entry access wiring compartment which allows for easy installation, which is further aided by the separate 20mm conduit side entry.

Bulkheads are designed to deliver lighting for a specific outdoor purpose, and as such, they are like to be in place for a long time. By choosing a solution with longevity, such as the OrbitalCWS which offers a 50,000 lifetime, the bulkhead can be fitted with assurance it can remain in situ for the foreseeable future. When combined with Aurora Lighting's 5 year guarantee, further peace of mind is offered to contractors.
