Rocci-240v-316 Stainless Steel Bezel & Aluminium 9.8w 3000k 580 Lumens IP67 120 Degree Beam Fixed Round Recessed Light

The Rocci is a sturdy mains 200v – 240v recessed up-light which can withstand up to 807kg (0.89T) 1 ton weight.  It has an aluminium
body but a 316 Stainless Steel bezel measuring 12.6cm diameter. The energy consumption from the integral LED
is 8.6w.  The anticipated life of the LED module is 30,000 hours.  This module can be replaced but only by
the manufacturer (SLV) or a service technician authorised by them. The colour temperature of the LED is 3000k which is
a warm white and it gives out 580 lumens which is approximately that of a standard 50w incandescent bulb and has a 120
degree beam angle built into the reflector. It is an IP67 rated fitting. The glass is clear glass.

The dimensions are 12.6cm in diameter for the bezel.  Depth of  12.3cm and a cut out of 11.3cm.  The fitting
is housed in a mounting pot for easy assembly.

Lamp colour ( Kelvins )

The colour of a lamp is defined as a measurement called kelvins. A standard GLS incandescent bulb in the home would be
2,700 kelvins which is in the warm colour spectrum and a lamp with 5,000 kelvins would be at the very cold white
spectrum.

Installation 220 – 240v

Choosing the style of a product is only part of the equation you must also think of where that product will be used and
how it will be installed. All exterior lighting products on our web site have an IP rating appropriate to each light
fitting and its intended application and is therefore fit for purpose. Water ingress is the enemy for outdoor lighting
and the products supplied are only as good as the installation. The weakest point is always cable joints. All joints
must be made 100% watertight and this can be done using IP68 cable connectors and/or waterproof junction boxes which
are then filled with a re-enterable liquid gel mix. All joints where possible should be made above ground for easy
access and reduced water ingress. When installing ground buried lights adequate drainage systems should be put in
place especially in clay-based soil areas. If possible, use ground surface spike lights rather than a buried light. 
Mains 240v cable will have less joints than a low voltage installation but care must be taken with the cable runs.
Cabling should be Rubber Butyl and not PVC. PVC leads to capillary action over time especially with UV degradation.

All exterior lights must be installed by a certified NIC EIC electrician and should be signed off by an electrician with
Part P certification. There are a selection of waterproof jointing kits and boxes available on this web site.

Using a single RCD for large numbers of 240v fittings is not recommended due to the risk of nuisance tripping. We advise the use of separate RCD protection for each circuit and a maximum of 12 fittings per RCD. Where a garden lighting installation of more than 12 spike mount or recessed lights per circuit is proposed, we suggest the installation of 12v units with transformers, which results in a significantly higher fault tolerance and reliability in the total installation.
