PANAMA TECHNOLOGY
Panama is a highly efficient PIR solar light with high-capacity LiFePO4 Lithium batteries and a fast charging Monocrystalline solar panel. This means that even on partially cloudy and rainy days, it will recharge efficiently. The high battery capacity gives enough power for up to 23 hrs solid light (approx. 2-3 nights) even when there is little light during the day. At dusk a low-level light illuminates the area, when the PIR is triggered, a high lumens output is projected to illuminate driveways and paths, creating that extra security and safe navigation at night-time, with an anti-glare top guide for downward light.
INSTALLATION
The Panama is designed to be mounted on a low wall, patio, wood or set in
concrete (J-Bolts sold separately) via the external surface mount.
Recommended spacing is 3m apart for substantial path lighting. Closer spacing
/ staggering will result in a more intense light.
Location – The installation location must be carefully considered,
avoiding shady areas. Ensure there are no other lights that could interfere
with the solar panel, imitating daylight and forcing the light off, or causing
constant triggers to the PIR
- To surface mount, use the base to mark the 4 x mounting holes on the mounting surface in the correct position ensuring the PIR is facing the direction required.
- Remove the bollard and drill out the 4 holes marked at the relevant size for the type of mounting screws to be used (anchor bolts recommended)
- Replace the bollard body, lining up the 4 x holes at the base.
- Secure in place with screws/bolts.
- For root mounting, use J-Bolts, set in concrete (sold separately).
NOTE: MAX SCREW DIAMETER = 10MM (M10) – ensure long enough to clear 30mm depth of base. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN
SETTINGS
- The Panama has a pre-set controlled setting which cannot be changed. At dusk, the bollard will illuminate at 50% brightness, and then increase up to 100% when motion is detected. After 30 seconds of no movement, the light will dim back down to 50%.
- This ensures maximum charge is retained.
IMPORTANT – SOLAR BOLLARD MUST BE TURNED ON AT ALL TIMES AFTER
INSTALLATION
If the bollard is left in the off position, you may be prompted to turn the
fitting on by strobing. Solar bollards will only charge when in the ON
position.
Turning on the bollard
- Remove the waterproof rubber bung located just below the polycarbonate lens, in line with the Lumena Logo, to locate the red on/off button.
- Using a small, flathead screwdriver (or similar), push the on button inwards until it clicks and allows it to pop back out (this will be partial). The bollard is now in the ON position.
- Replace the waterproof, rubber bung.
NOTE: There will be a 2-5 second delay between turning the solar light on, and the bollard illuminating. In daylight, the light will turn back off within a few seconds, in darkness it will remain on and follow the controlled cycle.
STORAGE: When storing the bollard, be sure to turn the bollard to the off position by following the above steps (check by covering and uncovering the solar panel). Once pressed, the on/off button will release fully forward. Maximum 6 months storage when fully charged – recharge will be required periodically to prevent damage to the battery over long periods.
