IMPORTANT!!
Corten
Corten steel is a type of steel which contains copper, phosphorus, nickel
and chrome in a ratio that makes the steel weathering steel so that the
“ready” rusty surface protects the steel against corrosion 6-8 times better
than the “standard” rusty steel. Be aware of any rust staining in the curing
period. If the steel is buried, its corrosion rate will be the same as for
standard steel. The word “Corten” from “Corten steel” originates from
“CORrosion resistant high TENsile steel”.
In Denmark, outdoor lightings must be mounted by an althorized electrician

Guarantee
The Nordlux Outdoor lamps in copper, brass, tombac and galvanized are
guaranteed for up to 15 years. This guarantee applies to extensive corrosion
in the form of holes in the metal caused by rust.
The guarantee is subject to presentation of receipt.
There is not guarantee on the components which have been damaged by wear and
tear or mistreatment of the lamps.
We congratulate you on your new outdoor lamp
Stainless steel
Remember to take care of your lamp. Just follow the guidelines below. The
shiny, uniform and decorative surface of stainless steel makes it very
suitable for outdoor use.
It is an alloy consisting of iron, chrome and nickel. During bath pickling, a
thin, rustproof oxide layer forms on the surface. The surface is continually
vulnerable to atmospheric conditions, and from other effects of the close
environment. This means that the lamp must be regularly maintained if its
surface is to remain shiny and untarnished by rust. Before setting it up,
treat your lamp with acid-free oil, and dry it off with a soft cloth. Repeat
this three or four times a year. Stainless steel lamps are not recommended for
use in aggressive environments such as coastal, agricultural or industrial
areas.
Copper, Brass and Tombac fixtures
Our copper, brass and tombac fixtures are made from respectively solid copper,
brass and tombac. The mechanical machining will leave small scratches in the
surface, as well as residues of rinse aid. This rapidly disappears in the
patina process. After the first rain showers the copper / brass / tombak
surface will appear stained, but the aerated air and moisture will soon make
the lamp appear with dark brownish color. Over the years, the material copper
will get a beautiful patina-green color and brass / tombac will get a darker
and more uniform color. The uniformity of the patina surface, as well as the
rate at which the process occurs is dependent on the environment that affect
the fixture.
Hot-galvanized lamps
The zinc treatment of the steel lamps is executed manually in plants. The
temperature of the melted zinc is about 460 degrees. When the lamps are dipped
in melted zinc a reaction between the metalls occurs, which develops alloys in
the surface. The lamp and the components of the lamp are manually dipped in
the hot zinc. This treatment leaves variations in the coating in the form of
partly an uneven surface and partly minor formations of drops. Thin »zinc
curtains« might also occur on the surface and they show as a thin film which
hangs down from the edge of the lamp. This film can easily be removed or
brushed off with a soft brush.
Condensation
Condensation is a natural phenomenon arising under specific atmos- pheric
conditions. Damp heat and cold air meet, which causes condensation of water on
the surface. When water heats up it leads to rising water vapour, which will
be able to affect electric components. Condensation is not included by Nordlux
warranty, unless it is possible to prove that a technical/production error in
the lighting causes entry of water. In case of condensation please check:
- If the lighting is mounted according to instructions. Washers should seal tightly. Make sure to tension screws and lenses.
- In garden lightings rising damp from the ground may cause condensa
- tion in the metal post. This problem can be defeated by filling sealing material into the metal post.
Aluminium fixtures
Our aluminium light fixtures are made from die-cast and/or extruded aluminium,
where the light fixture’s design determines whether both types of materials,
or just one of them, are used for different parts of the same light fixture.
Aluminium light fixtures in raw aluminium are subsequently coated with a
special clear coat, which seals the surface to safeguard against corrosion.
Painted aluminium light fixtures are powder-coated and have a uniform and
smooth surface. To avoid the light fixture tarnishing, it is recommended to
clean and wipe the light fixture after mounting, and repeat this process 3-4
times each year. This is done with a regular cleaning agent. Black light
fixtures which are bleached by strong sunlight can also benefit from treatment
with silicone spray as needed, to maintain the black color. Mounting light
fixtures in coastal, agricultural or industrial areas is not recommended, as
these aggressive surroundings may cause the light fixture to corrode, which
may entail spalling, bubbles in the surface and a whitish incrustation on the
light fixture’s surface.
- It is highly important that drainage holes are kept free of impurities if any
BEFORE ASSEMBLING THE BOLLARD AGAIN DO REMEMBER TO WIPE OFF ALL PARTS!
