Built for the outdoors, built to lastThe SSL-AL3 uses a pressure die-cast aluminum body that pulls heat away from the LED boards for better thermal management — the single biggest factor in how long an outdoor
LED area light really lasts. The optic is a UV-resistant prismatic polycarbonate lens, so it will not yellow or crack the way cheap acrylic does after a few summers. The complete assembly is
IP65 wet location rated with an operating range of -40 ˚C to +45 ˚C, which covers a Prairie cold snap and a July heat wave without drama. The slim 2.48" profile also means less wind load on the pole and a cleaner look from the street.
Light quality and Type III distributionThis SKU is fixed at
2200K, a warm amber tone that is easy on the eyes, reduces glare perception and is often requested near residences, shorelines, resorts and dark-sky-sensitive sites. With
CRI 80, plates, signs and vehicle colours stay readable on camera and to the eye. The
Type III distribution throws light forward and to the sides in a wide asymmetric pattern, the classic choice for perimeter poles along a driveway, a drive aisle or a roadway edge where you want coverage without blasting the property behind you. Type IV and Type V lenses exist for this family and are ordered separately.

Electrical, controls and installationThe auto-sensing driver takes anything from
120V residential up to
347V commercial without switches or jumpers, which is why contractors keep this fixture on the truck: one part number for a strip mall, a farm yard and an office campus. The 10KV surge protection device guards against line transients on long pole runs. Wattage is field selectable, so you can commission at 200W and step up to 300W later if the site gets busier.
0-10V dimming allows curfew scheduling with a lighting control panel or a network node. The fixture arrives with an installed
photocell receptacle and a shorting cap (SCR): leave the cap in for constant control from a panel, or swap it for a photocell for automatic dusk-to-dawn switching. Mounting options include slipfitter, square/round pole mount, adjustable trunnion and small yoke.
Applications, accessories and documentationTypical projects: parking lots, roadways, auto dealerships, campuses, distribution yards, self-storage sites, arena and church lots, condo visitor parking and rural farm yards. Complete the installation with the
pole bracket for LED floodlight in bronze or the
knuckle bracket for LED floodlight in black, add the
SSL-AL3 120-347V photocell sensor, keep a spare
SSL-AL3 shorting cap on hand, and use the
SSL-AL3 house shield in black where a neighbouring property needs protection. LM-79, LM-80 and polar candela data back the performance claims, and the full technical PDF spec sheet is available in the Documentation tab for your submittals and permit package.
