Outdoor Tube System

The Outdoor Tube System is a familiar signature Kim product. Itsultra-clean design, accomplished by unifying the pole and fixturehead, produces a striking aesthetic. It is a design that blendsinto the background with ease, or becomes a focal point ifdesired.

A Modern Classic, the OTS series provides excellentperformance in a compact profile. It has proven itself with a solidtrack record of applications on a global scale. The OTS is truly aworld-class design. The reason for such outstanding success isthat it is one of the best engineered designs in outdoor lighting. It is simple to install, easy to maintain, and extremely durable. It simply weathers design trends as well as it does the elements,with the grace of a true classic.

LANDSCAPE / PATH ZONENear the building, luminaires should begin to disappear, blending into the landscape and hardscape elements.

BUILDING / PERIMETER ZONENo pole mounted luminaires should ever be used near the building, as they will dominate the architecture. The only exception would be the use of decorative luminaires to delineate entrances to the structure. Building mounted, architecturally compatible fixtures should be almost invisible.

PEDESTRIAN ZONEAs you leave the parking lot and transition to pedestrian areas, poles should decrease in height to 10' - 16'. In addition, luminaires should decrease in scale, and can have more decorative features to be appreciated at the pedestrian level.

SITE / ROADWAY ZONEParking lots and roadways require luminaires on 20' - 40' poles to efficiently light these large areas. Therefore, this lighting becomes dominant, and sets the design and style for all other lighting as you progress towards the building.

As Distance to Architecture Decreases, Luminaire Height and Scale Also Decreases

Luminaire design and style remain constant to unify the lighting scheme

KIM THEORY OF RELATIVITYThe purpose of this guideline is to bring a cohesive look to outdoor lighting, maximizing lighting efficiency while preserving the architectural experience. Simply stated, the Kim Theory of Relativity says “Poles belong in parking lots. And, once you leave the parking lot, the outdoor lighting should become less and less conspicuous until it becomes an integral part of the architecture.” In addition, the luminaire style and geometry should remain consistent. If this guideline is utilized, the outdoor lighting will enhance the site and architecture, bringing unity to the outdoor lighting scheme.

DistinctionThe rehabilitation of downtown areas is a growing commitmentthroughout America. The Outdoor Tube System can be a majorcontributor to these efforts by providing increased illumination forsafety and security, with reduced power consumption.In addition, the Outdoor Tube System gives the city distinctionalong with an image of quality and progressiveness. At night, ahigh degree of visual security is established by the controlledfixture brightness, which defines a well-illuminated area forbusiness, shopping, or recreation.

VersatilityThe Outdoor Tube System is being successfully used on a widevariety of applications ranging from parking lots to roadways,parking structures and railroad stations. These applicationsrepresent a diversity of architectural style to which the OTS hasbecome an integral design element. This versatility is a testimonyto the basic design parameters of the OTS: simplicity, cleandetailing, quality construction, and performance lighting. Throughproper selection of size, color, and height, the Outdoor TubeSystem can be a bold design statement, or an almost invisibleblend with surrounding architecture and landscape.

Delineation

DelineationThe Outdoor Tube System is a semi-cutoff luminaire providingadditional value beyond illumination on the ground. As a roadway,driveway, or pathway luminaire, the OTS visually defines directionsand delineates boundaries. It produces more pavement luminancebecause it projects light at higher angles from the fixture. Whetherthe application is roadway or parking lot, OTS controlledbrightness gives psychological comfort. People entering thelighted area will feel visually secure because the OTS producesadditional lighting ambience.

Applications

Parking Lot/Pathways

The Outdoor Tube System hasbeen sized and configured toprovide efficient lighting, fromparking lots to pathways andcourtyards. It is available in 6" or8" diameter. The choice for mostparking areas is the 8" system insingle or dual configurations on20' to 30' poles. As you transitionfrom parking lot to pathway, the6" system on 12' to 16' polesbecomes the functional choice.The overall effect is a completeunification of the outdoor lightingscheme, with logical fixturescale and height relative to theareas being lighted.

Roadway

The Outdoor Tube System is an expression of simplicitycombined with performance. It includes all the installationand maintenance featuresrequired in a roadway lightingsystem. As a single mount, theOTS provides excellent streetlighting from a curbsidelocation. For streets with a medianstrip, the dual mount providescomplete illumination with fewerpoles and simplified undergroundwiring. At intersections, a 2L dualmount lights the corner withincreased illumination in theintersection. The Outdoor TubeSystem will give any city aprogressive, forward-lookingimage.

PerformanceA unique combination of hydroformed reflector with borosilicate glassrefractor delivers outstanding performance from the compact OTSoptical compartment. A wide longitudinal light distribution producesexcellent pole spacing with high pavement luminance. The refractoralso controls excessive down light for superb uniformity of illumina-tion. OTS brightness creates lighting ambience resulting in psycho-logical comfort and visual security for people entering the lightedarea. The optical chamber is easily accessible by sliding out themaster mounting rail.

Master Mounting Rail (Optical/Electrical Module)All optical and electrical components are mounted on a single railextrusion which easily tracks in and out of the fixture. This featureeliminates hinges and latches. For access, the mounting rail is pulledout just far enough to expose the lamp. If the ballast module requiresservice, the entire rail is pulled from the fixture. A self-containedassembly, the ballast module attaches to the rail with keyhole slots,and is wired using quick-disconnect plugs. Spare ballast modulescan be quickly inserted for continuous operation, while inoperativemodules are repaired in the shop.

Concealed Single Bolt Pole AttachmentUncompromised strength and clean detailing were design parame-ters strictly observed in the Outdoor Tube System. The critical fixture-to-pole connection is made using an internal bolt easily accessiblethrough the knuckle. The heavy knuckle casting mates with an inter-nal pole casting to prevent fixture rotation in heavy wind. Once theknuckle casting is secure, fixture tubes are easily mounted usingflush allen-head screws. To insure proper orientation of fixtures, poletop casting is factory aligned with the anchor base, and knuckle cast-ings lock in 45° intervals

Main Power Quick-disconnect For electrical safety during relamp or ballast module servicing, poweris disconnected the instant the master mounting rail is disengaged.The thermoplastic quick-disconnect plugs are self-aligning, mountedon steel brackets, and are rated for 10,000 matings. All componentsare wired at the factory, with leads from the female portion of the dis-connect supplied long enough to reach the pole hand hole. Fieldsplices are required at the hand hole only. The Main Power Quick-disconnect feature also makes initial installation easy becausefield wire connections inside the fixture are eliminated.
