Amerlux has released the newest addition to its dark sky-friendly family of LED luminaries.

The new DS770FC Series is a set of traditionally styled, post-top fixtures that can be specified and used in place of typical acorn-styled luminaries.

The decorative DS770FC post-top luminaire alternatively utilizes fully shielded optics to minimize glare while reducing light trespass and unwanted skyglow. Each solution has been approved by the International Dark Sky Association, the recognized authority on light pollution and the leading organization for combating light pollution nationally.

“As more local governments pass ordinances to reduce light pollution, Amerlux has responded to this concern by releasing a revolutionary set of IDA-approved luminaires that have no outer lens to redirect light up, making it more efficient at putting light where it’s needed,” said Bill Plageman, Amerlux’s VP of marketing. “Our dark sky-friendly solutions effectively do what traditional exterior luminaries cannot: shine the right touch of light on the right spot at the right time.”

The DS770FC Series is available in four unique fitter options, six output levels, IES Type II, III, IV or V distributions and more. An optional integral wireless node allows the fixture to operate on the SmartSite connected lighting system powered by the Synapse.
