Reunion Island – Stainless Steel 304 Double & Triple Arm Light Poles (9m, 20 Sets)
1. Project Overview
– Location: Réunion Island (French overseas department, tropical climate).
– Scope: 20 sets of stainless steel 304 light poles, 9 meters tall, featuring double and triple arms for wide-area illumination.
– Application: Likely roadways, public squares, or coastal areas requiring robust and corrosion-resistant lighting.
2. Pole Specifications
Material & Construction
– Stainless Steel Grade: AISI 304 (good corrosion resistance; 316 would be better for coastal zones).
– Design:
– Double & triple arm configurations (for multi-directional lighting).
– Seamless welding for structural integrity.
– Wall thickness: 3–5mm (for wind resistance).
– Base Type:
– Flange-mounted (bolted to reinforced concrete foundation).
– Anchor bolts: Stainless steel (A4-80 grade for salt resistance).
Wind & Load Resistance
– Wind Rating: ≥150 km/h (93 mph) (Réunion faces cyclones).
– Foundation:
– Concrete base: ~1.2m depth (for 9m poles).
– Rebar reinforcement for cyclone resistance.
Surface Treatment
– Brushed or polished finish (standard for SS 304).
– Optional PVD coating (for extra corrosion protection in coastal air).
3. Lighting & Electrical
– Luminaires:
– High-power LED (100W–200W per arm, 4000K–5000K) for road lighting.
– Marine-grade fixtures (saltwater-resistant).
– Smart Features (if applicable):
– Photocell auto on/off.
– Remote monitoring (for maintenance efficiency).
4. Compliance & Standards
– French/European Norms:
– NF EN 40 (lighting pole standards).
– CE Marking (electrical safety).
– Local (Réunion):
– EDF Réunion (utility compliance).
– Coastal construction codes (anti-corrosion measures).
5. Why Stainless Steel 304 in Réunion?
Corrosion Resistance – Handles tropical humidity and coastal salt.
Aesthetic Flexibility – Polished or brushed finishes suit urban design.
Longevity – Minimal maintenance vs. carbon steel.
