Fida, a leader in professional lighting for railway applications, has recently completed an ambitious lighting upgrade project at the historic Milano Centrale Station.
To replace the outdated metal halide lighting system with cutting-edge TLED technology, providing not only superior lighting quality but also greater energy efficiency.
The installation of the new TLED systems covered a large portion of the station, focusing on the platforms of tracks 08-09, 12-13, 14-15, 10-11, and 16-17, for a total length of approximately 1.3 km. Thanks to the installation of 726 TLEDs (170 cm each), the estimated energy savings exceed 60% compared to the previous system.
Now, the station shines with new light, ensuring greater safety and comfort for passengers in transit.
The characteristics of the TLED system
The Outdoor TLED LED Lamp by Fida features a range of characteristics that make it the ideal choice for the transportation sector (transportation solutions), particularly for a critical environment such as the railway sector.
- Robustness and durability
Made of aluminum and glass, the TLEDs feature an IP65 protection rating, ensuring resistance to weather conditions and the stresses typical of outdoor environments. Their solid structure makes them suitable for withstanding even the harshest conditions, guaranteeing reliable performance over time.
- Maximum energy efficiency
Thanks to low-energy consumption LED technology, TLEDs enable estimated energy savings of over 60% compared to traditional metal halide systems. This not only reduces operating costs but also contributes to environmental sustainability by minimizing impact on the planet, demonstrating Fida’s commitment to a greener future.
- Versatility and ease of installation
Designed for industrial applications and the transportation sector, TLEDs offer maximum installation flexibility, with the possibility of continuous line mounting on railway platforms, metro stations, and more. Thanks to their ergonomic design and easy ceiling installation, Fida’s TLEDs seamlessly integrate into existing architecture, ensuring an uncompromised aesthetic.
With the implementation of the new TLED systems, Fida reaffirms its commitment to providing cutting-edge, innovative solutions to enhance user experience and promote environmental sustainability. Milano Centrale Station now shines with a new light, symbolizing a bright and sustainable future for public transportation.
