Bulk LED Sports Floodlight Supply For Metal Halide Retrofit Projects

Replacing metal halide sports lighting with LED can reduce energy consumption, maintenance requirements and improve lighting control. For contractors handling multiple sports field retrofit projects, selecting a standardised LED floodlight range with different wattages and beam angles can simplify project specification and procurement.

The FORTOMO 41SL 300W–500W LED sports floodlight is designed for football pitches, training grounds, school sports fields, rugby grounds and other outdoor sports facilities.

300W–500W LED Floodlights For Metal Halide Replacement

The 41SL is available in 300W, 400W and 500W , producing 45,000–75,000 lumens with a stated efficacy of 150–170 lm/W .

Instead of replacing metal halide fixtures strictly watt-for-watt, contractors should select the LED configuration according to:

  • Pitch dimensions
  • Pole height and position
  • Required lux level
  • Uniformity
  • Beam angle
  • Existing electrical infrastructure

A professional photometric calculation can determine the appropriate fixture quantity and wattage.

Flexible Optics For Sports Field Retrofits

The 41SL supports 7°, 15°, 25°, 35° and 45° beam angles , providing flexibility for different pole heights and lighting layouts.

Narrower beams can direct light over longer distances, while wider optics provide broader coverage. This makes the 41SL suitable for retrofit projects where existing lighting columns are retained.

Energy-Efficient LED Sports Lighting

With 150–170 lm/W efficacy and a 100,000-hour rated life , the 41SL provides a high-efficiency alternative to conventional metal halide floodlights.

It also supports 0–10V, PWM, DALI, DMX512 and Synapse control options, allowing compatible sports facilities to use different lighting levels for training, competition and maintenance.

Outdoor Protection

The 41SL features IP66 protection , a UV-resistant tempered-glass lens and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +45°C .

Optional 10kV or 20kV surge protection is available for projects requiring additional electrical protection.

The removable driver box and quick-plug connection can also simplify installation and future maintenance.

Bulk Supply For Sports Lighting Contractors

For contractors and project suppliers managing multiple retrofit projects, a standardised LED floodlight family can simplify procurement while still providing different power and optical configurations.

The 41SL combines 300W–500W output, 150–170 lm/W efficiency, 7°–45° optics, IP66 protection and multiple control options , making it a practical solution for metal halide-to-LED sports lighting retrofit projects worldwide .
