In the outdoor lighting industry, the fight against the elements is not a recent challenge. Often, however, the enemy is invisible and moves silently within the circuits.
Infiltrations and the capillary effect
In outdoor lighting fixtures, the most insidious problem is condensation that spontaneously arises inside the lamp.
This phenomenon occurs by capillary action: moisture literally rises through electrical cables. It is an almost unstoppable physical process that occurs especially when, during installation, the insulation of the cables is not impeccably cared for.
Why can't condensation be ignored?
What happens if you underestimate this risk? The result is inevitable: constant infiltration and irreversible damage to electronic components.
An unprotected system leads to early malfunctions, short circuits, and a drastic reduction in product life. For a professional or end customer, this means high maintenance costs, frequent replacements, and, most importantly, the loss of reliability of the entire lighting system.
AcquaStop by Augenti Lighting
To permanently eliminate these critical issues, Augenti Lighting developed AcquaStop.
What is AcquaStop and how does it work?
AcquaStop is a special process applied to all our projectors and recessed floor lamps:
- Multilayer resinning: through different application steps of specific resins, we create a total waterproof barrier.
- Airtight sealing: the system seals the lamp permanently, blocking the entry of air and moisture from the cables.
- Zero condensation: thanks to this technology, the formation of internal condensation is physically prevented, ensuring maximum protection over time.
100% Tested: Uncompromising reliability
We don't rely on chance. Every single lamp equipped with AcquaStop technology undergoes rigorous quality control before leaving our factories:
- Total immersion test: the apparatus is immersed in hot water at 45°C.
- Thermal stress simulation: this test simulates the most critical climatic conditions and thermal changes that favor condensation.
- Single certification: only after passing this endurance test, the product is considered ready for delivery.
Choosing AcquaStop means investing in outdoor lighting that doesn't fear the weather or the elements.
