The ARMODUE collection represents over two decades of excellence in urban lighting, combining Italian craftsmanship with modern LED innovation. Originally established as a benchmark in city lighting, ARMODUE has been completely reimagined with LED technology to achieve superior optical performance, improved sustainability, and significant energy reduction. Available in two main sizes — ARMODUE and ARMODUE MINI — this family of luminaires integrates harmoniously into any streetscape through its clean, balanced design and versatile optical configurations. Its refined form and durable construction allow it to perform reliably across a variety of urban and suburban lighting scenarios, from roads and pathways to cycle routes and green spaces.
The ARMODUE model, measuring Ø627×195 mm and equipped with four LED modules, provides robust performance for large-scale street and public lighting applications. Its larger optical system accommodates a wide array of beam distributions, ensuring precise control and uniform light coverage over extended areas. The ARMODUE MINI version, with a more compact size of Ø550×177 mm and two LED modules, offers the same refined aesthetics and technical sophistication in a smaller format suited for pedestrian areas, narrower streets, and residential environments. Both models are built to blend functionality with architectural integrity, maintaining consistent visual coherence within contemporary urban settings.
For extended performance and configurability, the ARMODUE TRIO and ARMODUE MINI TRIO variants expand the collection with enhanced optics, construction resilience, and control flexibility. These versions are purpose-built for street and urban lighting applications, supporting multiple asymmetrical optical systems tailored to specific requirements. Options include STE-M/S optics for suburban roadways, STU-M/S for city streets and cycle paths, STW for wide urban roads and wet asphalt conditions, and S05 for urban and green areas. Each optical system utilizes precision aluminum reflectors with vacuum-sealed deposition and a 99.95% purity finish, achieving optimal reflectance and visual comfort.
Both ARMODUE TRIO and ARMODUE MINI TRIO are engineered for reliability and adaptability in challenging outdoor environments. They offer IP66 protection against dust and water ingress, IK08 impact resistance, and operate within a temperature range of -40°C to +35°C for ARMODUE TRIO and up to +50°C for ARMODUE MINI TRIO at 525mA. The insulation is available in Class I or II configurations, ensuring safe operation across various electrical standards. The luminaires include removable and replaceable LED modules and gear trays, simplifying maintenance and extending service life. The adjustable tilt mechanism from 0° to 90° enables flexible orientation on standard Ø60 mm brackets, accommodating diverse installation needs in both new and retrofit projects.
Each version achieves an LED source efficiency of 168 lm/W at 525mA and 85°C, with a default color temperature of 4000K and optional 3000K for warmer environments. The color rendering index (CRI) of ≥70 ensures accurate color perception, while the photobiological safety classification of Exempt Group guarantees user protection. The luminaires operate at a rated voltage of 220–240V, 50/60Hz, with a power factor greater than 0.9 at full load, ensuring electrical stability and minimal losses. Built-in on-load switches with integrated cable clamps and cable connectors for up to 4 mm² conductors streamline installation and connection. Optional surge protection devices (SPDs) provide up to 10kV/10kA protection, with LED indicators and thermal fuses for disconnection at end of life.
Control flexibility is integral to the ARMODUE series, offering multiple configurations to suit modern smart lighting systems. Options include fixed power operation, automatic dimming via virtual midnight profiles (DA), customized dimming schedules (DAC), constant light flux (FLC), and DALI digital dimming interface for networked control. These systems enable municipalities and lighting designers to adapt performance to environmental and operational conditions, reducing energy use and extending component longevity.
Structurally, the luminaires combine durability and refined aesthetics. The ARMODUE TRIO’s housing is constructed from die-cast aluminum UNI EN 1706, with a spun aluminum body, extruded aluminum heatsink, and a die-cast lower frame for thermal efficiency and structural rigidity. The ARMODUE MINI TRIO uses the same high-grade aluminum components, powder-coated for corrosion resistance and finished in Graphite (Code 01) for a sleek, contemporary appearance. Both variants are equipped with 4 mm flat tempered glass screens offering high transparency, EPDM gaskets for environmental sealing, and M25x1.5 plastic cable glands rated IP68 for secure connections.
Every detail of the ARMODUE family reflects AEC Illuminazione’s dedication to longevity, efficiency, and visual harmony in public lighting. Whether illuminating expansive boulevards or intimate pedestrian spaces, ARMODUE ensures a balance of performance and design integrity. Through precise optical engineering, modular construction, and advanced control capabilities, this luminaire collection continues to define the standard for sustainable, elegant, and future-ready urban lighting.
