The S440 XRLED Seville is a small-scale, traditionally styled colonial luminaire that blends old-world charm with modern LED technology. Its design features a tapered four-sided cage and roof that evoke Mediterranean and Baroque architectural influences, making it an ideal choice for historic districts, campuses, municipalities, and upscale architectural environments. The lantern’s classic style is further enhanced by an optional hourglass-shaped opal glass hurricane chimney, which sits atop a decorative brass holder to create a refined and timeless appearance.
The fixture is built for durability with a heavy-wall die-cast housing constructed from low-copper 360 aluminum alloy. This material provides superior corrosion resistance and high tensile strength, ensuring longevity in even the harshest environments. The aluminum fitter includes four stainless steel Allen-head set screws for secure attachment to a 3" OD x 3" tall tenon. Stainless steel hardware is used throughout, with most finishes including hardware treated with a black oxide conversion coating for added protection, while lighter finishes use non-color-coated hardware to maintain a seamless aesthetic.
Lens options are designed to provide both functionality and beauty. The lantern can be fitted with an optional glare-reducing SoftVue™ lens for optimal visual comfort. A wide selection of 1/8" thick lenses is also available, including clear seeded acrylic, clear textured acrylic, and several levels of SoftVue™ diffused acrylic, ranging from light to maximum diffusion. A prismatic acrylic option is also offered, allowing designers to tailor light distribution and visual effect to the specific needs of a project.
Performance is driven by a high-efficiency electronic driver that is UL recognized and remotely mounted in the field, arm, pole, or base depending on the configuration. This constant-current driver operates at 50/60Hz, provides DC voltage output, and includes overload, overheat, and short circuit protection. Supplemental surge protection is built in, in compliance with IEEE/ANSI C62.41.2 guidelines, covering line-ground, line-neutral, and neutral-ground events. With a power factor greater than 0.9 and total harmonic distortion under 20%, the driver ensures stable and efficient operation. Dimming is supported through a 0–10V signal, while an optional fixed dimming resistor board (FDRB) provides a numbered 10-step selector switch that allows field adjustment of light levels from 25% to 100% output. Quick-disconnect connectors simplify installation and maintenance.
The S440 XRLED Seville is UL listed per UL1598 and CSA C22.2 No. 250.0 standards, making it suitable for wet locations in the United States and Canada. The fixture undergoes a rigorous six-stage polyester powder coat finishing process, which exceeds AAMA 2604, AAMA 2605, ASTM D523, and ASTM D4214 standards for durability, gloss retention, and weatherability. This finish system ensures that each product maintains its appearance and performance even in demanding outdoor environments.
A wide variety of finishes allows for extensive customization. Traditional Sternberg finishes include Black, White, Park Green, Architectural Medium Bronze, and Dark Bronze, offered in both textured and smooth options. The Sternberg Select antique-inspired palette provides Old World Gray Textured with metallic flakes, as well as Verde Green and Swedish Iron, which use a two-part system combining a powder coat base with a hand-applied antique top coat that evolves uniquely over time. Specialty finishes such as Rust, Weathered Brown, Cedar, Old Iron, and Weathered Black offer distinctive looks, with two-tone and custom match options available for projects requiring exact site coordination.
Mounting configurations further enhance versatility, with options including wall mount, post top, arm-mounted (single, dual, triple, or quad arm at various angles), mid-mount, pier base, chain hung, and stem hung designs. Optional accessories include a double fuse and holder (FHD), a 120° house side shield (HSS) for improved backlight control, and the fixed dimming resistor board (FDRB) for on-site light level adjustments.
With its combination of historic styling, advanced LED performance, versatile mounting options, and customizable finishes, the S440 XRLED Seville provides a durable, elegant, and adaptable solution for outdoor lighting applications. Backed by a five-year limited warranty, it is built to deliver long-term reliability while enhancing architectural and streetscape environments with timeless beauty.
