Installing the Control Box for Bollard

Installing the Control Box for Bollard

The Bollard package includes a control box, which must be installed outside the bollard at a minimum height of 200mm above ground. The control box connects to the bollard via a 6-meter cable.

Here’s how the cable setup works:

  • Connection Points: One end of the cable is connected to the bottom of the bollard, while the other end connects to the control box.
  • Cable Placement: Approximately 1.5 meters of the cable will be buried underground, leaving around 4.5 meters of cable available for above-ground use.

For a clearer understanding of the installation, refer to the diagram below:



The control box includes a small plastic box attached to it, which houses a photo sensor. This sensor detects whether it is day or night and sends this information to the control box, allowing the bollard to automatically turn its LED lights on or off.

Important Note:
By default, this feature is disabled during production, meaning the LED lights remain on at all times.

Below is an image showing the photo sensor attached to the control box:
