CARPO DB pole lUminaire: LED lighting for platforms, Tracks and outdoor areas
Sophisticated lighting plays an important role in railway infrastructure – not only for safety, but also for orientation and a comfortable surroundings. Pole luminaires deliver even, glare-free lighting across platforms, parking lots and walkways. Whether installed at major transport nodes or outlying stops, they provide reliable orientation, strengthen the sense of security among travelers, raise the quality of the surroundings, and align with sustainable operation strategies. At the same time, they are required to meet the highest standards of light distribution, durability, and serviceability – key to reliable day-to-day railway operations.
NORKA meets these exacting demands with the specially developed CARPO DB pole luminaire. It was designed to meet the high demands of rail and public transport. Thanks to it's long-life LED technology, it offers a sustainable lighting solution for platforms, parking lots and other traffic areas. With an impact resistance class of IK 08 CARPO DB stands for high resilience – a key factor for use in outdoor areas and transport infrastructure. The light distribution curve specially tailored to the requirements of Deutsche Bahn (German Railway) enables energy-efficient platform illumination with minimal light pollution.
The CARPO DB also actively contributes to reducing the carbon footprint. The modular design allows the targeted replacement of individual components – without having to replace the entire luminaire. This extends the service life, reduces maintenance costs and saves resources. Choose future-proof LED pole luminaires from NORKA for safe, sustainable, and high-performance outdoor lighting.

CARPO DB - optimized light distribution for platforms
The light distribution curve (LDC) is a key tool in lighting technology. It describes the light distribution of a light source and plays a decisive role in targeted and energy-efficient lighting design. In this context, the accumulated utility also plays an important role – it evaluates the suitability of a luminaire for illuminating a defined area in terms of efficiency and scattered light.
When it comes to selecting the right products, project planners and decision-makers should pay attention to aspects such as energy efficiency, weather resistance, maintenance requirements and the integration of the luminaires into their surroundings. A well-thought-out selection ensures functional and aesthetic lighting that delivers high efficiency and low operating costs in the long term.
The light distribution of CARPO DB is optimized for use on uncovered platforms. Among other things, the targeted light control prevents the train driver from being dazzled. At the same time, it helps to reduce the risk of passers by accidentally stepping onto the tracks.
Thanks to its full cut-off design and horizontal light emitting surface, CARPO DB prevents light spill to the sky and achieves maximum photometric efficiency. Thanks to its optimized accumulated luminous efficacy, which can be described as a major contribution to environmental and insect protection.
Interaction between the light distribution curve and accumulated utilization in lighting design
An optimum lighting solution is the result of the interplay between the light distribution curve and the accumulated utility. Simply looking at light distribution is not enough – only an analysis of the amount of light effectively used enables sustainable and energy-efficient lighting design.
Efficiency starts with planning
Light scattering, light pollution, glare or unnecessarily high energy consumption can be avoided if the right parameters are taken into account at the planning stage. This is why NORKA actively supports customers in lighting design – with technical expertise, many years of experience and a clear goal: customized lighting solutions that are used exactly where they are needed.
