The truss pole refers to street lamps of the "Pastorałka" type, but in an industrial, modern form. The bold design makes this pole suitable for installation in modern housing estates, near modern office buildings or other representative spaces - with a modern form. The pole is equipped with a sheet metal frame with space for standard rectangular LED street lighting modules. The type of module is left to the investor to choose - the pole will be prepared for the specified module (cutting and hole spacing). The installation and commissioning of the luminaire can be entrusted to AluPro. It is possible to order a visualization of the pole with the frame of your choice - we provide 3D files for the needs of architectural office renderings. Suggested foundation – concrete block 0.8×0.5×1.2 meters + glued M12 pins (chemical anchor). The power supply for the lamp can be supplied through the truss curb pipe.

Applications of the PB550 Pole
The PB550 light pole is a 5.5-meter aluminum lattice structure with a luminaire positioned perpendicular to the illuminated area (90°). Its design is reminiscent of the “Pastorałka” streetlight, but with a straight beam instead of an arch—which provides a more photometrically efficient light distribution directly beneath the pole and over the immediate area of the parking lot or plaza.
- Parking lots and parking spaces – The 90° beam angle produces a higher luminous flux in the vertical direction; higher luminance directly beneath the pole—which is crucial for areas monitored by CCTV cameras.
- Platforms and stops – The vertical orientation of the fixture minimizes glare for passengers standing near the pole.
- Work and storage areas – high illuminance at the critical point (under the pole) without lateral spill.
- Modern residential complexes and office buildings – A “pastoral” style in an industrial aluminum design; the lightweight structure (43 kg) makes installation easier.
Key technical features
- Mounting angle: 90° (perpendicular to the surface) – maximum photometric efficiency in the vertical axis; lower losses due to lateral scattering compared to the PS550.
- Triangular cross-section, 300×400 mm – higher torsional stiffness than a square truss; resistance to overturning moments caused by crosswinds.
- Weight: 43 kg · aW6082 Aluminum – 10 kg lighter than the PS550 thanks to the shorter boom; easier to install with two people.
- Slot for a street LED module – a metal housing with a cutout tailored to the rectangular LED module selected by the investor.
- Flange, 126 Mm diameter · 3 holes – standard spacing compatible with typical 5–6 m pole foundations.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
When should you choose the PB550, and when should you choose the PS550?
The PB550 (90° beam angle) is ideal for areas where high luminance is required directly beneath the pole: parking lots, maneuvering areas, and train platforms. The PS550 (30° beam angle) provides better illumination for long stretches of roadways and sidewalks. It is advisable to make this decision after consulting the photometric design.
How do I install the lighting module on the PB550?
Please specify the manufacturer and model of your chosen LED fixture when placing your order—AluPro will prepare the cutout and hole spacing in the sheet metal to fit that specific module. You can also request a 3D visualization featuring your chosen fixture.
Is it possible to paint it other colors?
Yes—the standard finish is bare aluminum. RAL powder coating in any color is available for an additional fee (190 PLN). The base aluminum does not require a protective coating.
