(54)	Modular emitter device and manufacturing method thereof

(57) A modular emitter device that can be applied to lamps and similar products, comprising at least a source (2) emitting electromagnetic radiations provided with at least one LED and a lens associated to the same LED, support means (3) of the emitting source (2), an optical concentrator (8) for the emitting source (2), feeding means (7) of the emitting source (2) and is characterized in that the support means (3) comprise a covering element (6) making one piece with the optical concentrator (8). The emitting source (2) and the feeding means (7) are at least partially embedded inside the covering element (6) in order to make the device (1) substantially waterproof. The absence of electrical parts in direct contact with the outside makes the device substantially waterproof and allows using it in wet and humid environments or immersed into tanks of various kinds, such as swimming pools or aquaria.
