Be even safer at sea with the new LED blue navigation light!
The new LED blue navigation light from Aqua Signal is based on the Series 60 LED navigation lighting. Navigation lights are all about safety. Glamox has developed Series 60 to make worries about failing lanterns redundant.
Long working life
The series is designed for a working life of 100,000 hours at an ambient temperature of +45°C. That is twice as long as the working life of most of its competitors. To achieve such a long working life, the design must be robust and all components must be of high quality. It consists of a high-quality LED driver and driver technology and the use of materials that can withstand rough weather and changing temperatures, such as seawater-resistant aluminium, polycarbonate and toughened glass. The system working life of the LED light source and driver is 11 years of continuous runtime, 24 hours per day at an ambient temperature of +45°C.
Integrated countdown
You don't want to risk a lantern reaching the end of its life or failing while you are out at sea. That is why the Series 60 is equipped with a countdown system that tells you when it is time to replace the navigation light. In order to protect the system against tampering, the timer is integrated into each lantern, while the message is sent to and displayed on the control panel. The system shows the usage of the lantern, and indicates if it has been exposed to cold temperatures or rough weather, as well as conditions with less wear and tear. The system offers extra safety for the vessel.
Low EMC values
There are strict electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for lanterns that are installed close to the VHF aerial. These Series 60 lanterns have a low emission level and have been tested and meet the emission and immunity requirements of IEC 60945.
A flexible choice
Series 60 has been designed to work with the Aqua Signal Navigation lighting control panel, but the lamps offer a great deal of flexibility since they can also be controlled by third party panels (1). The products are easy to install, are secured with just four bolts, while the internal junction box leaves plenty of room for the connecting wires. It can be installed upside down.
(1) Compatibility must be confirmed by the control panel supplier.
