New dual flashing beacon will consign Xenon tubes to history

Dialight launches all LED L-864/L-865 Flashing Dual (White/Red) Strobe that is not only ETL certified to FAA requirements and compliant to ICAO and DGAC standards, but is also by far the smallest on the market.

Applied LED technology specialist, Dialight, has introduced an industry first with its ETL certified, all LED, dual flashing strobe designed to suit structures requiring medium intensity L-864/L-865 dual lighting systems. The LED dual strobe has been designed to replace Xenon technology that typically only lasts up to two years. The LED dual strobe comes with a 5-year complete performance warranty and is completely sealed which means it is likely to exceed a 10-year life expectancy, thereby vastly reducing the need for maintenance and associated expensive tower climbs. Maintenance is made even easier as the power supply/control box can be located at the base of the tower or up to 160 meters from the light engine and is the industry’s first power drive module equipped with full diagnostics routines for quick fault finding. At around 20 Kg and less than 31cm high, Dialight’s LED dual strobe is half the size of the Xenon equivalent and by far the smallest on the market, offering significant reduction in wind loading. State-of-the-art, high flux LED technology has been designed into the dual strobe making it resistant to shock and vibration and with no power supply components in the flash head, RF interference is eliminated. Both of these issues have been common problems when using Xenon technology. Dialight’s dual flashing strobe is designed to use low voltage flexible cable, eliminating the need to send high voltage up the structure, whilst saving on power consumption. It also has lightning protection tested up to 2MV/10kA and operates at temperatures from -40°C to +55°C. The environmentally friendly all LED dual strobe uses Dialight’s highly precise patent pending optics to achieve minimum ground scatter and contains no harmful waste material. This product is available now through Dialight’s worldwide network of distributors.
