Latest Innovation in Dialight's Obstruction Line Delivers
Reliable Performance with CE, CASA & RCM Certification for
International Applications
FARMINGDALE, New Jersey,
March 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/
-- Dialight (LSE:DIA), the global leader in industrial LED
lighting technology, today launched its new Vigilant® Medium
Intensity LED Obstruction Beacon, now with full-system CE, CASA and
RCM certifications to meet global aviation standards.
This latest addition in Dialight's proven-dependable LED
obstruction family builds on 17 years of innovation to provide
long-lasting protection for towers, antennas and other all
structures. With its upgraded flash head, patented optics,
purpose-built electronics and new cast enclosure, the Medium
Intensity Beacon, available in red, white or dual red and white,
offers reliable performance that dramatically reduces maintenance
costs and non-compliance risk. The product is covered by Dialight's
industry-leading 5-year warranty.
One of the most widely certified obstruction systems of its kind
on the market, Dialight's Medium Intensity Beacon meets Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA), Transport Canada and International
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) specifications. This enables
multinational companies to streamline procurement by purchasing
long-lasting obstruction solutions from a single supplier for
international deployment.
The new system leverages Dialight's long-standing patented
optics design that maximizes aviation visibility and safety, while
reducing ground scatter and neighborhood disturbance. It's
fully-redesigned cast enclosure also includes:
- A new interior panel that hides wiring, enabling access to the
display for diagnostics without interrupting power to the
system
- More room for wiring connections and ground bonding
- The option to integrate the INEM remote monitoring and control
system
- Padlock provisions and toolless entry
- NEMA 4X and IP66 ratings
- Copper-free, marine grade, modified A-360 aluminum
construction
- Powder coating for additional resistance to environmental
conditions
For enhanced durability, the product also features a new
accessory - an integrated ice shield with a hinged-top design that
allows easy access to the beacon yet withstands up to 150 pounds of
impact force. The galvanized shield mounts easily and quickly to
existing hardware and sits closer to the beacon to prevent bird
nesting and reduced wind loading. The shield provides greater
protection with minimal impact on strobe visibility, allowing for
over 300-degrees of visible light.
Since 2001, Dialight has been the first company to achieve FAA
certification for LED obstruction lighting. The launch of the
Vigilant Medium Intensity with CE certification is part of
Dialight's 80-year legacy of innovation and sustainability.
