L-864/L-865 LED medium intensity flashing dual red/white beacon with infrared (IR)

Obstruction lighting

Crouse-Hinds series L-864/L-865 LED medium intensity beacons are designed for use with FAA Type D and E lighting configurations. The flashing white/red beacons also incorporate infrared LEDs in a single unit to ensure visibility around military bases, airfield perimeters, buildings, towers and other obstructions to aircraft pilots, both during normal flights and when aided by night vision systems.

These white/red IR beacons are ideal for towers, stacks, wind turbines and buildings in industrial settings.

Precision optics ensure maximum visibility with minimal ground scatter, and long-life LEDs dramatically reduce maintenance costs and non-compliance risks.

Our beacons are ETL certified to FAA requirements and compliant to ICAO and Transport Canada standards.
