Obstruction lighting

LED medium intensity red beacon for hazardous areas

Designed for use with FAA Type A lighting configurations, Crouse-Hinds series LED medium intensity red beacons are ideal for towers, stacks, wind turbines and buildings located in hazardous areas.

Precision optics ensure maximum visibility with minimal ground scatter, and long-life LEDs dramatically reduce maintenance costs and non-compliance risks. Each beacon provides 360° coverage and performs reliably in classified areas and extreme environmental conditions.

Reliability
-40°C to +55°C ambient operating temperature
Performance
100,000 hour expected LED life
Protection
NEMA 4X / IP66 rated enclosures
