The PL350H lantern is a development of the popular PL350 lantern series with increased range now reaching up to 16NM.

  • Same proven rugged construction as other PL350 lanterns, designed to withstand Baltic winters without need of protective ice dome.
  • Available with up to 7 tiers of LED's in one unit to suit the viewing range required.
  • Low maintenance, with up to 10 years unattended service.
  • More power efficient than equivalent filament lanterns, allowing solar power where not previously practical or cost effective, or longer ranges for the same power consumption.
  • Unlike filament lamps, the electrical contact time is equal to the flash length. Similarly, no reduction need be applied for filter losses when a coloured light is required.
  • Can interface to WEBSCADA System. This enables connection to Satellite, Radio, or GSM monitoring systems.
