The PL85 marine lantern has been designed by Pelangi as a buoy or beacon lantern for short to medium ranges.

  • Wide divergence lens will adequately compensate for buoy roll in heavy sea conditions or where the buoy is positioned in strong currents.
  • Polycarbonate or acrylic lenses available.
  • Ideal electrical replacement for acetylene powered buoy lights with wide divergence.
  • When used as a marine beacon it can be mounted at a convenient height and not necessarily in line with a ship's bridge, as with narrow divergence lanterns.
  • The base is a one piece marine grade LM25 aluminium casting with 7 hole fixings to interchange with customers' existing lanterns with 3 or 4 hole centres.
  • Choice of flashers: EasyFlash or EasyFlash communicator for synchronised radio control or C-R, APS, ELCO-12 or APF 247P units for interchangeability.
  • One M20 cable gland provided when using the internal photo-cell or an extra entry if an external cell is desired.
  • The lens is coloured to the IALA chromasticity co-ordinates and screws into the base with an 'O' ring seal to IP66 standard.
  • All internal brackets are stainless steel with a brass nickel plated B22d lampholder to take the standard range of twin-filament lamps up to 60 watts.
