High focal plane Resilient Beacon with sectioned rotationally moulded float for easy assembly and installation on site.

  • The RB2100 provides a very accurate way of marking a particular point in a channel, canal or harbour entrance, especially when compared to the traditional buoy, chain and sinker mooring system.
  • RB2100 Beacon provides the advantage of having a considerably higher focal plane than a buoy using the same float diameter.
  • Underwater float ensures good vertical stability enabling narrow divergence lanterns usually used for shore stations to be employed with savings in power.
  • All steelwork is shotblasted, galvanised and painted.
  • Since RB2100 does not employ mooring chain, it removes the need for regular chain replacement. The stability on the platform allows easy installation and maintenance of extra instrumentation.
  • Overall length of the RB2100 is dependent on depth of water and customer specification and can vary from 15 metres up to a maximum of 40 metres.
  • All Pelangi International Ltd lanterns and solar systems are compatible with our RB2100, along with a complete range of topmarks.
