Signal light tower
IDEC Electronics has launched a signal light tower with an oval design.
The stackable light-emitting-diode (LED) modules ensure that the colour arrangement can be altered by either interchanging them or adding additional colours.
Each LED module has a lens that combines the different properties of diffusing and condensing lenses, ensuring that high-visibility super-bright illumination is provided to the user.
Light guides are also incorporated into the lens design, which enhances visibility when the signal light tower is viewed from below.
The tower can consist of a maximum of five tiers and is created using the standard colours of red, yellow, blue, green or pure white.
There are four different frame-mounting base styles available, designed for fixing directly to an aluminium machine frame.
A wall-mount version is also available.
Both are mounted at 90 degrees.
The more traditional direct-mount version is for fixing directly to the top of the machine or control console.
A pole-mount version is also available.
The signal light tower has an ingress protection rating of IP65, allowing for use in many applications and environments.
The supply voltage is 24VAC/VDC.
