Rotating Beacons are ideal for various applications and are a great alternative to flashing or static warning signals.
Applications include vehicles, such as trucks and forklifts, fire and security systems, and areaโs where an audible warning might be difficult to hear.
There are three types of rotating beacons:
- The first type is a filament lamp rotating mirror beacon. However due to global unavailability of filament lamps, these types of beacons are now becoming obsolete. Environmental factors have influenced the electronics market, pushing the use of LEDโs in technology over filament lamps.
- The next type is an LED rotating mirror beacon. Whilst this is a high-priced option in comparison to the filament lamp model, this beacon has a low power consumption with a high light output. The use of LEDโs make this a long life unit therefore it is ideal for more regular use with less maintenance required. This unit works by using an angled mirror style reflector onto a cluster of LEDโs. The spinning mirror reflects the light, creating a multi-directional beam of light.
- Lastly is an LED simulated rotating beacon. This one has no moving parts, just sticks of LEDโs that light up in a sequence to create the effect of a moving light. Again, by having LEDโs this has a long life and low power consumption. Removing the mirror lets this beacon fit into a smaller housing, expanding the range of applications it can serve.
