Application
The Model 601 is the world's most advanced solar LED (light emitting diode) aviation marking light. Ideal for all types of taxiway, obstruction, apron, barricade and general airfield lighting applications. The 601 installs in minutes and requires no maintenance or servicing for up to five years.
Designed as a cost effective, maintenance-free lighting solution for commercial, Air Force, private and general aviation airfields. The Model 601 is a completely integrated, self-contained unit that does not require any external electrical source or bulb/battery replacement for its entire 5 year lifespan. It is also designed to be extremely durable, waterproof and virtually indestructible.
The Model 601 offers cost-effective performance. Based on an independent cost analysis, they will pay for themselves within their first year of operation - in the form of reduced installation, maintenance and servicing costs.
The Technology
Utilizing an innovative combination of solar power and LED (light emitting diode) technology, the Model 601 charges during the day, even under cloudy conditions.
The Model 601 also features sophisticated microprocessor intelligence that enables advanced light output control and battery power management.
