US Coast Guard Approves Sealite SL125 LED Marine Lantern

The US Coast Guard has approved the Sealite SL125 LED marine lantern for use on USCG fixed and floating aids, as a direct replacement for the 155mm lantern with incandescent lamps.

The SL125 lantern is available with up to 4 tiers of LEDs, and offers an immediate retrofit to traditional incandescent lanterns.

Completely sealed, the SL125 has been rated IP68 for complete water immersion, and is one of the most popular and advanced LED marine lanterns on the market. Utilizing the latest software and microcircuitry developments, the lantern is lightweight and boasts a huge number of features including flash-memory and the most efficient power conversion available.

Up to 4 tiers of 36 LEDs are available to increase the light intensity of the unit, and each LED tier utilizes the Sealite patented omnidirectional LED Reflector to increase the intensity and uniformity of the horizontal output.

Sealite Business Development Manager, Mr Dana Galbraith, commented “we really appreciate the vote of confidence from the USCG - which has the challenging role of servicing some 49,000 fixed & floating AtoNs. And we firmly believe that the SL125 lantern represents the best value in the marketplace for this type of navigation aid”.

For U.S. Government clients the SL125 lantern is available through GSA Contract #GS-07F-6000R. Fast-turnaround and emergency relief stock is available from Sealite USA / Watermark Navigation Systems on (toll-free) 1-888-628-2869, or contact Peter Ellis at pbe@navbuoy.com
