TRIDENT-2600

The TRIDENT-2600 is one of the largest rotationally-moulded buoys available, with a float diameter of 2.6 meters and lantern focal height of up to 5 meters

TRIDENT-3000

The Trident-3000 is one of the largest, rotationally-moulded buoys available, with a float diameter of 3 meters and lantern focal height of up to 5 meters

Port Entry Lighting (PEL)

SL-PEL-5

SL-PEL-10

The Sealite Port Entry Light (PEL) is a low-powered, high-intensity precision sector light, suitable for day or night-time use.

High Precision, Long Range LED Optics

Providing over 120,000cd (10o Model) and over 500,000cd (5o Model) at 30 watts, the Sealite PEL is extraordinarily efficient and ideal for solar power systems. The light is designed to suit high-precision sector applications and provides a measured changeover between colour sectors of typically one minute of arc.

Robust, with Ultra-Low Power Consumption

The Sealite PEL is extremely robust and of high-quality construction. The unit is built from CNC machined marine grade aluminium alloy, subject to 7-stage powder coating. The IP67 rated enclosure with anti-reflection coated achromatic lenses offers maximum resistance to weather.

AIS & GSM Ready

The Sealite PEL comes ready for interfacing with Sealite Type 1 or Type 3 AIS solutions, to allow port operators convenient remote monitoring of the unit via AIS message 6. In addition, important AIS message 21 information such as the name, type, and position of the navigation aid may be broadcast to mariners within the region.

GSM monitoring facilities also allow the light to be remotely monitored and controlled by maintenance personnel through their cellular phones or web portal.

Sealite’s PEL also has alarm relay contacts for remote monitoring to alert to fault conditions.

Mooring

Synthetic Mooring

Sealite’s synthetic mooring solutions provide a lightweight and environmentally sensitive alternative to traditional mooring chain and are ideal for many marine mooring applications. Unlike chain, the synthetic mooring solution minimises damage to the sea bed whilst the smooth stretch of the unique nylon core absorbs shock loads in the wave and tidal conditions of the marine environment. These unique mooring solutions are a perfect complement to Sealite’s complete range of mooring and navigation buoys and can be used in many applications as a chain replacement.
