Overview
Navigation Lights indicate the size of the ship, angle, direction of travel and whether the ship is anchored. As these navigation lights are critical to safety, it is necessary to monitor the filament of the lamps to ensure they are functioning correctly.
The NAV1560 Navigation Light Panel is able to control and monitor both AC and DC navigation lamps and can be customised to suit marine vessels of any type and size.
The NAV1560 consists of a mimic panel and a main panel. The mimic panel allows the user to monitor lamp status/faults as well as to turn on/off the navigation lights. The control panel contains the monitoring modules, fuses and connectors.
Features
- Highly reliable operation
- Customisable mimic panel with flush/bulkhead mouting option
- Compatible with both AC and DC lamps (15 to 60 watts)
- Filament monitoring with audio and visual alarm on lamp failure
- Two-Tier light system for critical navigational lights
- Dual power supply (Main/Emergency) with status indicator LEDs and alarm
- All internal wiring are well labeled and are UL-1007 compliant (80 degC, 300V)
- Dimmer, lamp test and buzzer stop functions
- Easily replaceable monitoring modules (NAV1560-AC/NAV1560-DC)
Operation
When the user switches on a navigation light using the switches on the mimic panel, power is supplied to the monitoring module and the navigation lamp. The monitoring module (NAV1560-AC/NAV1560-DC) senses the amount of current drawn by the lamp to determine if the bulb filament is intact or blown. If the lamp is functioning properly, the corresponding LED on the mimic panel will illuminate. Otherwise, the corresponding LED will begin flashing and the buzzer will sound to indicate a fault. The user can press the buzzer silence button to acknowledge the fault and mute the buzzer until the next fault is detected. The LED will continue flashing to indicate a fault until the lamp has been replaced or turned off.
