Designed to provide highly reliable
subsystem, the Flasher E862 uses the latest surface mount and microcontroller
technology to provide a compact, Eurocard device incorporating several
new features needed for remote monitoring and control. Functionally it
is fully compatible with the flasher E863.
E862 flasher units can be used for
switching both filament lamp or LED lanterns, and for sending of diagnostic
and emergency messages via local area network (LAN). The flasher utilises
Pulse With Modulation to achieve a very high degree of regulation of the
effective voltage of the lantern.
The E862 flasher provides the user
with a convinient setting up using a service computer device that may be
used in both stand alone and system applications. Special care has been
taken to minimise the power consumption in the idle state which is essential
when using the flasher in primary battery powered buoys. In case of application
in hard environmental conditions, the E862 flasher must be put into a hermetic
enclosure.
Features
-
Programmable automatic control of flashing
-
Daylight-dependent switching ON and OFF
of the flashing mode by a photosensor and sending the actual switching
time messages to the monitoring and control centre
-
Precision effective voltage regulated
filament output
-
Lampchanger or twin filament or LED-lantern
operation
-
Autosynchronisation by internal clock/calendar
to be adjusted either by a GPS receiver, or by any other flasher within
the control and monitoring system
-
Built-in monitoring and control LAN interface
for the communication with other units
-
Sending diagnostic and emergency messages
to the monitoring and control centre via LAN and the communication controller
-
Simple setting up and programming using
a service computer
