The LIOLB-E1xxD is a high-reliability, explosion-proof low intensity red obstruction light designed to meet ICAO Type B standards for night-time marking of aviation hazards. Engineered in Italy, this double-beacon unit includes both a main and stand-by light source to ensure redundancy and continuous performance. It is ideal for use on structures such as flare stacks, chimneys, cranes, storage tanks, and offshore platforms that may pose a risk to aviation safety during low-light conditions. Emitting a red steady light with intensity greater than 32.5 candelas, the LIOLB-E1xxD complies with the CIE Chromaticity Boundary, making it suitable for critical infrastructure requiring aviation obstruction marking during nighttime operations.
Constructed with durability in mind, the body of the LIOLB-E1xxD is made from corrosion-resistant, copper-free die-cast aluminum alloy, while the transparent cap is crafted from robust glass, ensuring high resistance to environmental degradation. The unit is built to withstand harsh conditions, offering a wide operational temperature range from -20°C to +60°C and features an ultra-low wind factor and 360° horizontal visibility. With no maintenance required over a service life of up to 100,000 hours, it delivers dependable, long-lasting performance in even the most demanding settings.
This obstruction light boasts extremely low power consumption—just 4 + 4 W for DC and 5.5 + 5.5 W for AC power sources. It supports a broad input voltage range, from 10 to 60 VDC and 110 to 230 VAC, providing flexible installation options across a variety of sites. Installation is simple and efficient thanks to its plug-and-play connection system, allowing for quick deployment without the need for specialized tools or procedures.
The LIOLB-E1xxD is also adaptable to advanced infrastructure setups. It can function as a standalone beacon or be integrated into a multi-light system using a control board. Optional upgrades include compatibility with the Telemetry© system for remote monitoring and management, as well as the Retractable© system for simplified maintenance access, further enhancing its utility for large-scale or hard-to-reach installations.
Certified to meet rigorous global safety and aviation standards, the LIOLB-E1xxD is compliant with ICAO Annex 14 Volume I, Chapter 6 as a Type B low-intensity obstacle light, and with FAA AC 150/5345-43 as a Type L-810 fixture. It also meets explosion-proof standards under ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU and the IECEx framework, and carries EAC certification for operation in explosive environments under CU TR 012/2011 regulations. This comprehensive certification profile ensures its suitability for use in hazardous locations worldwide where compliance and safety are non-negotiable.
