The HIOLA-M1_23SxT is a high-intensity white obstruction light designed to comply with ICAO Type A requirements for marking obstacles that pose a hazard to aviation. Suitable for use during the day, twilight, and night, this beacon is ideal for marking tall structures such as buildings, chimneys, cranes, telecommunication towers, water towers, and cooling towers. Its powerful white flashing output ensures visibility in all lighting conditions, with luminous intensities reaching 200,000 candela during the day, 20,000 candela at twilight, and 2,000 candela at night. The flash rate is configurable between 20 to 60 flashes per minute, meeting global aviation safety standards for obstacle lighting.
Built around a modular design, the HIOLA-M1_23SxT features four LED projector modules housed in a robust anodized aluminum body, offering exceptional corrosion resistance and mechanical durability. Its construction not only ensures high performance in harsh environments but also enables a compact form factor with a minimal wind profile. The system supports plug-and-play installation, greatly simplifying deployment on complex structures. The light delivers outstanding longevity with a maintenance-free service life of up to 100,000 hours and can operate reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +55°C.
From an electrical standpoint, the fixture accepts a wide input voltage range of 110–230 Vac. It is remarkably energy-efficient, consuming an average of just 70 watts in day mode at a 40 fpm flash rate, with a peak power draw of 840 watts. This efficiency is further supported by precision flash timing and optimized LED drive circuitry, minimizing power usage without compromising visibility.
The HIOLA-M1_23SxT can be used as a stand-alone obstruction light or as part of a coordinated multi-light system. When used in group configurations, the beacon supports GPS-based flash synchronization, ensuring uniform signaling across all units. Advanced management options include remote monitoring and control through the Telemetry© system, as well as easy access for service operations via the Retractable© maintenance system.
Fully compliant with ICAO Annex 14, Volume I, Chapter 6 for high-intensity Type A obstacle lights, the HIOLA-M1_23SxT is designed and manufactured in Italy to the highest standards of quality and reliability. With its rugged design, ease of installation, and suite of intelligent features, it provides a highly dependable lighting solution for aviation hazard marking on the tallest and most critical structures.
