The Mega-Guard Navigation Light Control System (NLCS)
controls up to 12 navigation lamps. The system has two
outputs for each navigation lamp: a Main lamp output and a
Spare lamp output. Each navigation lamp has its own on/off
pushbutton. A number of navigation lamps can be grouped
together (e.g. free sailing, towing) for simultaneous on/off
control.
Two versions of the Mega-Guard Navigation Light Control
System are available to support the following lamp types:
●
Bulb lamps; 19~32VDC ; maximum 60W.
●
LED lamps; 19~32VDC ; maximum 60W.
The lamps are continuously monitored for failures and the
Spare lamp is automatically activated in case of failure of the
Main lamp.
The Navigation Light Control System is connected
to a main and back-up supply and switches automatically to
the back-up supply in case of failure of the main supply.
A colour text sheet with a representation of the lay-out of the
navigation mast is inserted in the front of the Navigation Light
Control System in order to get a realistic on/off control of the
navigation lamps.
