StrobeGuard Description
The StrobeGuard High Intensity Strobe Lighting System consists of multiple flashheads controlled by a single lighting control. The quantity and location of flashheads used is generally determined by the structure's height and diameter. The StrobeGuard lighting control constantly monitors the operation of each flashhead, and provides alarm contact closure upon any failure. The control automatically switches between day, twilight, and night intensities by the use of a calibrated photocell. StrobeGuard flashheads incorporate a louver system to minimize ground scatter light, resulting in a "community friendly" lighting system. The StrobeGuard system can be combined with a red lighting system for areas where white lighting at night may be undesirable.

Application
High Intensity obstruction lighting systems are typically used on structures taller than 500' (150M) above ground level to provide aviation safety. The use of a high intensity lighting system typically eliminates the need to paint the structure with aviation red and white stripes. Honeywell high intensity obstruction lights are designed for lighting tall structures such as television and radio towers, chimneys, cooling towers, tall buildings, catenary river crossings and bridges.

StrobeGuard Control
StrobeGuard Controls contain the flash interval and timing circuits, intensity selection controls, and monitoring circuitry with status indicators. The StrobeGuard control is designed to operate up to 24 flashheads at a distance of up to 2500 feet (760 M), using a noise-resistant communications format. Each control is equipped with the necessary manually operated controls to test all modes of operation. Bi-color green/red LEDs are provided to indicate proper operation or fault of each flashhead.

StrobeGuard SGF-60E Flashhead
Each StrobeGuard Flashhead contains a flashtube, reflector assembly, power supply and trigger circuitry in a single enclosure. All circuit boards are the plug-in type, and are protected with a coating that meets the physical and electrical requirements of MIL-I-46058B. StrobeGuard Flashheads are supplied with lightning arrestors capable of withstanding repeated 10,000-ampere current surges. The flashheads utilize an internally triggered strobetube that eliminates ozone, a corrosive agent that can damage wiring and circuitry over time.
