Product Overview

HL‑SML185 is a high‑performance compact solar‑powered marine navigation lantern, designed as aids to navigation(AtoN) for offshore buoys, river channels, marina entrances and aquaculture zones. Unique six‑panel angled solar array tracks sunlight, ensuring stable operation even under poor solar irradiance conditions. It meets US Coast Guard 33 CFR Part 66 / Part67 Class‑C requirements and complies with IALA E‑200‑1 signal color standards. Built‑in high‑grade lithium‑ion battery, auto photocell dusk‑dawn switch, no manual operation required.

Key Features

  1. Superior Optical Performance: >4NM visible range,360° horizontal output,10° vertical divergence; high‑brightness integrated LED source with lifespan >100,000 hours; multi‑color optional: red, green, yellow, blue, white.
  2. Optimized Solar Harvest: 6pcs angled high‑efficiency solar modules (total 18W), maximize sunlight absorption for low‑sunshine area performance.
  3. Optional GPS Synchronization: Internal GPS module makes multiple lanterns flash synchronously, easy to distinguish from background light, perfect for waterway marking projects.
  4. Flexible Configuration: Larger capacity lithium‑ion battery pack(7Ah/12Ah/20Ah) for extended autonomy; optional 4G remote control & external photocell switch.
  5. Rich Flash Modes: Supports up to 256 IALA‑recommended flash characteristics, multiple intensity adjustment options.
  6. Robust Marine‑grade Construction: IP66 ingress protection. UV‑stabilized polycarbonate lens; ABS housing with maritime‑grade aluminum alloy base; working temperature‑40℃ ~ +60℃, adapts harsh offshore salt‑spray environment.
  7. Fast Installation: Complete unit, install within minutes; 195mm bolt mounting pattern for standard buoy fitting.
  8. Reliable Autonomy: >15‑day continuous working autonomy under 14‑hour darkness &12.5% duty‑cycle condition; integrated circuit protection function.
