Caseville Harbor Light

Tideland's ML-155 MaxLumina ® marine signal lantern is used in thousands of installations worldwide to mark buoys, offshore structures, channels, bridges, barges and docks. It was the lens of choice for the Caseville Harbor Light.

Quality Construction

With it's simple design and sturdy construction, the acrylic fresnel lens and hinge are formed from a single piece injection molding incorporating 38 optical elements. The lens transmits more light in the horizontal plane — and throughout the 360^o azimuth—than a 200 mm pressed glass lens. The lens attaches to the base through an integral hinge and six-point fasteners, providing easy access to the interior. A molded, watertight lens-to-base seal effectively weather-proofs the interior of the lantern.

Flasher/Lampchangers

The ML-155 uses standard marine lamps and accommodates most flasher/lampchangers, including Tideland's TF-3B MicroPower OMNIBUS ® II six-place flasher/lampchanger.

The TF-3B MicroPower OMNIBUS II flasher/lampchanger operates on 9 to 36 VDC and flashes single-contact prefocused marine lamps to any of 256 user-selectable codes. It contains the OMNIBUS II flasher/timer card, a general light beacon controller and functions as a simple timer as well as a fully functional flasher/timer circuit. As a simple timer, it is capable of generating a flash code signal and supports a synchronisation of the flash code with other similar units. As a flasher/timer, it replaces the standard MicroPower OMNIBUS and Syncrostat ™ controller with additional functionality such as built-in solar charge regulator, Lamp Power Control and external monitoring and control via Tideland's NavLink ® system.
