Beacons
Directional beacons for harbour approaches and passages
A directional beacon provides a defined beam for visual identification of an approach or passage. Vikingegaarden specifies, supplies and commissions MSM MLP2000 and MDL beacons and Tideland Signal RLED-200 lanterns for directional applications.
- Beam selection by approach bearing and coverage
- MSM MLP2000: up to 120° horizontal divergence
- MSM MDL: 10° horizontal divergence

Key features
Application and selection criteria
Directional beacons concentrate light over a specified angular coverage. The marking plan establishes the bearing, colour, flash character and required nominal range.
Power and autonomy
The MLP2000 is rated at 36 W and the MDL at 27 W maximum. The power budget includes the configured output, flash character, operating period and monitoring load; solar and battery capacity require a site calculation.
Equipment documentation
The supplied configuration is identified in the project documentation. Published figures and any applicable certificates are checked against the specified operating conditions.
Monitoring interfaces
Emiko monitoring is specified where supported by the equipment. Available signals, communications and alarm handling are confirmed before supply.
Commissioning record
Commissioning records the installed equipment, settings and functional checks. The handover documentation defines the inspection and maintenance requirements.
Site conditions
Selection accounts for the mounting arrangement, exposure and access for servicing. Site data forms part of the agreed specification.

Technical questions
Specification questions
What determines the installation configuration?
Horizontal and vertical divergence are selected from the approach geometry and mounting height. Commissioning verifies the installed bearing, elevation and coverage against the marking plan.
How is the power budget specified?
The MLP2000 is rated at 36 W and the MDL at 27 W maximum. The power budget includes the configured output, flash character, operating period and monitoring load; solar and battery capacity require a site calculation.
Which approval documents are supplied?
Documentation is confirmed for the selected equipment and application. Vikingegaarden identifies the available manufacturer documents and the requirements stated by the responsible authority.
What is required for a quotation?
The enquiry should include the marking plan, site coordinates, required performance, available power and mounting details. Monitoring, access and maintenance requirements should also be stated.
What does nominal range represent?
Nominal range is the luminous range at atmospheric transmissivity T=0.74. Actual visibility depends on weather, background lighting and observer height; day range is specified separately.
