Coastal light station
A coastal station combines a navigation light, racon, mast and monitored power supply.
Commissioning verifies the status, alarms and controls supported by each connected instrument.
The components
Equipment
and interfaces
6 components with specified functions.
The labels identify their Emiko integration.
- 01Structure
Lattice masts
GMR lattice mast, 2 to 24 m
Supports the light and racon on a designed foundation; eight single-piece sizes to 15 m, joined sections to 24 m.
Product page - 02Monitored through NaviGuard
Sector lights
MSM MBL 400S with MF12
Provides surveyed colour sectors; the specified MBL/MF12 profile connects through NaviGuard.
Product page - 03No telemetry
Sector lights
Sabik ODSL HI, Gjögur optic
Retains the installed Gjögur sector-light choice; new supply and any monitoring interface require confirmation.
Product page - 04No telemetry
Radar beacons
AMG HEKLEO 2 XS racon
Provides X- and S-band racon identification from an external supply; no racon telemetry is included.
Product page - 05Full Emiko integration
PowerGuard
PowerGuard supply
Supplies the calculated load from battery and optional solar charging; reports its own status and alarms to Emiko.

NaviGuard
NaviGuard controller
Connects the specified serial profile or PowerMonitor current sensing to Emiko.

How it works
From the plan to the
commissioned installation
The marking plan defines the optical and radar requirements. Site calculations establish mounting and power.
- 01
Define requirements
The marking plan defines sector bearings, colours, nominal range and the racon identifier; the sector optics are selected.
- 02
Specify structure
Light elevation, sight lines, equipment loads and ground conditions determine the mast and foundation.
- 03
Calculate power
The energy calculation includes the light, racon and communications load, seasonal solar input and required autonomy.
- 04
Install equipment
The foundation, mast, selected optic, racon and power equipment are installed with specified cabling and protection.
- 05
Verify operation
Commissioning records alignment, racon response, power operation and supported Emiko signals.
Where it is used
Coastal station installation sites
Coastal authorities and harbour operators specifying replacement stations or new fixed aids to navigation.
- 01
Replacement of a damaged or obsolete coastal station
- 02
An island or headland with limited access to mains power
- 03
A coastal route requiring an additional fixed navigation light
In service
Gjögur Lighthouse, Iceland
The Gjögur replacement project for the Iceland Road and Coastal Administration combines a 24 m mast, Sabik ODSL HI sector light and HEKLEO 2 XS racon. The published report records a range up to 14 NM and at least 96 hours of UPS backup for the defined load, with a 360 Ah battery bank and solar backup.

Good to know
Before the
quotation
What is required for a station quotation?
The enquiry requires a chart, site coordinates, marking plan, required nominal range, mounting elevation and available power. Ground conditions, access, required autonomy and monitoring functions should be included.
Can the station operate without mains power?
Solar and battery supply can be specified after a site energy calculation. Required autonomy depends on the connected load and seasonal charging conditions. The Gjögur backup figure applies to that project's defined load.
Which functions are available in Emiko?
NaviGuard provides the functions of the specified MBL/MF12 profile. PowerGuard reports its own supply status. No ODSL HI or racon telemetry is assumed; a documented interface and acceptance test are required before adding either.
