The INDO BLUE and CLUE are INDO\u2019s latest LED direct lamp retrofit, purpose-designed for Belisha Beacons. Energy consumption is very low with a circuit wattage of just 6W creating a highly conspicuous light output.<\/p>\n
The units also offer market-leading service lifetime that\u2019s set purely by the lifetime of the LEDs themselves. Financially, payback periods of less than two years are typical. As you\u2019d expect, the BLUE and CLUE make use of INDO\u2019s unique Direct Drive\u00ae circuit, meaning unreliable capacitors have been removed from the circuit, drastically reducing lamp maintenance. In addition, the highly unreliable, rotating flashing unit has been designed out of the system.<\/p>\n
Direct Drive\u00ae is a technology that lends itself well to the regular switching required in a flashing beacon unit; more so than some other switched-mode power supply technologies. Having no driver also means the housing is streamlined and light. These neat models has been specifically designed so as not to put any stress on the lampholder and, at just 90g, is one of the lightest LED Belisha Lamps on the market.<\/p>\n
Both lamps are direct retrofits, so the existing beacon globe, post and lampholder all stay in place.<\/p>\n
Both are available in B22 or E27<\/strong> lampholder fittings. If you are not sure which fitting your beacons use, send us a photograph and we will tell you.<\/p>\n Because these are retrofit lamps rather than complete beacon units, a changeover is a lamp swap: no new columns, no new globes, no civils and no road closure beyond the normal working practice for that site. The rotating flashing mechanism that fails most often in a conventional beacon is removed from the system entirely, so the recurring visit to replace it disappears with it.<\/p>\n That is where the maintenance saving comes from, and it is the reason payback periods of under two years are typical rather than optimistic.<\/p>\n INDO designs and manufactures in the UK, and the Direct Drive\u00ae range is carried on public sector procurement frameworks, so for most local authority buyers these lamps can be bought through a route you already hold.<\/p>\n Whether you are costing a crossing refurbishment programme, specifying for a framework, or replacing failed beacon lamps on a reactive basis, we can help with quantities, lampholder compatibility and lead times. Talk to us<\/a> or request a call back and we will come back to you with availability and pricing for your quantity.<\/p>\n <\/i> View Datasheet<\/a><\/p>\n <\/i> Find UMSUG Code<\/a><\/p>\n Belisha beacon lamps sit within our wider LED retrofit lamp range<\/a>, alongside the rest of our exterior lighting<\/a> products.
