Modular Safety Lighting

Treotham Automation has launched the Elfin Modular Safety Lighting range, which includes warning lights, access illuminators and machinery cabinet lights.

The Elfin range is tough and durable lighting range is designed to provide clear, reliable and effective safety lighting in virtually any industry sector and in a variety of climates.

The Elfin safety lights can be used in a warning beacon format on factory floors, as lighting on machinery and basically on any architectural surface.

However, they can be also used in conjunction with the access areas of heavy or fast-moving machinery to act as illuminators in traditional lighting fashion.

When engineering this European-designed lighting system, one of the main aims of the designers was to ensure the possibility of directing the light source where it is most needed during inspection and checking of equipment.

And as new and modern production systems are characterised by scheduled maintenance programs, the operators must make individual checks on all the efficiency indicators which are often located in dimly lit areas; for example, liquid level indicators, displays, clocks, fuses, conditioners, filters, gauges, timers, thermostats, etc.

Therefore, for safety reasons, this modular safety lighting system can be activated directly by each door of a cabinet or access port.

The auxiliary circuits of the switchgear are usually connected on the first contact element (the only one on which the interlock device can act) thereby preventing the accidental start-up of machinery or processes.

The Modular Safety Lights are IP44 rated and have a maximum 250 V, 10 W of amperage and can operate between 0° - 60°C.

All Elfin lights can have up to 1000 lumens and an operating life of up to 10,000 hours, depending on the configuration and type used.
