PRESENTATION
The beacons and indicator banks of the XVE range are designed for remote signalling of the status of a machine,
equipment or specific application, either visually using illuminated units which are visible throughout 360° or audibly using
an 85 dB buzzer.The XVE Optimum range provides efficient signalling (5 colors available), at medium range distances
98.4 ft (30 m), in indoor environments.
The standard configuration of the beacons and indicator banks is NEMA and UL Type 12 (IP 42) degree of protection,
which is sufficient for the majority of indoor applications. Both pre-configured beacons and indicator banks can be
upgraded to IP 54 by using a sealing kit.

SIGNALLING FUNCTIONS
Steady Light Signalling
Two types of light source are available for steady light signalling:
•
•
Flashing Light Signalling
Flashing light signalling is also obtained using the LED. It meets requirements regarding reliability, continuous
usage and electronic simplicity.
A flashing function can also be obtained from a steady light LED or incandescent illuminated unit by using a PLC
output signal.
Strobe Light Signalling
The light source is a 1 Joule discharge tube which delivers a powerful warning signal. It is available for all 5 colors.
Audible Signalling
Audible signalling is provided by a continuous tone buzzer with a power rating of 85 dB at 3.28 ft. (1 m).
INSTALLATION
Mounting
Mounted onto support panel using a plastic mounting base or mounting base comprising an aluminium support tube
pre-fitted into a plastic mounting support.
Cabling
Cabling by means of terminal block incorporated in base unit. The terminals are protected and of the screw and
captive cable clamp type.
Selection:
pages 6 to 8
The beacons are supplied complete and incorporate a single steady or strobe light illuminated unit and a short
mounting base. They are ready to use.
The indicator banks must be assembled by the user and comprise signalling units, mounted on a base unit, and
a mounting base. These various items are to be selected from the catalog.
For an indicator bank, a maximum of 5 illuminated units or 4 illuminated units + 1 audible unit can be
assembled.
The illuminated or audible units stack vertically and are easily assembled. A screw secures their mounting.
Electrical connections between each unit are made automatically as the units are mechanically assembled.
All the signalling units are identical in size and their positioning is unrestricted.
The incandescent BA 15d base fitting bulb, 5 W max. power, is recommended for infrequent usage and where
no vibration or mechanical shock exists. The bulb is not included with the lens unit and must be installed
separately.
LEDs are recommended for continuous usage: 100,000 operating hours without maintenance and low
consumption. They have good resistance to vibration. Using an LED of a color best suited to the color of the
lens unit provides optimal luminosity.
