Marl LEDs used on rescue ship

A Marl product story
Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Nov 26, 2008

Robust, waterproof LED lights donated by Marl International have been installed on the deck of a Ulverston Inshore Rescue craft to ensure it is easily located even in extreme weather conditions.

Marl's 699 series metal panel LEDs have been fitted to the deck of the Humber Rescue RIB, one of the craft that provides support and rescue to visitors and residents of Ulverston and the surrounding areas.

These LEDs were chosen for their high optical performance, reliability and resistance to shock, vibration and salt water due to internal potting and sealing specifications in excess of IP67.

Numerous colour options are available, but red was chosen to be easily detected, yet not to cause any interference with the night vision cameras that are used in night rescues.
