Brightest subsea LED lightning now 120 VAC

2010.06.08 - Technology

The newest addition to our extremely successful AquaVision range is the LED-3200-AC. The first  commercially available LED 120VAC light  from Bowtech is retrofittable to existing 120V AC systems

A remotely dimmable LED array delivers a bright 3200 lumens white light which is ideal for colour video inspection or viewing tasks.

Utilising the latest quad cluster LED technology which generates more than four times the light output per Watt than an incandescent bulb without the vulnerability of fragile filaments drawing just 350mA per lamp.

The LED-3200-AC is extremely robust and highly shock resistant with an effective lifetime of over 100,000 hours.

The housing is manufactured from hard anodised aluminium, but Titanium and Stainless Steel are options for those specialised applications. Standard operating depth is 3000m and there is also a 6000m option available.
