AC / DC Navaids

Universal Navigational Aids Systems

Tideland has created a suite of SOLACHAN (TM) products specifically to meet the exacting needs of Saudi Aramco for marking of their new and existing Offshore installations. These products fulfil the requirements for their AC supported and DC (Solar) systems but are equally suited to other similar applications.

Charger, Solar Regulator and Solar Panel can be simply exchanged to be converted from AC to DC or vice versa.

Three variants for each system have been created for different Zoning Requirements. Full IECEX for Zone 2 Applications, NEC Class 1, Division 2 solution in line with all historical
applications used by Saudi Aramco, and a Safe Area version where certified equipment is not required and a lower cost is beneficial. Systems meet or exceed requirements for use in
areas that require a 5NM white light with the use of the latest LED technology.
