Tideland Signal is proud to present the “Archbeacon” which was designed and patented by Archbeacon S.L. from Barcelona, Spain.
With the growing problem of background lighting Archbeacon worked with Spanish authorities to provide a method of visual reference to the normal, IALA recommended port entrance lights. Archbeacon was invented.
Archbeacon now assists mariners in several Spanish ports and has glowing references.
Archbeacon provides a strong visual reference against severe background lighting and can be seen from a distance of between 3 and 5Nm. In the draft IALA Guideline (1073) on Conspicuity of Lights the ARCHBEACON is mentioned as a "pointing device".
