Searchlights

Optimum Light

Optimum Light

Decisive factors for the light intensity of a high-performance searchlight are the applied illuminant and the quality of the reflector. Optimal reflection performance and even 20 % more light intensity are obtained with the WISKA parabolic mirror of glass. The 'A' searchlights are equipped with a reflector of high-gloss aluminium.

WISKA searchlights are suitable for all ocean-going and inland-waterway vessels - typical examples being merchant vessels, along with Defence, Costal Watch, Search & Rescue, Police, Customs and Fire fighting. The following lighting elements are available to suit different applications and illumination ranges:

Halogen incandescent lamps are spotlights of temperature which emit up to 20% of the electric power absorbed by a Wolfram light wire as light:

  • Constant light colour
  • Full luminous intensity after switching on, immediate restarting
  • Also suitable for onshore security
  • Average life time of lamps between 200 hrs and 400 hrs
  • Range up to 1,700 m

Halogen metal halide lamps stand out due to extraordinary light colour and optimal yield of light based on valuable metal additions in the discharge of gas:

  • Ideal for navigation in ice with separate power supply unit
  • Heating included
  • Constant light colour, high portion of blue colour, nearly daylight spectrum
  • Full luminous intensity after 45 sec., immediate reignition without cooling period
  • Average life time of lamps up to 750 hrs.
  • Range up to 4,000 m

Xenon lamps are stuffed with pure xenon. The discharge bow burns under extreme pressure reaching the highest luminous density among all lamps. The xenon lamps have a very long working life.

  • Ideal for navigation in ice, long range with separate power supply unit
  • Heating included
  • Constant light colour, high portion of blue colour, nearly daylight spectrum
  • Full luminous intensity after switching on, immediate reignition without cooling period
  • Average life time of lamps up to 1,500 hrs
  • Range more than 8,000 m
