Product Details
K-Lock Anodized 5 Nautical Miles Horizontal Mount Masthead LED Light by Lopolight®. 5nm 225 Degree Masthead, double light, CD/CS, K-lock alu base (PE base plate incl). The Lopolight products are unique based innovative use of LED's (Light Emitting Diodes) and very effective and sophisticated power electronics that delivers low power consumption and extremely long lifetime even in the harshest conditions. In addition all lights are completely sealed to allow submersion. Actually Lopolight has found their way onto several submarines - where the lights are found to work flawlessly after being tested to 350 meters depth.

The design is 100% focused on the challenge of getting the best navigation lights, so there are no considerations to the classic way of constructing a navigation that was established when the primary light source was kerosene, Lopolight have started with a clean sheet of paper.
Mechanical construction principles
The components Lopolight use are the classic 3 mm LEDs, the most proven and most efficient type. These LEDs are made to Lopolight specifications with regards to intensity and colour, each LED is graded and tested at the factory, one of the important differences from a standard LED is that the Lopolight LED is encapsulated in a silicon-epoxy package, this ensures a much longer lifetime. Each LED is then inserted in to a specially made acrylic lens that ensures the light is guided in the right direction; acrylic (PMMA) is the only 100% UV-stable transparent plastic in existence.
The lens sits inside seawater resistant anodised aluminium housing. The housings are CNC machined to exact dimensions. Inside this housing Lopolight hide the electronics - more on this later.
The whole unit is then potted out with epoxy, leaving absolutely no air inside the light. This has enabled several submarines to be satisfied with standard Lopolight lights. Actually a Lopolight can stand being submerged to 350 meters!
The above construction process also ensures that a Lopolight is absolutely vibration proof, there are no moving parts and the LEDs are in themselves fully vibration proofed. Lopolight has been tested to withstand acceleration forces up to 50G.
During the production process the lights are thoroughly tested in 6 different stages.
Since the start of the LED revolution in the early oo’s, Lopolight® has been providing LED navigation lights to sailors around the world with the promise of “fit ‘n forget.” Today Lopolight is firmly established as a leader within navigational lighting worldwide, with both the products and the company matured and robust, they stand ready to service your every need within the sector. It offers navigation light systems for all vessel types and sizes and its collection has around 170 000 lights. What’s more, Lopolight provides a complete control and monitoring system that is compact and flexible, built and configured specifically to customer specifications.
