for Xcel Tower Light Controllers
Xcel Controls, Inc. requires 120VAC bulbs to be used with the Xcel CPS, RCPS, ECN, and RJC Series of tower light controllers. These bulbs may either be 620 watts; or 700 watts for controllers manufactured after 01/96.
Some companies have reported problems upon installing 130VAC 620 watt bulbs. In theory these bulbs will last longer, however, using 130VAC 620 watt bulbs will trigger a false alarm since the beacons will not be illuminating to the FAA required candela. In other words, even when the beacon appears to be operating properly the controller can indicate a bulb outage due to the bulb not being bright enough.
Companies that want to maximize the life expectancy of their tower lights while conserving energy should use the Xcel/Dialight LED beacon and obstruction light systems. These systems use 90% LESS energy than the incandescent lighting lighting and have a five year limited warranty.
Please contact Xcel Controls, Inc. if you have any questions or concerns about your tower lighting needs. Email info@xcel.com or call Xcel at 1-800-288-7362.
for RJC and ECN Series
Media Release
Xcel Controls, Inc. has announced a new option for the RJC and ECN Series tower light controllers.
Customers now have the option to trigger an alarm if the photocell has not changed state in 19 hours. A jumper setting will automatically turn on the tower's lightning and set an alarm if a photocell failure is suspected.
New panels should be ordered with the "/P" option while existing installations may be upgraded with a circuit board swap. Contact Xcel Controls, Inc. for more information.
Customers requiring full photocell control should use the Xcel's AR2 system that calculates the exact time the photocell should operate based on FAA regulations.
Machines that are in high traffic areas, where safety is an issue, are ideal applications.
The operator is required to enter a special code via a keypad to activate the power to the machine. If the machine remains idle within a defined period of time, power is shut-off and the code has to be re-entered.
120-460VAC single and three phase versions are available.
A NEMA 12 dust free, 10" x 8" x 6", enclosure is standard. Other enclosures, as well as various colors, are available.
