Xiangjiang Hengyang purchase 38 solar powered beacon ships

Reporter recently from Hengyang Waterway Bureau was informed that the Hengyang section of Xiangjiang River Navigation upgrading renovation project being carried out in full swing, solar power beacon light , the upgrading of the beacon for the ship water navigation security.

Dongyang, Xiangjiang River crossing to Dapu waters, with a total length of about 44 km, previously set are simple pontoon, since 2012, Hengyang Waterway Bureau purchase 38 single ship standard,  solar traffic warning light , 13 Lighthouse Lighthouse was built, the initial realization of the "day ship after ship, night lamp even a lamp" waterway fine management objectives.

With the gradual development of shipping industry, to further enhance the channel level, puts forward higher requirements for the construction of navigation aid. Hengyang Waterway Bureau Hengyang director Luo Yongyue told reporters that at present, single ship standard configuration of the domestic most advanced intelligent integrated solar energy remote beacon lights, each fixture cost up to 2600 yuan,  solar powered warning light through the solar energy storage device, daytime energy storage, night light, within 100 meters through the remote control device can automatically adjust the brightness of the lights.

Solar power beacon light, new research to enhance wind resistance

The reporter understands, this research can reduce navigation routine inspection times directly, solar power beacon light save a lot of maintenance costs; reduce production cost only a navigation light device, similar to other luminaries for 50%; power than ordinary LED lantern is reduced by 40%, the solar panel can be greatly reduced in size, thereby enhancing the wind resistance of the buoy, improve stability.

In the identification, identification of experts from the Institute of navigation, solar traffic warning light ,Fudan University, China beacon Professional Committee of Dalian Maritime University, Shandong University, Naval Aeronautical Engineering Institute and other research institutions agreed that the project, the overall technology has reached the international advanced level, improve the extreme bad weather conditions, the safety and reliability of navigation control, green led warning strobe light ,intelligent navigation light device extends the application of the water the scope of the world,which is expected to promote the use.
