A rotating beacon is a lighting device that attracts visual attention by rotating a light source.
It is primarily used as a warning light or signal light. There are two main types: motor-driven and optical type. The motor-driven type generates powerful rotational force but has a complex structure and is costlier. On the other hand, the optical type is simple, cost-effective, and characterized by low noise.
Rotating beacons are employed on roads, buildings, public facilities, etc., and are utilized by emergency vehicles, construction vehicles, and during emergencies or evacuations. The mechanism consists of a light source, rotating part, and control unit, creating a rotation of the emitted light. The key features include high visibility and warning effectiveness, with the ability to set various rotation patterns from a simple circular motion to complex patterns.
During use, attention should be given to the installation location, orientation, and operating environment. Regular inspections and maintenance are necessary.
