Flashing Beacon that can Exceed ITE Intensity 24 Hours a Day

The R247-G 24-Hour Flashing Beacon emits a continuous flash output that boosts the visibility of warning signs and stop signs. This cabinet-based 24-hour flasher has the solar panel on the top or side of the pole, and the batteries and EMS in a separate cabinet enclosure, allowing for more solar panel, battery, and mounting options. This beacon can be customized to your application requirements and the surrounding conditions. Sizing the system to meet ITE standards and other site-specific configurations and performance requirements is possible with this versatile solution.

The R247-G requires no trenching, cabling, or in-ground wiring, and it’s built to last: durable and dependable, this product comes with a 5-year warranty for peace of mind.

  • Multiple solar panel, battery, and mounting options to meet and exceed ITE Intensity.
  • Solar- and AC-powered versions available with support for up to four beacons and third-party devices.

Applications include emergency vehicle warning beacons, inspection station beacons and advance traffic warning beacon systems. Two activation models are available: momentary beacon flashing for a pre-configured number of seconds, or an alternate button model where the R247-G will flash indefinitely until the button is pressed again.
