CTL50 Modular LED Signal Towers with 1–5 Layers

Description

CTL50 modular signal towers provide one to five independently controlled LED color layers. Configure steady, flashing or selectable operation, add intermittent or continuous sound, and choose a disc, side-nut or folding base to suit the installation.

SMD LEDs illuminate prism-pattern PC lenses above an ABS base. The high-brightness LED construction has a typical component-life reference above 50,000 hours; complete assembly life depends on operating conditions. The nominal light-body diameter is 50mm.

Assembly and Installation

To remove a lens module, rotate it counterclockwise until the index marks align, then pull upward. To install it, align the marks, press downward and turn clockwise until the triangular mark aligns with the index.

CTL50 lens module release and locking directions
Counterclockwise release and clockwise locking of the modular lens.

Keep the cable outlet from facing upward. Versions below IPX4, including the regular IP43 configuration, require upright vertical installation. Use the fixing pattern of the selected bracket, tighten the mounting hardware and protect the cable against impact and abrasion.

CTL50 installation orientation and prohibited inverted mounting
Orientation reference; the regular IP43 version requires upright vertical mounting.

Disconnect power before installation, wiring, operation on the assembly or maintenance. Check the selected model and rated supply, secure the mounting and exclude conductive dust, liquid and other debris. Complex faults and high-voltage components require qualified service personnel.

These products are intended for industrial signaling. High-reliability infrastructure, personal-safety systems, harsh or contaminated environments, fire or explosion hazards, military applications and aerospace projects require a specifically designed and expressly confirmed configuration.
