Beacon Tower Flasher
FS & FA Series
B-KON Flashers have proven their reliability
through years of use on communication towers,
smoke stacks, cooling towers, tall buildings,
bridges and utility towers. The highest quality
components are encapsulated in a rugged plastic
housing with a molded-in heat transfer plate. The
flash rate, ratio, and fail-safe design meet FAA
regulations. Zero voltage switching can increase
lamp life up to ten times. The FS155-30RF &
FS165-30RF include superior RF filtering circuitry
for use in high RF installations; including AM hot
towers .
For more information see:
Appendix B, page 165, Figure 4 for dimensional drawing.
Appendix C, page 171, Figure 30 for connection diagram.
Operation
FS Series - Flasher (OFF First)
FA Series - Flashers & Aux. Modules
Upon application of input voltage, the T2 OFF time begins.
At the end of the OFF time, the T1 ON time begins and the
load energizes. At the end of T1, T2 begins and the load
de-energizes. This cycle repeats until voltage is removed.
Reset: Removing input voltage resets the output and the
sequence to T2 .
Features:
• Zero voltage switching - up to 10 times
longer lamp life
• No RFI caused by contacts closing
• High inrush capability - up to 200A
• RF model for AM hot towers & other high
RF installations
• Auxiliary units for synchronous flashing or
constant line loading
