FEATURES
- Resonates at approximately 670 Hz
- Designed at an optimum frequency to maximize range rating for both U. S. CoastGuard and IALA criteria
- Omnidirectional audio output
- Microprocessor‐based control electronics located in separate fiberglass enclosure (For ZONE 1, electronics are in EX “D” enclosure)
- Remote control terminals for a fog detector, a remote coder or an “at will” switch – a fog detector is useful on manned platforms where running the foghorn continuously is a noise irritant; working without human intervention
- Power supply includes remote code selector terminals for changing the sounding rhythm and terminals for synchronizing the horn with other horns or lights
- Synchronizing may also be accomplished by a centralized master coder
- Terminals are also provided for a 2‐hour temporary silence control ‐ This switch allows a technician to temporarily disable the foghorn; after the time out period, foghorn returns to sounding its designated code without the technician having to remember to manually switch the foghorn back on
