According to road traffic regulations, emergency vehicles must be clearly identifiable. Several products from HELLA, such as the warning lights BST in yellow and white and the beacons RotaLED and K-LED Blizzard, ensure this at the animal rescue Essen. The latter generates a 360-degree signal that can be seen from afar, allowing road users to be warned at an early stage. This is particularly important during night-time operations, for example to secure accident sites.
In addition, animal rescue Essen relies on the modular optical warning system OWS 7 from HELLA. This allows two or four beacons to be positioned on the outer edges of the vehicle roof. At the animal rescue Essen, the system was supplemented by a voice announcement function with which passers-by can be warned of free-range animals.
In the search for injured animals, the 70 LED Generation 3 hand searchlight helps. At 800 lumens, it creates a light range of over 160 meters and enables the surroundings to be illuminated in a targeted manner. In addition, the LED Light Bar 350 work light in the form of a compact light bar mounted on the vehicle roof provides homogeneous illumination in the close-range area.
All products are characterized by their robustness and longevity. This is ensured by LED technology, high-quality corrosion protection and the extreme vibration resistance of the beacons. This is achieved because the beacon has no moving parts. The polycarbonate light dome is also impact-resistant. This ensures that the environment is safely illuminated even off-road.
Another advantage of the beacons is their simple mounting. They can be attached either firmly, via a magnet or with the aid of a pipe socket. The optical warning system can be adapted to the respective vehicle profile in 100 millimeter steps.
