SECTION 1 - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 

 
Introduction 

The RCL-300A was specially designed for mariners who require a high 
intensity remote controlled searchlight that can stand up to the tough 
marine environment. 
 
The sleek design and modern construction of the searchlight body 
makes it attractive for recreational and commercial vessels. The 
searchlight is totally enclosed and is made of rugged aluminum alloy. It 
is gasketed and finished to be resistant to the weather. 
 
The  RCL-300A  searchlight  contains  a  narrow  beam  searchlight  that 
produces  1,000,000  peak  candle  power  by  combining  twin  35W  metal 
halide  HD  lamps  providing  over  500K  candela  (CD)  each  and  1  million 
effective CD when combined.  
 
All  functions  of  the  searchlight  can  be  electrically  operated  by  remote 
control from the pilot area or the vessel using the URP-102 P

oint Pad™, 

URC  Master  Controller  and  interconnect  cable  supplied  with  the  RCL-
300A.  Searchlights equipped  with the URC-300  Master Controller have 
a  self-

park  feature  and  ACR’s  unique  XRCiZ™  feature.  The  XRCiZ™ 

feature routinely operates all moving parts in the searchlight to keep the 
motors and drive mechanisms freely running.
