Removal of End Cover

Caution 

Ensure beacon is isolated from supply before removing cover. 

Unscrew the four (4) M4 retained hex socket head screws. This will release the cover from the base and 

allow the cover to hang on the retaining wire strap.  Before replacing the cover, check that the joints are 

clean and not damaged and that the gasket is still retained in the groove.

6.0 Status and Frequency Adjustment

DIP switches mounted on the PCB, 3 pole (LED450), 2 pole (X450) allow the frequency to be set

 

Binary code is 0=Off and 1=On. Alarm stages are managed via remote switching between S0 & S1 & 

S2. Refer to Diagram 2 & Table 1 & Table 2. 

Dc units 

connect 

+

to terminal marked 

‘L’

Do not connect Ac or Dc to terminals S0, S1 & S2.

1.0 Introduction 

 

The LED450/X450 series are weatherproof beacons designed according to EN54 (BS 5839) 

standard. The enclosure is a composite material of PC (Polycarbonate) and Fibreglass.  The unique design

 

allows different Flash and Rotary rates, including Steady with the LED450 Beacon and Flash rates with the 

X450 (Xenon) beacon.

4.0 Installation

General Requirement

The product must be installed in accordance with the latest issued relevant requirements in the EN54 (BS 5839) 

standard. Product installation must be carried out in accordance with any local codes that may apply and should 

only be carried out by a competent electrical engineer.

Location

 The location of the unit should be made with due regard to the area over which the beacon warning 

signal must be visible.  The unit should only be fixed to services that can carry the weight of the unit.

Mounting

  The  products  should  be  mounted  on  a  vertical  surface  using  four  (4)  fixing  holes  in  the

 

base. The fixing holes are designed to fit M5 Allen Screw only.  Use of stainless steel fastener is recommended

 

by Moflash. The beacon can be operated in any attitude.  Refer to Diagram 1 for detail.

5.0 Wiring 

General Requirement

Moflash recommends that all cables and cores should be fully identified (suggest using cable from 1.5mm to 

2.5mm

2

). Ensure that all nuts, bolts and screws are secured.  Ensure that only the right and certified cable glands 

are used and earthed correctly.  Ensure correct cable glands and stopping plug are used to maintain IP rating. 

Moflash recommends SS316L for this application.  

Cable Connection 

Should be carried out in accordance with relevant technical requirement.
