externally, cut the VIOLET wire off at this
point and exit with the BLACK and RED
wires. Ground this wire to go to high
power. You may install an SPST switch
(customer supplied).

To achieve any of the 4 flash patterns,
you must either cut-out or leave-in one,
two, both or neither of the two jumpers. If
you do not touch the jumpers the beacon
will default to QuintFlash.

NOTE:

 DC voltage models are polarity sensitive. If the positive and nega-

tive wires are reversed the unit will not function. The fuse is installed 
between the power source and the strobe light beacon IN THE POSITIVE 
(+) LINE (red wire) and must be fused at the battery. 

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS:

This strobe beacon features a combination base which may be used for 
either FLANGE MOUNT, 1 INCH (NPT) PIPE MOUNT, or PERMANENT 
MOUNT. The threading for a 1 inch (NPT) pipe mounting is precast in the 
cast aluminum base,

FLANGE MOUNT
1.

  Select the mounting location taking into consideration visibility of the 

strobe light flash, mounting surface and ease of wiring.

2.

Using the base gasket (ITEM 5) as a template, mark the 3 mounting 

holes and center wire access hole onto mounting surface.

3.

Drill three mounting holes using a #29 drill (.136 inch, 3.5mm).

4.

Drill the wire access hole using a 3/8 inch drill (.375 inch, 9.5mm). Be 

sure to remove burrs from access hole to prevent any damage to wires.

5.

Place gasket (ITEM 5) on mounting surface aligned with the 

holes in the mounting surface. After connecting the beacon to the 
power cable, feed wires through wire access hole. Place beacon 
into proper position and slip mounting collar (ITEM 17) over
beacon to fit around the base of the unit. Align the 3 holes in the 
mounting collar with the 3 mounting holes in the mounting
surface. Use the 3 enclosed mounting screws (ITEM 18) to 
secure beacon to mounting surface.

1 INCH (NPT) PIPE MOUNT.
1.

Feed the power cable through the 1 inch pipe and connect the 

cable to the wires of the Beacon.

2.

Screw the beacon to the threads on the 1 inch pipe, taking

precaution not to damage the connected power supply wires.

PERMANENT MOUNT

This mounting of the strobe beacon is a tamper-proof way to secure 
the unit to the mounting surface. Mounting screws are hidden inside 
the base, and aren’t accessible unless unit is dismantled.

1.

Remove the screws holding on the optic dome (ITEM 20) and 

remove the dome. Then remove the screws holding on the power 
supply (ITEM 1) and remove the power supply.

2.

Locate the four, .164 inch dimples within the perimeter of the cast 

aluminum base. (See illustration below). Punch these dimples 
out to create a hole for the mounting screws to fit through.

3.

Using the base as a template mark the 4 mounting holes onto the 

mounting surface. Remove the base and mark in the center of 
the 4 mounting holes, the location of the wire access hole.

4.

Drill the mounting holes into the mounting surface to fit customer

supplied mounting hardware, drill the wire access hole using a
3/8 inch drill (.375 inch, 9.5mm). Remove burrs from wire access 
hole to prevent damage to wires. It is also recommended that you 
install a rubber grommet in each wire hole to protect the wires.

5.

The gasket (ITEM 5) will be used between the base and the 

mounting surface. Cut the gasket along the perforated circle to fit 
diameter of base.

6.

After connecting beacon to power cable, feed the wires through 

the cable access hole and place the base with the gasket on the 
mounting surface, lining up the mounting holes in the base with 
the ones in the mounting surface. Secure base firmly to mounting 
surface with customers hardware and reassemble beacon.
