Polaris beacons from Edwards Signaling merge the latest

LED technology with renowned Edwards inventiveness

to achieve a dazzling convergence of form and function.

These multi-use beacons are ideal for new or retrofit

commercial and industrial applications alike, but the LED

technology is what makes Polaris really shine.

Thanks to its exclusive light engine technology,

Polaris achieves luminance levels that rival or surpass

incandescent bulbs and even flash tubes. This

breakthrough delivers all the benefits of LED technology

without sacrificing performance. In fact, Polaris outshines

other lighting methods while providing more consistent

light levels over time, far greater resistance to vibration, a

much longer lifespan, and better energy efficiency!

These performance and cost-of-ownership benefits aloneare dealmakers where the Polaris enters the signaling

market. Add NEMA 4X and IP66 environmental ratings

and youve got a go-anywhere solution thats good

indoors or out from shop floor equipment startup alerts,

to outdoor natural and environmental disaster warnings.

But theres more to Polaris than meets the eye. These

beacons feature two dome styles, two base colors,

and a range of operating voltages that together make

Polaris Class beacons among the most versatile beacon

solutions anywhere.

They are also field configurable for six different flash

patterns and are available in six eye-catching colors.

These combinations of style, color, and flash rate offer a

virtually endless array of signals that lend real meaning to

any message.

Even the intricate design of its highly efficient fresnel lens

helps the Polaris beacon capture attention and direct it to

where its needed most. Thanks to a powerful magnifying

ring that encircles the lens, light is concentrated into a

brilliant band thats visible from all angles. This band oflight is so intense that it achieves the perceived brightness

of a xenon strobe. It also reflects noticeably off surfaces in

a 360-degree ring around the beacon, causing it to grab

attention even when the viewer is facing away from the

device!

Polaris measures up...

Polaris innovation doesnt stop with its optics. Its patent-

pending Hidden-in-Plain-Sight (HIPS) Switch makes

settings simple to change and easy to find but only if

you know where to look. Heres how it works: beneath

the familiar Edwards E-Shield on the beacons base lies a

pressure-sensitive area that, when pressed for more thansix seconds, initiates setup mode. Subsequent presses

cycles through six available flash patterns plus steady-on.

The HIPS touch-sensitive area offers little tactile feedback,

so to a casual observer, there is no reason to believe the

emblem is anything more than brand identification. But

for installation and maintenance personnel, the E-Shield

represents convenience, efficiency, and a lot of time

saved... no tools required, no hatches to open or bases

to remove the device is reconfigured on the fly and

doesnt even need to be powered down!

Exceedingly clever and charged with 140 years of invention,

Polaris Class beacons demonstrate that form can follow

function without sacrificing style. Find out more. Contact
