Portable Signs

Use Flashing ALERT Signs alone or in combination with emergency advisory radio stations to alert motorists.

  • Bright LEDs.

  • Solar power.

  • 2-way radio triggering.

Operate separately from advisory radio stations to prompt immediate action described by sign text, e.g., “Evacuate this Area When Beacons Flash.”
 

Control flashing amber beacons on highway signs via wireless means without compromising AM broadcast signals. The FAS6000 includes a solar-power collection-and-storage system (an optional AC power source is available), a paging receiver and two amber LED flashers.

Each sign flash controller can recognize multiple on/off codes, allowing each sign to obey commands shared with other signs in the area. In this way, common groupings of Flashing Advisory Signs may be keyed on or off quickly in emergency situations.

LED Signals are rated for more than 100,000 hours of continuous operation. The sealed-gel cell battery auto-disconnects at low voltage to preserve integrity. FAS6000’s 64-watt unbreakable solar panel and charging system allow many hours of operation per day without tapping into battery reserves. FAS6000 batteries provide approximately 60 hours of continuous dark operation. The solar charging system adds an additional 3-15 hours of operation per day, on the average, varying with location and season.
