BRINGING NATURE CLOSER TO MODERN SPACE
The Celts believed that every tree had a wise spirit, whose face could be seen in the bark. Today, the mysterious power of nature continues to envelope our souls, exposing us to the energy released by the elements.

PREVENTING THE DESTRUCTIVE EFFECTS OF HUMIDITY AND SALINITY
With the Argon Pressurised System (APS)® PDS series’ optical and electronic components are encapsulated in a pressurised atmosphere of argon gas. A watertightness level of IP68 is ensured, making the system resistant to complete and continuous immersion far beyond the requirements of any regulation. The inert atmosphere in the optical-electronic module guards against condensation, moisture and salinity intrusion, thereby preventing an accelerated ageing process of the system’s sensitive components.
ADVANCED HEAT DISSIPATION SYSTEM
The PDS beacon is based on the principle of direct thermal dissipation between the LED PCB, the compact aluminium chassis and the exterior. The luminaire body comprises a continuous heat pipe of anodized aluminium AL-5754, which achieves thermal conductivity levels of 160 W/metre Kelvin, compared to 130 W/metre Kelvin of aluminium injection. The low porosity of anodized aluminium plus a thermal pad over the contact surface between the PCB and the dissipation body significantly reduce the diode’s junction temperature.
