Fire Lights For Emergency Firefighting Operations

A variety of fire lights are available to help fire fighters and volunteers in action during an emergency

. These light bars come with corner and linear LED modules, with strobe light heads, all of which provide focused beams that help in getting the path cleared for the fire engine and also for visibility through dense smoke and soot. The economical light bars are highly advanced in their technology and the directional light heads provide both focused as well as off-angle visibility depending upon your requirements. The full featured fire light bars come along with corner strobes, alley lights and flashing takedowns as well along with a variety of high performance configurations to provide as much functionality as possible during emergencies.

High quality fire lights make use of standard, polycarbonate clear lenses which can help in enhancing the quality of the light. Apart from the Fresnel lens and domes, parabolic reflectors and optic spreading filters are used in order to collect the light from different super bright LEDs and then focus them either in one direction for a highly focused, narrow angle beam, or spread them for a wide angle beam with greater coverage. Some fire light bars make use of both LEDs as well as halogen lights, while some exclusively have LEDs. The power rating of LEDs is much lower which helps in energy consumption without really compromising on the luminosity of the light.

Two control knobs are extremely important for fire lights. The first one is for controlling the temperature of the beam which is very important along with controlling the angle of the beam. The second one is the control of the intensity of the light bars which helps in preserving the energy as much as possible. There are dimmer, cruise control and high intensity modes which can be used by the light bars at different points of time. It is also important to efficiently dissipate the heat created by larger, full featured light bars which have dozens of 1 10W LEDs and halogen lights. The heat dissipation can be easily done with the help of extruded aluminum casing which also provides structural stability to fire light bars.

Flash patterns are an important aspect of the fire lights used by fire engine trucks as well as the vehicles of firefighting volunteers. Built in flash patterns allow you to quickly select and flash a pattern of your choice, which could be a permutation of sequential, alternating or solid single, double or quad flashes. Central controllers are present in some light bars while a few fire light bars boast of individual control of various segments. In some cases, fire lights come with multiple tiers as well with front and rear reflectors for maximum coverage of the light. There are directional bars as well where LEDs flash as directional markers pointing to right or left. This helps in getting the attention of those around and also to pass on messages and redirect traffic to avoid confusion and clear ensuing chaos during a fire crisis.
