The SL40 R5 is designed to meet marine requirements. Benefitting from low weight (Aluminium motorhouse and lamphouse), simple mounting and long run time, the design is clean and compact and all components are chosen to withstand corrosion.

The Searchlights are especially equipped for vessels with high demand of light output or operating in harsh winter and ice conditions such as tugs, icebreakers, offshore supply vessels or ice-classed vessels. The SL40 R5 Searchlights provide reliable lighting in a wide range of watt sizes and different voltages. They are also designed for arctic environments with temperatures down to -40 °C.

The SL40 R5 is operated by use of a control panel(s), with joystick and buttons, and are simple to install and operate.

The proven electronic technology used in the SL40 R5 enables long cable runs. Between control panels and searchlight the cable run can be up to 5000 meters, which simplifies installation and ensures a very flexible system design onboard of vessels.
