Truck-Lite has added a low-profile application to its LED Solid-State Warning (SWL) product offering.

The lower profile provides a shorter standing, making this lamp less susceptible to physical damage as well as expanding the lamp's functionality on municipal and off-highway equipment. This product meets or exceeds SAE Warning Lamp Standard J845 Class 1 legal functions at 12v to 16v and is operational down to 8v at temperatures from 40 below to 158 degrees.

Made of impact-resistant, durable, threaded polycarbonate, the lenses have optics specifically designed to maximize the functionality of LEDs. All optics are internal, leaving a smooth outer surface for easier cleaning and resistance to build-up. The powder-coated die-cast aluminum base is designed for ease of mounting and corrosion resistance. Electronics and light sources are encapsulated in epoxy to further enhance resistance to corrosion from road chemicals and corrosive environments.

Each Truck-Lite SWL operates with peak current of only 3 amps to flash its 18 light-emitting diodes. Lower current requirements place less stress on a truck's electrical system. The SWL can be wired to provide dual or quad flash patterns. Options include a yellow (amber) lens or a clear lens with yellow LEDs. The SWL screw-on lenses require no tools for replacement.

The Truck-Lite SWL is suitable for use on municipal work vehicles, construction vehicles and equipment, waste collection trucks, concrete mixers and pumps, off-road and other heavy duty applications and all supervisors' vehicles.
