Introduction
Congratulations! By choosing to purchase a Sealite lantern you have become the owner of one of the
most advanced LED marine lanterns in the world.
Sealite Pty Ltd has been manufacturing lanterns for over 25 years, and particular care has been taken to
ensure your lantern gives years of service.
As a commitment to producing the highest quality products for our customers, Sealite has been independently
certified as complying with the requirements of ISO9001:2015 quality management system.
Sealite lanterns comply with requirements of the US Coast Guard in 33 CFR part 66 for Private Aids to
Navigation.
By taking a few moments to browse through this booklet, you will become familiar with the versatility of your
lantern, and be able to maximize its operating function.
Operating Principle
The flasher unit has very low current requirements. A microprocessor drives multiple ultra-bright LED’s (Light
Emitting Diodes) through a DC/DC converter, which enables the LED’s to operate within the manufacturer’s
specifications.
On darkness, the microprocessor will initiate a program check and after approximately 1 minute begin flashing
to the set Flash Code.
Technology
Sealite is the world’s fastest growing manufacturer of marine aids to navigation. We employ leading
mechanical, optical, hardware & software engineers to create innovative products to service the needs of our
customers worldwide and offer the widest range of solar-powered LED lanterns in the marketplace.
Electronics
Sealite employs leading in-house electronic engineers in the design and development of software and related
circuitry. All individual electronic components are sourced directly by Sealite procurement staff ensuring that
only the highest quality components are used in our products.
LED Technology
All marine lanterns use the latest advancements in LED technology as a light source. The major advantage of
LED’s over traditional light sources is well established in that they typically have an operational life in excess of
100,000 hours, resulting in substantial savings to maintenance and servicing costs.
Precision Construction
Commitment to investing in the design and construction of injection-moulded parts including optic lenses,
light bases and a range of other components ensures that all Sealite products are of consistent and superior
quality.
Optical Performance
Sealite manufactures a range of marine LED lenses moulded from multi-cavity dies. The company has
superior in-house lens manufacturing capabilities to support outstanding optical performance.
Award-winning, Patented Technology

SL-510-SA
5-9NM Solar Marine Lantern
The SL-510-SA is a robust, stand-alone 5-9 NM LED Lantern specifically designed to withstand the tough
marine environment to provide years of reliable, low maintenance service. The 3 & 4 hole bolt pattern base fits
directly onto existing 200mm bolt pattern industry standard mounts for ease of installation.
The tough, polycarbonate lens is specifically designed for use with LEDs and incorporates an environment-
friendly spike to deter unwelcome bird life. The lens design also ensures that vessel operators clearly see the
light from above when passing the AtoN. The design incorporates a conveniently located OLED (Organic
Light-Emitting Diode) screen with touchpad allowing maintenance personnel to check the diagnostics of the
lantern with the touch of a button.
Completely programmable via the new Bluetooth®connected SealitePro®mobile application, the SL-510-SA
can be configured and monitored from a distance up to 50 metres.
The SL-510-SA is available with GPS Synchronisation as standard. Two (2) or more lights can be synchronised
to flash in unison via an internal GPS module.
The SL-510-SA may also be fitted with Satellite Communications Module or GSM Module – enabling users
to access real-time diagnostic data and change lantern settings. This feature is available via our Star2M®
monitoring and control and asset management platform. The system can also be configured to send out
alarm messages to designated phone numbers. Users can also have alarms and reports sent to designated
email addresses.
All this is backed by Sealite’s industry leading 3-year warranty.
