Helicopter Signaling Light – SOLAS-Compliant Strobe for Marine Rescue

Helicopter Signaling Light – SOLAS-Compliant Strobe for Maritime Rescue Operations

High-Intensity LED Beacon – Visible to Aircraft & Vessels, Essential for Offshore & Emergency Use

Ensure rapid detection by search and rescue (SAR) helicopters with our Professional Helicopter Signaling Light, engineered for maximum visibility from both air and sea. This rugged strobe meets SOLAS requirements for emergency signaling, helping rescue crews pinpoint your location quickly in open water.


Key Features:

✔ High-Visibility Strobe Technology:

  • Multi-mode operation

  • 360° light output – Excellent azimuth visibility for aircraft and helicopter SAR

  • Range up to 7 miles – Visible under various sea conditions

  • High-visibility red light – Easy to spot


Professional Applications:

  • SOLAS liferafts and lifeboats (emergency signaling)

  • Man Overboard (MOB) marker lights for helicopter recovery

  • Rescue swimmer personal strobes

  • Offshore platform emergency equipment


Regulatory Compliance:

Standard Requirement
SOLAS Chapter V, Regulation 16 Lifesaving signals for communication with rescue units
IMO/ICAO Helicopter recovery signaling protocols
USCG 46 CFR 131.950 Placard requirements for helicopter recovery signals

Why Helicopter Signaling Lights Matter:

“From the air, especially if there is a lot of yachting taking place in the area, it is very difficult for the pilot of a helicopter to pick out the particular yacht he is looking for, from the many he can see, unless that yacht uses a distinctive distress signal which can be clearly seen by him.”

  • Visible color smoke and Aldis lamps also aid helicopter location

  • Strobes provide critical nighttime and low-visibility signaling

  • Red mode enables rescuers to distinguish SAR personnel from survivors in mass-casualty scenarios
