LightHouse Control is a multifunctional software product developed to monitor the condition (appropriate for  lighthouse lanterns) and location (appropriate for floating buoys and their lanterns) of navigational equipment. LightHouse Control consists of:

• Electronic mapping system;
• Real-time GSM module operation and low-orbit satellite communication systems NKCC and УКВ;
• GPS modul (accuracy range up to 5 meters);
• Tools for working with database of messages outcoming from sensors or lanterns СНО;
• 

When connected together these components create a system of distant monitoring, which processes the following data and forwards it to the main control room.

• Technical condition of the lantern;
• Power supply status (an alarm will be activated in case the power supply drops more than 30% or if it falls below the assigned critical level);
• Communication module status, time of the last communication session;
• Information from additional sensors (impact sensor comes as standard equipment);
• Coordinates of the current location and distance from the initially assigned location;
• Allows viewing of previous data based on selected parameters and time period.

  LightHouse Control allows the user to form and configure user-defined chart collections, to create customized layers on the charts, to adjust the frequency of positioning check (by default this information is updated every 30 minutes), to set the radius of marginal drift from the original location, to forward messages from the navigational objects via SMS or E-mail.

General Description Our Light Buoys are made of high density polyethylene (LLDPE) and are filled with special styrofoam (EPS). Application of the rotational molding manufacturing method makes our buoys not only environmentally friendly, but also strong and lightweight with sophisticated body protection from hazardous effects of oil, gas, marine organisms, salt and fresh water and exposure to ultraviolet rays. General information Materials: All buoys are manufactured using extruded polyethylene with a rotationally molded external shell. The inside is filled with freon-free polystyrene; Wall thickness: from 5 mm to 18 mm; Height: from 3000 mm to 7000 mm; Diameter: from 160 mm to 1000 mm; Weight: from 40 kg to 250 kg (depending on the model); Ballast: from 22 kg to 200 kg; Anchor: from 200 kg to 2000 kg (please refer to ………….). Equipment: Light Reflector: standard for all models Radar Reflector: standard for all models Life Cycle: up to 10 years Warranty: 2 years Certificates: Quality Certificate: ISO 9001:2000. Accreditation: all products are officially licensed by the Ministry of Defense and Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation Optional Еquipment: LED Lantern GOTTA NVL-M Distant Monitoring System

Our polyethylene buoys are distinguished by their low weight, high density hence strength of the body and long lasting period of exploitation without having to replace due to corrosion or fading of color.
In comparison with metal buoys the polyethylene buoys do not require regular maintainance. The general checking of the buoys is carried out once in 3-5 years to control the state of the anchor chain; other things being equal the polyethylene buoy is not effected by hazardous weather conditions or salt water corrosion.
