Fully Customizable LED Signal Tower



PATLITE's LA6 REVOLITE LED Signal Tower has a clear body and is programmable in up to five different segments with 21 color choices, 11 alarm patterns and endless flash rate settings to fit users' unique signaling needs.

Free, easy to use PC software is available to program the LA6's light and sound patterns. The program can then be controlled by discrete I/O using a PLC.

The LA6 was designed to solve the drawbacks of traditional stack lights, one drawback being that individual stack light modules can be difficult to see across large plant floors. To fix this issue, the LA6 can be programmed to display one single, solid color throughout the entire unit when an error occurs, providing increased visibility.

The LA6 can be programmed to show any number of processes with different colors or alarm sounds, including but not limited to indicating the severity of an error on a machine, showing the progress of a machine process, or visually indicating the depletion of tank fluids in real time. It can even be used in a countdown mode, visually aiding the pace of an assembly line. Workers can visualize and understand more accurate and detailed machine information at a distance without having to be tethered to an HMI.

The LA6 signal tower has a 60 mm diameter, making retrofitting/upgrading using an existing pole or wall mount brackets easy. Other specifications include:

  • Rated voltage DC24 V
  • 85 dB alarm at 1 m
  • Operating ambient temperature -25 °C to +60 °C
  • Signal wire current maximum 70 mA
  • Protection rating IP65 (with alarm IP54)
  • Three LED stack model and five LED stack model available
  • Approvals: UL508, CSA-C22.2 No.14, CE, RoHS, FCC Part 15 Superpart B, Class B
  • Full color LEDs driven by microcomputer in the tower
  • Rewritable software configurations.
