Title
UL Standard for Safety Floating Waterlights
Underwriters Laboratories Inc.
Publication Date:
Oct 29, 1998
Scope:
These requirements cover floating waterlights intended for use in
accordance with the applicable
regulations of the United States Coast Guard.
The floating waterlights covered by these requirements are intended
for United States Coast Guard
approval under 46 CFR 161.010.
These requirements cover floating waterlights having solid-state
electronic circuits that take
power from a battery and supply the power to flashtubes or
incandescent lamps, causing the
flashtubes or lamps to emit light at the required intensity (and, for
flashing waterlights, at the
required rate). The waterlights covered are of the following types:
a) Stroboscopic Flashing - A waterlight having a flashing circuit and
a xenon flashtube or the
equivalent.
b) Flashing Incandescent - A waterlight having a flashing circuit and
an incandescent lamp.
c) Steady-Buming Incandescent - A waterlight having a circuit that
provides continuous power and an
incandescent lamp.
A product that contains features, characteristics, components,
materials, or systems new or
different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and
that involves a risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons shall be evaluated using
the appropriate additional
component and end-product requirements as determined necessary to
maintain the acceptable level of
safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A
product whose features,
characteristics, components, materials, or systems conflict with
specific requirements or
provisions of this standard cannot be judged to comply with this
standard. Where considered
appropriate, revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in
conformance with the methods
employed for development, revision, and implementation of this
standard.
