Jerol Passive Safety Systems

Jerol Post

Due to the huge number of people who are injured or killed in traffic accidents there is a growing focus on traffic safety and all its various components. One of these is a safer road infrastructure, in which the use of passively safe columns and posts, which break in a controlled manner and absorb energy in impact, is rapidly increasing.

Benefits of Jerol Posts:

* Impact Absorbing
* Corrosion Resistant
* Satisfy all Relevant European Standards
* Long Service Life
* Lightweight and Easy to Install

The schedule can be seen below-

  • Clear lamps equivalent to 100W incandescent lamps, or above, must be minimum C class. 
  • Non-clear (frosted / pearl) lamps must be minimum A-class. 
  • Introduction of functionality requirements on lamps. 

1 Sept 2010
  • Phase-out of 75 W clear incandescent lamps.  
  • Introduction of information requirements. 

1 Sept 2011
  • Phase-out of 60 W clear incandescent lamps. 

1 Sept 2012
  • Phase out of all remaining clear incandescent lamps (i.e. 40W and 25W). 

1 Sept 2013
  • Enhanced functionality requirements.

Now is the time to change your incandescent bulbs with new cost effective and energy efficient options. We offer an LED Belisha Beacon which fully conforms to the British Standards (BS 8442) and comprises of 230-24V DC LED Assembly c/w flashing beacon, gallery, AV collar and amber globe (requires a transformer, part no: 14059).  

At a time when the energy costs keep increasing, the low power consumption of Signature's LED Belisha Beacon lowers the cost of energy required for lighting, saving you money.
