Signal towers
and beacons
Interpretation of light and sound signals
Light and sound signals are a fundamental
element for the safety of a system.
To avoid incorrect interpretations, harmonised
international and European standards have
been introduced defining an unequivocal
Visual code
Red
meaning to visual or audible signalling devices.
Each colour or sound alarm corresponds to a
specific state of operation of the connected
system and various levels of warning, as given
in the following table, according to IEC 60073
Yellow
Orange
Blue
and EN 981/EN 60073 standards.
The white coloured module does not have a
specific meaning so it can be used as one
may need.
