OUTSTANDING FUNCTIONALITY AND FEATURES
Vega has gone to great lengths to make the VLS-46 Ultra a
flexible sector light. Each individual subtense can be adjusted

the projectors can be adjusted on the base plate to align the
sector boundaries.
Any multiple of VLS-46 Ultra projectors can be mounted
together to handle a variety of navigation tasks including:
•
Single sector applications to mark danger areas or vessel
turning points
•
Lane separation for 2-way traffic
•
Parallel channel marking
•
A 2-station range system
•
Marking a marine reserve or boundary
