Windenergy
Worldwide solutions
Lanthan offers a worldwide range of obstacle lights that comply with ICAO and IEC61400-29 standards. The luminaires are certified by ICAO and STAC AVV, among others, and have already been installed over 100,000 times on seven continents.
Quality standards
Lanthan is ISO9001:2015 certified and is a member of APQP4Wind.
Stable supply chain
Lanthan has large internal production capacities with a 3600 m² production area in Bremen and Gefrees (Bavaria). As 90% of production takes place in-house, a stable supply chain is guaranteed. Lanthan offers a long-term support and repair service without the risk of a compatible replacement product becoming unavailable.
The G4.1 series has been specially developed for seamless integration by wind energy manufacturers.

Lanthan ist spezialisiert auf Retrofit Lösungen
Discontinued Systems
Many manufacturers of obstacle light systems have discontinued support for old products over time, meaning that spare parts are no longer supplied. For example, Reetec MLGF 2.2 or Reetec Slimline x86 systems.
Our Approach is to replace these systems by adopting the previous configuration by using same form factor, brackets, or connectors to minimise installation time.
Flashtube Systems
Early wind energy lighting systems were primarily based on flash tubes. These systems are no longer supported by the manufacturers. Typical systems include the Orga L303, all Honeywell (formerly DASA) Systems FT2000, or even LED2000.
We have developed several one-to-one replacement systems that require minimal installation time. The picture on the right is an example of what we developed in collaboration with Enercon, and it is available there. If you are outside Enercon maintenance, you can contact us.
ADLS - Aircraft Detection Lighting Systems
Aircraft Detection Lighting Systems are mandatory in germany and will play a significant role in many more countries. Many obstacle light systems do not support the integration of ADLS and need to be exchanged.
Lanthan systems are able to communicate over the windfarm by network or LTE-Mesh and integrate ADLS functionality.
New Requirements: France
It is required in France to have systems repaired within 21 days after failure. This regulation has an impact for systems which are out of production or service by their manufacturers. We provide support for all our systems and ensure fast delivery.
New Requirements: Sweden
Sweden requires to update all systems on windturbines according to swedish Regulation TSFS2020:88k. Is is now required to have Medium Intensity Lights Type B including infrared.
The swedish regulation is more strict than the ICAO since they define an upper intensity limit.
Lanthans R2kIR500 completely fulfills this requirements.
Retrofit for Acceptance: French +4° Modified Beam Medium Intensity
Flashing obstacle lights at night have a great influence on the acceptance of wind energy.
The French authorities have approved a special version of the ICAO Medium Intensity Type B light with an elevated beam. The centre of gravity has been moved to +4° above the horizon.
