Navigation Buoys – Modular Mooring Buoys
Modular Mooring Buoys
The main advantages of polyethylene mooring buoys over steel
- The polyethylene is completely recyclable and environmental-friendly.
Moreover the colour pigment is placed to the virgin polyethylene during moulding
process, this ensures a greater life of the colour and a big help to the environment
as it never requires painting and so no toxic dispersions in the water.
- The polyethylene buoy has lower maintenance compared to the steel buoy, almost
“zero”.
- The polyethylene buoy is lighter in weight compared to the steel buoy;
This ensure greater facility in handling, installation and assembling.
-With Floatex polyethylene buoy is possible replace easily the floating modules
(sectors) in case of accidental damage while with the steel buoy, in case of damage,
is necessary replace the whole buoy with higher cost.
- The design of floating modules permits the disassembling of the buoy which can be
easily transported around the world. This operation is not possible with a steel buoy
which is not easy to be transported, you need oversize containers/trucks and you
have to make a lot of procedures of welding on site.
- Polyethylene buoy does not need such tests as steel buoy. For example the
polyethylene buoy does not need Hydraulic test as the floating modules are totally
independent and ensure the floatability of the buoy also in case of small damages.

Articulated/Elasticated Beacon
Articulated/Elasticated Beacon
Articulated navigation buoys have a reduced swing radius. These buoys
are recommended for applications that require a highly accurate beacon
placement and are typically found in narrow channels or inside the port
itself, usually marking the limits of turning basins. These buoys are
frequently used for marking the bases of quaysides or moles where there is
an abrupt change in depth.
Each buoy is comprised of a tube that extends from a universal joint
attached to the sinker to the lamp located at the top. A hull that is located
a few metres below the surface applies a constant upward force,
which maintains the assembly in a vertical position.
This type of buoy requires a detailed study of the location and will not
perform correctly in applications with strong currents or where the
variation in water level is high (due to the tide or wave height). The
standard operating depth is between 12 and 60m.The Beacon ensures very
low drifting and accurate marking of the place of installation in comparison
to a typical navigation buoy.

WHY VERTICAL DIVERGENCE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN
INTENSITY FOR BUOY LANTERNS
Visual tests (as carried out by worldwide port authorities) have shown that the typical effective range of a buoy light
is only 30% of its nominal range due to buoy motion. However, lights with significant vertical divergence can achieve
an effective range that is 80% + of its nominal rated range on a buoy in a seaway.
The unprecedented vertical divergence of the Tideland Signal SolaMAX-65 self-contained marine lantern actually
increases the range at which a mariner can correctly identify a buoy by its lantern flash character. A 5 nm light with
exceptional vertical divergence will be identifiable at a greater distance than a 7 nm light with a smaller vertical
divergence.
The reason for this effect is that the roll of a buoy with a narrow lantern vertical divergence confuses the flash
character to a distant mariner. Sometimes he sees the light, other times he doesn’t as the buoy rolls. It is not
possible to know if the disappearance of the light is due to a normal flash interval or the rolling of the buoy. So even
though the mariner may see a lantern from some distance, he will not be able to identify the buoy by its flash
character. The wider the vertical divergence the further away a lantern’s flash character can be correctly identified.
However, the closer the mariner comes to the buoy, the dimmer
the light appears until it is not seen at all when close aboard due
to limited vertical divergence.
The SolaMAX-65 lantern eliminates both these problems by
providing a light visible with a 3o , 5o , 10o , 20o and 30o vertical
divergence

Offshore Oil & Gas
Tideland Signal Corporation (Tideland) supplies complete offshore system solutions utilising the latest technology with standard
products certified to ATEX Zone 1 or Class I, Division 2 (UL1598A).
Our systems are specifically designed to meet or exceed all known operational and safety requirements for aids to navigation on
offshore installations. The systems are compliant with IALA Recommendation O-139 on the Marking of Man-Made Offshore
Structures, and include the option of a 15NM light station, making it compliant with North Sea regulations. The Syncrolan®
system is certified under the ATEX Directive 94/9/ EC for use in ATEX Zone 1 & 2 and is also available for use in Class 1 Division 2
Group A,B,C,D and safe area.
Tideland’s six decades of experience in designing, building and installing innovative reliable global offshore systems allows us the
ability to identify all known operational and safety requirements to meet and exceed client needs.
Our design philosophy has always
been to make each of the lanterns
and fog signals autonomous units.
Therefore each unit has its own U
coder. In this way, the service to
the mariner is not affected by any
central control panel failure or
failure of an individual lantern or
its controller.
Tideland Signal offers a complete
system, tested and ready for easy
installation minimising any
additional work to be carried out
