When Durability Matters in Brown or Blue Water Applications, Reach for SONARAY.

You’ve likely heard from the folks at SONARAY that their line of marine flood lighting marketing under the OCEANRAY brand has been recognized by Marine News Magazine for 3 years running as a top 100 brand for the marine industry. But at the end of the day when you peel back the outer layers and the recognition, what does that mean for people using the flood lights in true marine applications?

For the commercial fisherman it means that the fixtures do what they say they will do - that is, they will provide ample, crisp, clear, focused lighting that makes a very difficult and dangerous job a little easier. OCEANRAY marine lights have been used in some very precarious and important environments. For example, the Delta Flood Light Series is currently in use on commercial vessels that run out of Dutch Harbor in Alaska. Dutch Harbor is in the outlet to some of the most treacherous waterways in the world. If you remember or have ever seen the fishing show “Deadliest Catch” you might recall that crab fishermen often fishing the Bering Sea area and came in and out of Dutch Harbor. In that environment lighting can literally be a life and death decision.

OCEANRAY Flood Lights are not only durable and provide great lumen output, but they are also treated with anti-corrosives to withstand the fury of nature including salt spray and other things that break down fixture housing and lens. Add in an industry-leading IK or impact rating for unexpected force and you can understand just how well built and performing these fixtures are.

Of course, not every marine application is going to be in a Dutch Harbor type of environment, but that also is something that makes SONARAY marine lighting impressive. Select fixtures can be “stacked” or coupled together and the beam for each individual output device in the coupled fixture can be different. This might mean that you can have a very tight beam angle somewhere where it is really needed. This means that not only is the volume of the light output important, but also where that light output is directed. This is also a separation point for SONARAY and many other brands.

SONARAY also has a broad variety of LED flood lights in its product offering. Ranging all the way from 30-watt to 1000-watt, the LED floods can be used for non-marine applications ranging from wall washers and construction lighting all the way to lighting for stadiums or raceways and things of that nature.

Still, one of the absolute most impressive markets for these flood lights continues to be the marine environment. It’s more than just words on a page when a very reputable industry-leading magazine such as Marine News recognizes your brand 3 years in a row. And, as the ONLY lighting brand to have this feather in its cap, SONARAY is justified in saying that they offer an exceptional fixture for an ocean of applications. With SONARAY the goal is to keep folks safe regardless of the environment. Tight lines.
