JX4300 Obstruction Lamp Head
LED obstruction lamp head delivering ICAO-compliant medium-intensity flashing white light for tall structure marking.
The JX4300 obstruction lamp head is a LED-technology flashing unit designed to mark tall man-made structures — towers, chimneys, cranes, bridge pylons, and high-rise buildings — in compliance with ICAO Annex 14 and FAA obstacle lighting standards. It replaces or accompanies xenon-based heads in obstruction lighting installations where long-term running economy and reduced maintenance intervals are the primary drivers. As the LED variant in Flashelek's JX4300 family, it delivers medium-intensity flashing white light output matched to daytime visibility requirements — the class demands 20,000 cd peak during the day with automatic dimming to a lower night setting, driven by a photoelectric cell or control-box command. The 360° azimuthal coverage ensures omnidirectional conspicuity around the full perimeter of the structure. A procurement engineer chooses this head when replacing life-expired xenon units or equipping new structures where LED longevity (15+ year spare parts availability from Flashelek) justifies the capital cost against reduced lamp-change labour. The LED architecture also simplifies synchronisation across multi-head towers: because the flash pulse is electronically governed rather than capacitor-discharge driven, timing tolerances are tighter. STAC (French civil aviation technical service) approval — in force for Flashelek LED products since 2020 — satisfies European regulatory filing alongside the ICAO/FAA baseline. In GCC climates the IP66 rating and the -25°C to +55°C operating envelope (the upper limit accommodating rooftop installations in Gulf summer ambient conditions) are the operative selection criteria. The head is typically paired with a Flashelek JX2360 or compatible control box for tower or network-managed flash synchronisation.

Use cases.
- ›Marking tall structures such as transmission pylons, communication towers, and industrial chimneys for night and day aviation safety
- ›Replacement of end-of-life xenon lamp heads on existing obstruction lighting systems
- ›New-build obstruction lighting on cranes, bridges, and construction hoarding in proximity to controlled airspace
- ›Multi-head synchronised installations on structures requiring uniform 360° flash coverage
- ›Rooftop and high-structure installations in hot climates where LED thermal management is preferable to xenon discharge
