SV38 technical specifications

Product catalog summary

Technical Specifications:
The SV38-150w is designed for aluminum and steel hulls, utilizing a 150-watt HID metal halide lamp with a lifespan of approximately 3,000 hours and a light output of 12,000 lumens at a color temperature of 7500 Kelvin. The lamp features a borosilicate glass lens with a thickness of 12.7mm. Power supply options include 120 VAC and 230 VAC, with respective running currents of 1.33 amps and 0.59 amps. The casing is made from Aluminum 5086 or Steel 316, with dimensions varying based on the angle of installation.

Installation Guidelines:
Recommended installation is at least 10 inches below the waterline, spaced 3-8 feet apart. The light can be installed in the transom or hull and is suitable for use in ballast and freshwater tanks. Installation requires welding into the hull, and the vessel must be out of water for this process. Maintenance, however, can be performed while the vessel is in water.

Operating Information:
The lamp is not an instant re-strike type and requires a cooling period of 10-20 minutes before restarting. It reaches full brightness in about 2 minutes and should be operated for at least 10 minutes to prevent flickering. The light beam can extend up to 30 meters depending on water clarity.

Safety and Maintenance:
The light must be welded into the hull following standard shipbuilding practices. High-temperature silicone cable is required between the light and ballast. Regular inspections for moisture and marine growth are recommended every six months.

Warranty and Support:
The product comes with a two-year warranty against defects, excluding lamps. Misuse or improper installation voids the warranty. For support, contact Underwater Lights® USA, LLC.

Catalog excerpts

 he Sea Vision SV38 weld in tank light model for aluminum/steel hulls can be installed in the transom or the hull, it utilizes a 150 watt HID metal halide lamp and 110-230 volt AC power. The lights can be welded at adjustable angles to suit all hull shapes. The hull shape and positioning will dictate the angle of the light you require, angles available are 0 to 50 degree. The SV38 weld in tank model was specifically designed to provide a watertight light for use inside freshwater tanks and ballast tanks. It utilizes a hydraulic hose or tubing to route the wiring from the light to a tank boundary. The vessel must be hauled out for installation although lamp change and any maintenance can be done in the water from within the hull.
