Industrial warning beacon for material-handling
The K&E Safety M490 LED B is a blue flashing beacon built for permanent mounting on forklifts, PIT vehicles, utility vehicles and work trucks. It operates on 120 V AC power and uses a four-head LED array to produce a rotating flash pattern. The polycarbonate housing carries an IP67 rating for dust and water ingress protection.
Replaces aging incandescent or halogen strobes
Facilities running older beacons that draw more power or require frequent lamp changes can switch to this 5 W LED unit. The jump is worth it when maintenance intervals need lengthening and when a sealed, vibration-resistant housing is required for continuous indoor or outdoor duty.
Sustained output with sealed construction
Under continuous operation the LED heads maintain consistent intensity without the thermal fade common in filament lamps. The IP67 enclosure prevents moisture and debris from degrading the light pattern, so the beacon remains visible throughout a full shift on demanding work sites.

Questions about this item
What mounting space does the 3 7/8 in diameter and 5 in height require?
The round polycarbonate housing measures 3 7/8 inches across and stands 5 inches tall, so allow at least that footprint plus clearance for the permanent-mount hardware on forklifts, PIT vehicles, utility vehicles or work trucks.
How do I wire the 30 AWG leads to 120 V AC, and what step is often missed?
Connect the 30 AWG wires to a 120 V AC supply rated for the 5 W LED load; the step often missed is sealing every splice to maintain the IP67 rating against water and dust ingress.
When will the four LED heads need attention, and what is involved?
The four integrated LED heads are sealed inside the IP67 enclosure; no user-serviceable parts exist, so replacement means swapping the entire beacon when light output eventually degrades.
