The buoys with 1200 mm body diameter are considered to be the most versatile of the whole range offering stability and resistance with comparatively reduced dimensions. They can be anchored in open sea for applications requiring a focal plane of up to 3 meter from the sea-level. The 1200 TFL is a buoy qualified for compact self powered marine lantern (photovoltaic module configuration 1200 GS is available). The final treatments of FLOATEX product consist of shot blasting to metal, galvanizing the complete system and subsequent painting in IALA colours by means of polyurethane marine paint. To guarantee unsinkability, the buoy body is filled with expanded floating foam. Visibility during day time is ensured through a metal day-mark of large dimensions positioned on top of the tower, with provisions by special construction arrangements for passive radaring.
