The Eiffel Tower revolving lights


The Eiffel Tower was recently adorned with 2 light
beams capable of being seen 80 kilometers away and
activated each evening when the Tower lights up.
The beacon is composed of four marine-type,
motorized projectors. They are operated by
automatically piloted computer programs. Since their
rotation sweep is 90, they are synchronized to form a
double beam in a cross that pivots around 360.
The xenon 6000 watt lamps were chosen for their
longevity, around 1200 hours. The lamps are cooled to
prevent overheating and a heating system is activated
when the temperatures drop below zero Centigrade
whilst the lights are off.
This beacon resonates the image of Gustave Eiffel's
Tower itself as a universal and symbolic landmark.
