Flasher Units

FORVIA HELLA flasher units ensure reliable indicator lamp failure monitoring in vehicles and trailers. A lamp failure is indicated by an increased flash rate or a deactivated indicator control lamp, thereby contributing to vehicle and road safety. Depending on the vehicle architecture, flasher units are available with a single circuit, two separate circuits, or as pulse flasher units. These variants enable flexible control of turn indicators, trailer functions, and indicator lamps in passenger cars, commercial vehicles, buses, and trailers.

 

If indicator lamp failure monitoring is not implemented via the vehicle electrical system, FORVIA HELLA LED flasher units with ISO pulse provide a reliable solution. In combination with ISO 13207 compliant LED indicator lamps, the flasher units monitor the power consumption when the indicator lamp is switched on. A defined pulse of 21 W -equivalent to that of an incandescent bulb - is checked within 100–130 ms. This allows incandescent bulbs and ISO 13207 compliant LED lamps to be operated in any combination. This is particularly advantageous for towing vehicles used with frequently changing trailers or semi trailers.
