ELTEC 's S chool Zone System may be AC or DC solar powered. Since 1968 ELTEC has been a leading provider o f  programmable time clocks   for the flashing beacons in School Zones. A system can be configured with one or two amber/yellow flashing signals per pole. Some municipalities require a “tattle tail” light, which faces the opposite direction of the signals. It confirms to authorities that the school lights are indeed ON/working as scheduled.

RRFB's are also approved for school use.  The RRFB is a rectangular shaped, high intensity signal head, which flashes in a wig-wag, rapid flickering pattern. The alternating signals provide direct, ultra-bright concentration as well as wide-angle intensity. The beacons are pedestrian activated: push button or passive detection (several options available). Interim approval for the RRFB's can be found at the following site: https://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/interim_approval/ia21/ia21.pdf
