Kellermann 'Dayron' - ECE-approved intelligent DRL system with smart control
Award-winning German lights manufacturer Kellermann is internationally respected for innovative, high quality, ECE-approved LED lighting solutions that set the benchmark for durability, design and safety.
New to its range is Dayron - the world's first high-performance daytime running light for motorcycles with intelligent light control and ECE approval.
Described as "the world's first motorcycle lighting technology that can be completely integrated into the onboard electronics of the motorcycle", Dayron is offered as a pure daytime running light with position light and as the Dayron i, a daytime running light with position light and indicator function.
"No other manufacturer in the world has a comparable innovative lighting product in its range - Kellermann is successfully breaking new ground and creating a complete system solution for modern motorcycles," says CEO Stefan Woeste.
"The Dayron daytime running light system is installed with the support of motorcycle-specific plug and play solutions. The integration into the onboard electronics of the motorcycle is done by the DRL device (Daytime Running Light module). This intelligent DRL device controls the perfect coordination and communication of all components with the motorcycle's onboard electronics.
"The system also delivers automatic light control between low beam, daytime running light and the position light - as required by law in Europe. Kellermann is therefore the only manufacturer to date to offer a retrofit daytime running light with ECE approval for installation on the latest generation of motorcycles."
Dayron features a unique, new, brilliant luminous surface "with outstanding new lens technology. It can replace the existing daytime running light as well as position light and turn signals and features automatic deactivation of daytime running light and position light during turn signal operation".
The system is completely integrated into the onboard electronics and installation is 100 percent plug and play with model-specific add-on kits. There is automatic switching of the daytime running light to position light when low beam is activated.
It is permanently illuminated when the low beam is switched off. When the low beam is switched on, the daytime running light automatically switches to position light mode. If the indicator signal of the Dayron i is activated, the daytime running light is automatically deactivated temporarily and the indicator signal lights up on the full surface area.
The auxiliary lights and other functions can continue to be operated as normal after the daytime running light system has been installed.
"With the highest light output of all ECE-approved daytime running lights on the market, the Dayron ensures greater visibility of the motorcycle and thus reduces the risk of accidents. Thanks to the sensational brightness, every motorcycle with Dayron daytime running lights is seen much better by other road users during the day and at dusk - increasing safety through increased visibility.
"Kellermann is the first manufacturer worldwide to offer the Dayron i with the combination of daytime running light and turn signal. With the Dayron i, the entire light surface changes from white to yellow during the indicator signal process. This light power and signal effect combination is legally available only from Kellermann".
Dayron is built into a high quality, black, flow-optimised aluminium casing with M8 x 20 mm mounting adapter. The LED technology features Kellermann's Long-Life Protection Guard, is IC controlled, runs at 330 kHz and is suitable for 12 volt DC applications.
Initially, this intelligent system solution is available for the Harley-Davidson Pan America ADV models and the BMW R 1250 GS and R nineT model range, with other brands and models to follow later.
