3M 7010389824 Photoluminescent Shipboard Sign 8x4 in Afff

Product Description

The 3M 7010389824 is a photoluminescent film-based shipboard safety sign designed for marine and industrial emergency signage applications. The sign uses a rechargeable glow-in-the-dark photoluminescent film that absorbs ambient light and re-emits it in low-light or no-light conditions, making critical safety information visible during power failures or emergencies. Retroreflective lettering is produced from Diamond Grade Reflective Sheeting, adding a secondary layer of visibility when a light source is present. The sign measures 8 inches x 4 inches and is intended for professional installation by marine safety or facilities personnel. This SKU is designated for AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) signage.

This sign is suited for shipboard environments where SOLAS-compliant or equivalent safety signage is required to identify firefighting equipment, specifically AFFF systems. Typical installation locations include engine rooms, fire stations aboard vessels, and other marine compartments where fire suppression equipment is stored or accessed. The photoluminescent construction supports visibility requirements in spaces where lighting may be lost during an emergency event. It is also applicable in shore-based industrial facilities that follow similar emergency signage standards.

Key Features

• Photoluminescent film charges with ambient or artificial light and glows in darkness without external power
• Retroreflective Diamond Grade Reflective Sheeting lettering provides high visibility when illuminated by a direct light source
• AFFF designation clearly identifies aqueous film-forming foam firefighting equipment locations
• Compact 8 inches x 4 inches format fits standard shipboard sign mounting positions
• Lightweight at 0.25 pounds, minimizing load on mounting surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or supplemental shipboard safety sign for AFFF firefighting equipment identification. Compatible with standard marine sign mounting systems. No specific vessel model or system family compatibility was provided by the manufacturer for this SKU.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by marine safety technicians or facilities maintenance personnel familiar with applicable signage codes and shipboard safety regulations. Clean and degrease the mounting surface thoroughly before applying the sign to ensure proper adhesion. Ensure the sign is positioned where it will receive adequate light exposure to maintain the photoluminescent charge. Do not install in permanently dark locations where the film cannot recharge between emergencies.
