Genuine Issue
NSN 6230-01-411-8535
The MS-2000(M) Distress Marker Light is a lightweight, compact, battery operated, portable unit that is designed to be used as a multi-functional light during emergency and/or clandestine special mission situations. The light is designed to attract attention; to assist in location; and to facilitate personnel rescue operations in both overt and covert operations.
The light system consists of a main body case containing the electronics, lamp, batteries and the flashguard (FG) shield containing one Infra Red (IR) and one blue filter. The flashguard also has raised battery polarity indicators to assist in non-visual battery replacement. The case is fabricated of high impact, cut resistant thermoplastic material and designed to insure watertight integrity of the main body case. The light utilizes a xenon strobe lamp, is powered by two AA batteries and is actuated by a magnetic reed switch. The light is designed for onehanded operation and may be operated by either hand or attached to any object.
The flashguard shield contains both an IR and Blue filter which are used as safeguards in hostile territories so as to prevent possible signaling confusion (i.e., small arms ground fire) between the signaler and observer. The IR filter provides omni-directional transmission of IR wavelengths. The Blue filter is used for line of sight (directional) light transmissions. The IR filter is designed for use during clandestine operations.
Electrical power for the MS-2000(M) is provided by two 1.5V, AA, alkaline batteries (not included) located in the base of the main body case. A retained battery door is provided with an "O" ring seal to insure its watertight integrity. Additionally, electrical power is controlled by a magnetic reed switch located on the side of the main body case. This switch also insures waterproof integrity of the main body case.
