Next-generation tower lights
27 February 2026
NEW FROM Schneider Electric, Harmony Tower Lights replace legacy signalling products with a modular and future-ready portfolio.

The Harmony range represents a completely new line up of Tower Lights, with four core options. The optimum 70mm XVB7 is a modular tower light that comes in premium materials and design. The modular 60mm XV6 and 40mm XV4 offer a cost effective and modern solution, and the fully customisable smart XVTS features new light and audio configurations for advanced signalling.
The new range delivers value across several applications including water wastewater, mining, metals, food & beverage, automotive, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, retail, logistics, and manufacturing. The modular XVB7, XV6 and XV4 help standardise signalling, simplify maintenance and reduce spare parts complexity. For more advanced requirements, the XVTS extends the range with programmable visual and audible signalling and connected options to help teams respond quickly to changing conditions. These solutions will help OEMs, panel builders, distributors, and end users improve safety, minimise downtime in high-throughput systems, and lower warehousing costs.
A new tower light has been introduced at the top of the new range to enhance asset monitoring and safety. The Harmony XVTS is a smart programmable unit that extends tower light functionality to provide time-based and volume-level visual indications as well as simple alerts. It offers 9 or 15 individual light segments that can be fully customised within the full RGB spectrum and specific light patterns (steady, blinking, flashing, double and triple flashing and rotating). The XVTS is certified to IP69K rating, the highest level of Ingress Protection (IP) available. This means it is the perfect solution for outdoor or extreme applications and has excellent resistance to shock and vibration.
