The DX-PE2000-PU is a 2000 mm LLDPE navigation buoy designed for coastal, port and waterway marking projects that require reliable buoyancy, controlled draft and flexible AtoN configuration.

Its UV-stabilized rotationally moulded LLDPE float is filled with closed-cell polyurethane foam and reinforced by an internal 316-grade stainless steel structure. With 3,200 kg total buoyancy, 2,350 kg net buoyancy and an adjustable ballast system, the buoy provides a stable platform for marine lanterns and other navigation equipment while allowing the final configuration to be adapted to project requirements.

Buyer Decision Snapshot

Why DX-PE2000-PU?

3,200 kg Buoyancy Capacity

The 2000 mm float provides 3,200 kg total buoyancy and 2,350 kg net buoyancy, offering capacity for navigation equipment and project-specific configurations.

Foam-Filled Flotation

Closed-cell polyurethane foam inside the float section supports reliable flotation and provides additional buoyancy security for long-term marine deployment.

316 Stainless Steel Internal Structure

Internal 316-grade stainless steel bracing and fittings reinforce critical structural areas used for equipment support, lifting and marine operation.

Adjustable Operating Balance

A 450 kg adjustable ballast system allows the buoy's draft and operating balance to be configured according to the final equipment arrangement and project requirements.

AtoN Configuration Ready

Lantern, topmark, buoy colour, mooring fittings and associated navigation equipment can be configured around the required marking application.

Main Product Value

Stable Buoyancy for Configurable AtoN Projects

A navigation buoy is not selected only by diameter. Its available buoyancy must also support the required lantern, topmark, batteries, communication equipment and other project components while maintaining the intended operating condition.

The DX-PE2000-PU combines a 2000 mm float, 3,200 kg total buoyancy and 2,350 kg net buoyancy to provide useful capacity for project-specific AtoN configurations.

Its adjustable ballast system allows the final operating balance to be matched to the actual equipment arrangement, helping the buoy maintain the required draft and upright operating position after configuration.

Configured Around the Navigation Mark

More Than a Bare Buoy

The final configuration of a navigation buoy depends on its actual marking function and deployment conditions.

The DX-PE2000-PU can be configured with:

Marine Navigation Lantern
Selected according to the required light range and light characteristic.

IALA Topmark
Configured according to the required navigation mark.

IALA Buoy Colour
Available in standard navigation mark colours.

AIS AtoN
Can be incorporated where digital identification and AIS broadcasting are required.

Mooring Arrangement
Mooring fittings and associated components can be selected according to deployment requirements.

Ballast Configuration
Adjusted according to installed equipment and the required operating condition.

IALA Mark Configuration

Configured for the Required Navigation Mark

Suitable for Projects Requiring Buoyancy and Configuration Flexibility

The DX-PE2000-PU is well suited to:

Channel and Waterway Marking
For projects requiring a 2000 mm navigation platform with substantial reserve buoyancy.

Port and Harbour Navigation Marks
Suitable for configurable navigation marks carrying lanterns and associated AtoN equipment.

Coastal Navigation Applications
Its foam-filled flotation body and stainless steel internal reinforcement support long-term marine deployment.

AIS AtoN Buoy Configurations
The available buoyancy allows additional navigation and communication equipment to be considered during system configuration.

Projects Requiring Future Equipment Expansion
The 2,350 kg net buoyancy provides useful capacity when additional equipment may be introduced into the final buoy arrangement.

FAQ

What is the net buoyancy of the DX-PE2000-PU?

The DX-PE2000-PU provides 3,200 kg total buoyancy and 2,350 kg net buoyancy, offering capacity for the buoy structure and project-specific AtoN equipment configurations.

Can AIS AtoN be installed on the buoy?

Yes. AIS AtoN can be incorporated into the buoy configuration where required. The final equipment arrangement should be reviewed together with buoyancy, power supply and ballast requirements.

Can the ballast be adjusted for different equipment configurations?

Yes. The buoy uses an adjustable ballast system. The final ballast arrangement can be configured according to installed equipment, required draft and operating balance.

Can the buoy be supplied in different IALA colours?

Yes. Standard IALA buoy colours are available. The final colour and topmark configuration should correspond to the required navigation mark.

Can Dexonmarine provide the mooring configuration?

Yes. Mooring fittings and associated mooring components can be configured according to the project and deployment requirements.
