Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A modular light unit for illuminating a hazardous underwater environment includes a housing having a front portion with a light transmissive window and a back shell portion which enclose a layered lighting assembly. The layered lighting assembly includes a PCB with an array of LEDs mounted thereon with the LEDs in thermal communication with a bottom surface of the PCB. A thermal bridge abuts the bottom surface of the PCB on one side and a heat sink on the other. A thermally conductive potting material fills spaces between the heat sink and the back shell portion. An underwater connector provides releasable connection to an electrical cable for providing power to drive the plurality of LEDs. A quick-release mechanical fastener is attached to the housing for releasably attaching the modular light unit to a support structure installed within the hazardous underwater environment.
