Detailed introduction
Medium intensity obstruction light, also known as aircraft warning lights, are an essential part of aviation safety systems. These lights are used to mark tall structures such as towers, antennas, or buildings that could pose a potential hazard to aircraft navigation. Medium intensity obstruction lights are designed to provide a high level of visibility to pilots, especially during low-light conditions or adverse weather.
These lights typically consist of a combination of steady-burning red lights and flashing white lights. The steady-burning red lights indicate the presence of the structure during nighttime operations, while the flashing white lights increase visibility during the day and in low-visibility conditions. By clearly marking these structures, medium intensity obstruction lights help pilots maintain a safe distance and navigate their aircraft accordingly.
Medium intensity obstruction lights are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and are compliant with international aviation regulations set by organizations such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Regular maintenance and inspections are essential to ensure the proper functioning of these lights, including checking for any damage, ensuring proper alignment and visibility, and promptly replacing any faulty components.
In summary, medium intensity obstruction lights play a critical role in aviation safety. By providing clear visual cues to pilots, these lights enhance the safe navigation of aircraft and help prevent potential accidents caused by obstacles. They are a reliable and durable solution for marking tall structures and ensuring the overall safety of air traffic.
Overview:
AO-MI-B2 Aircraft warning light medium intensity obstruction light L 864 , it flash red color night time. According to ICAO, FAA regulations, this medium intensity aviation obstruction light is designed for marking top of obstacle which height is between 45 to 105 meters. and this l864 obstruction light needs to keep flahsing in night time at 20-60fpm. We adopt high intensity CREE LEDs as light source, stable quality and long life time.
Compliance:
1. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), Aerodromes, Annex 14, Volume 1, Eighth Edition, dated July 2018
2. FAA L-864.
Features:
1. Adopt super bright CREE brand LED, high intensity with a lower energy consumption.
2. Input voltage available in DC(12-48V DC) or AC(100-265V AC 50-60Hz).
3. Unique design and UV protected polycarbonate for the obstruction light protect cover.
4. Efficient photometric design provides excellent light distribution, make sure meet ICAO and FAA demand.
5. Base material is die casting aluminum which has strong corrosion resistance, Shock and Vibrations protection, long time service time
6. Special valve installed under the base to make sure the air could go through but water is avoid, so that the whole Type B medium intensity aviation obstruction lighting temperature won’t be high.
7. Built-in photocell for daytime and night operation.
8. Surge and lightning protection.
9. Kinds of optional functions available, such as GPS synchronous flashing, sequence flashing, alarm relay etc.
