L-864 / L-865 Dual Red/White Medium Intensity LED Flashing Obstruction Lighting System | FTS 370d Vanguard

Made in the USA flag

Compliance and Applications

The Vanguard Medium FTS 370d is a dual FAA L-864/L-865 medium intensity LED lighting system for structures between 200′ and 700′ AGL (FAA E-type towers). Certified to the latest FAA specification, the FTS 370d uses a single cable for communication as well as beacon and marker power to simplify installation and use.

Designed for the long term, FTS 370d’s firmware is remotely upgradeable for compatibility with future upgrades. A single enclosure houses a low voltage environment that makes it safe for technicians to service during active operation.

Apart from FAA certification, the FTS 370d system also meets FAA L-885 low intensity catenary requirements and complies with CAR 621 2nd edition for medium intensity CL-864/CL-865 flashing lights and ICAO 6th edition standards for medium intensity Type A/Type B obstacle lights.
