LED Inset Taxiway Edge Light (LTO)
Compliance
• FAA: L-852T(L) AC150/5345-46 and EB No 67
• ICAO: Annex 14 – Volume I par. 5 3 18 8
• EASA: CS ADR-DSM, Book 1, par M 720 (c) (3)
• IEC: TS 61827
• NATO: STANAG 3316
• CAA: CAP 168
• TCCA: TP312
Applications
Taxiway edge for ICAO, FAA and military taxiways.
Benefits
• 60,000 hours LED rated life at full intensity, but over 100,000 hours in field operating conditions.
• In new installations, LED lights mean smaller loads, smaller CCRs and transformers, thus lower life cycle costs.
• Light output is variable like a traditional halogen lamp, as indicated by FAA “Engineering Briefing No.67”.
• Colors are produced by LEDs: no colored filters ensures no energy losses and no color shifts.
• Fully compatible with existing AFL infrastructure (for monitored fixtures, isolation transformer max size: 200 VA).
• Designed with simplicity allowing longer maintenance intervals and fewer spare parts.
• No use of sealing compound to fix the prisms in the dome. Use of gaskets to set the prisms in the dome makes their replacement quick and easy.
• No optical adjustment after LED module or prism replacement.
• Pressure valve for watertightness test after overhaul.
• Compatible with CCRs designed in compliance with IEC or FAA requirements.
Technical Features
• Rugged electronics built tough for high resistance to shock and vibration.
• Automatic adaptation to the 50 or 60 Hz frequency of the supply current.
• Surge protection device is provided to protect the electronics as required by FAA “Engineering Briefing No.67”.
• Continuous internal fault detection.
• 0.25″ (6.35 mm) limited protrusion above the pavement reduces vibration to aircraft and to the fixture itself, increasing its life expectancy.
• Smooth outer dome profile makes the light less susceptible to snowplow blades.
• Omnidirectional, 8″ or 12″ dia.
• Aluminum forged dome and die cast lower cover make the fixture sturdy, but lightweight for easier handling in the field.
• O-ring is provided to avoid dirt deposits between the fixture and base.
• IP67 protection.
• Temperature range: -55°C (-67°F) to +55°C (131°F).
Installation
• Suitable for 8″ or 12″ dia. bases.
• Adapter ring for 8″ light installation on 12″ dia. bases.
• Specific tools available for easy and precise installation.
