Elektro Control Industries has indigenously designed and developed solar aviation lights.
The Solar Aviation Light 7607TWL innovatively combines solar power and high intensity LED. The unit charges even when there is a lack of direct sunlight. Sophisticated microprocessor intelligence is utilized to enable advanced light output control and battery power management.
Solar Aviation Light 7607TWL
The unit uses sealed lead acid batteries which are charged through a solar photovoltaic panel at the top of the unit. The solar photovoltaic panel and the body are protected from weather effects (rain, hail storms) to ensure a long lasting operational life. The unit automatically turns on at dusk and turns off at dawn. The unit can also be turned off for long term storage when needed.
To ensure a long life, the units are serviceable and can be serviced by trained personnel.
These lights have numerous applications, a few of which are:
- Taxiway edge lighting
- Obstruction lighting
- Apron edge lighting
- Helipad perimeter lighting
- Barricade lighting
- Emergency and portable lighting
- Parking lighting
- Security lighting
- Building, tower and fence lighting
- Wind cone lighting
The 7607TWL lights offer the following features and benefits:
- Meets the requirement of ICAO for taxiway edge lighting.
- Improves airport safety.
