The AV-426 RF is a robust, completely self-contained LED light designed for a range of emergency aviation applications including runway, threshold, approach, helipad and tactical airfield lighting.
Fitted with RF control, this fully functioning light can be controlled form the tower with no costly cabling or trenching required.
The unit is made from cast aluminium, subjected to a 7-stage powder-coating in aviation yellow. Four premium grade solar modules are integrated into the assembly and mounted to collect sunlight at all angles. The solar array charges the 24Ah battery during daylight hours and at dusk the light will automatically begin operation. The airfield lights can be controlled anywhere in the airfield by a handheld radio controller or in the air traffic control tower with virtually unlimited range using an encrypted repeating mesh network.
