Aircraft warning light tower obstruction lighting faa l 864 medium intensity obstruction light
Detailed introduction
The FAA L864 Medium Intensity Obstruction Light is specifically designed to mark tall structures such as towers, wind turbines, and high-rise buildings, providing essential aircraft warning signals. This medium-intensity light meets both ICAO and FAA regulations, ensuring safety for aviation during daytime and nighttime operations. The L864 model emits a red light and flashes at a rate of 20-60 flashes per minute, making it highly visible to aircraft from a distance.
Engineered with high-performance LEDs, the L864 offers superior brightness and durability while maintaining energy efficiency. Its robust construction includes a UV-resistant polycarbonate lens and corrosion-resistant die-cast aluminum housing, ensuring long-term reliability in challenging environmental conditions. The light is designed for easy installation and minimal maintenance, making it an ideal choice for both new installations and retrofits.
This medium-intensity obstruction light is perfect for marking obstacles between 45 to 150 meters in height, providing an effective and cost-efficient solution for aviation warning needs. The L864 ensures reliable, long-lasting performance, enhancing safety for aircraft and reducing the risk of collisions with tall structures.
Overview:
The L-864 Type B and Type C Medium Intensity Aviation Obstruction Light (AO-MI-B2) is designed to mark obstacles ranging in height from 45 to 105 meters. This red light operates at night, flashing at a rate of 20-60 flashes per minute, fully compliant with ICAO and FAA regulations. Powered by high-performance CREE LEDs, it ensures reliable, stable performance and an extended operational lifespan. The L-864 provides a cost-effective, energy-efficient solution for enhancing aviation safety by clearly marking tall structures, while maintaining durability and long-term reliability even in harsh environmental conditions.
