EMTEQ, the leading global provider of certified, customized and off-the-shelf integrated avionics and LED (light emitting diode) interior and exterior lighting, has released a new line of exterior LED lighting products, including:
- Pylon light
- Wheel well light
- Logo light
- Wing inspection light
- Recognition light
- 400 candela (cd) anti-collision light
These lights can be customized for mounting, frame finish, LED illumination direction or spread, LED color and assembly size, while offering the benefits of LED lighting, including improved safety with bright, clear, high intensity light and lower costs of ownership compared to non-LED systems.
LED technology benefits include:
- Significant weight reduction of the product itself
- Reduced power consumption
- High mean time between failure (MTBF)
- Compact packaging
- Simplified installation
- Significantly reduced maintenance
- Increased product durability
Rachel Bahr, director of corporate and airframe business development, says: “These lights can be easily installed as part of a type certificated production aircraft or as a retrofit program to replace heavy, less functional, non-LED systems. Of existing airframes, ideal business jet models for retrofit application with our current designs include those that seat 10-25 passengers.”
