Latest Addition to LED/IR Obstruction Line Enhances Visibility & Safety, Provides Future-Ready Solution Ahead of FAA Requirements with the Most Efficient, Longest-Life Strobe on the Market
Dialight, the developerof LED lighting technology, announced the launch of its new Vigilant LED Dual Red/White Strobe with Infrared (IR) obstruction lighting system. The Dual IR flash head and systems are approved through Intertek to the FAA AC 150/5345-43G and Engineering Brief No. 67D standards, with the addition of the IR LEDs to the standard red night operation to enhance visibility and safety for pilots, including those who utilize Night-Vision Goggles (NVGs).

NVG在航空中的使用正在迅速增长,尤其是在军用和医疗直升机飞行员中,他们的视线距离和清晰度在识别障碍,地形和不断变化的天气状况方面的清晰度。然而,某些NVG过滤器阻止了红色LED产生的光,使灯光难以检测。对话产品将IR LED与红色LED结合使用,以优化所有条件下关键障碍的可见性。
The new IR strobe features IR LEDs (in series with the red LEDs) operating with peak intensity at 850nm to ensure 360 degrees of visibility with the latest generation of NVGs utilizing Class B or C filters. The Dialight dual fixture is fully compliant to the IR intensity and angle standards set by the Finnish Transport Safety Agency, which is widely accepted as the international standard.
At present, neither the FAA nor Transport Canada (TC) have implemented IR requirements. But, with growing wider use of NVGs, this is expected to change soon, and the new Dialight Dual IR beacon provides a future-proof solution for U.S. and Canadian obstruction property operators.
“随着NVG使用的增长,我们希望FAA和TC很快将IR集成纳入每个现有的红色阻塞信标,” Thright Group首席执行官Michael Sutsko说。“该产品使阻塞所有者和经理在游戏之前,采用合规的解决方案,以增强飞行员和设备的安全性和保护。”
双LED / IR闪光灯是基于low-pr相同ofile, high-efficiency form factor as Dialight’s standard dual strobe, with the addition of the IR LED module integrated into the flash head. The IR and red LEDs are controlled and monitored together to ensure proper night-time operation with only a negligible increase in power consumption. The IR-equipped flash head is also backwards compatible with existing Dialight red/white strobes in the field, via a simple change out of the flash head and driver.
The new Dual LED/IR beacon adds to对话不断增长of IR-equipped obstruction lighting. The company already supplies L-810 low-intensity red side markers and L-864 medium-intensity red beacons, both approved to FAA AC 150-5345/43G and EB 67D standards as well. This expanding line enables tower and other obstruction owners to streamline procurement and vendor relations by sourcing all obstruction lighting needs from a single supplier.
As with all Dialight obstruction products, the Dual LED/IR strobe is backed by Dialight’s five-year, full-performance warranty for long-life reliability to dramatically reduce maintenance costs and the risk of FAA non-compliance fines compared to conventional beacon lighting technology.
