Expert insights on airport lighting systems produced by Signalight for airports, aerodromes and airfields. Focused on safety, efficiency, and advanced lighting technology.
Saving energy is the main discussion these days. Usually, airports consume 70% for electricity and 30% for heating, all these meaning up to 180M kWh per year. Saving energy is mandatory for reducing costs. A global goal for airports by 2050 is to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% from their levels in 2005 and this […]
Any runway needs maintenance operations and repairs at some point, after being used many times. After many landings and takeoffs is normal for an airport to need some repairs because of the damages: erases of the runway marking, damages of the pavement, the need of replacing the old illuminating systems. But, what happens with the […]
According to FAA/ICAO Regulations every structure that exceeds 200′ above ground level needs to be marked (lighted) in order to be visible to the pilots and especially during low visibility conditions: during the night, snow, fog, rain and so on. Buildings, towers, high voltage poles, chimneys, wind turbines are just a few examples of high […]
Did you know that Signalight also develop custom lighting products and systems? Here are the steps: 1. Together with the Client we define the requirements 2. We design the product 3. We create a 3D model and some simulations that we send to the Client 4. We receive feedback from the Client 5. We review, […]
The Heliport Elevated Lights – Heliport TLOF lights – are steady omnidirectional green lights designed for marking the Touchdown and Lift-Off (TLOF) area of the heliport. They can be also used on elevated heliports with limited space available, where FATO and TLOF areas could be the same, so only TLOF lights are proper to be […]
