Airfield

Lamps for runway, taxiway and approach lighting

Airfield - Effective solutions for runway, taxiway and approach lighting

The transport of passengers and freight in global air traffic makes great demands on safety, too. Because of its major impact on passenger safety, airport operators are paying special attention to the lighting of runways for take-off, landing and taxiing. Lighting is used to mark out the important areas of the airfield.

The light sources are integrated in appropriate obstacle lights, either set into the ground or installed above ground. This calls for lamps that are shockproof and can withstand the vibrations that occur when aircrafts take off and land. In addition, special safety regulations require a uniform and durable light output to ensure that aircraft movements run smoothly.

Runway

The right lighting on airfields is fundamental for ensuring safe landings and take-offs at night and in poor weather conditions.

Taxiway

Airfield conditions at airports are a tough challenge for light fixtures and lamps. Systems have to be capable of withstanding greatly fluctuating temperatures and vibrations.

Approach lighting

The light from halogen lamps is flicker-free and dimmable and provides first-class performance even in adverse weather conditions such as snow and fog.
