Radio controller for landing lights APR-01

APR-01

Product description

The APR radio controller is designed to control groups of landing site lighting lamps and work with ICOM radio. Through the use of a certified radio, it is possible to establish a radio link between the landing field lighting automation system and the aircraft crew. The controller allows the output circuits to be controlled according to the number of PTT button presses by the aircraft crew.

In accordance with LPR requirements for helipad lighting control systems, the system has additional outputs for 3,5,7 PTT clicks. The device is based on a Siemens controller. In its circuits, it contains fire protection elements of a surge arrester, a heating element and a temperature and humidity monitoring element inside the enclosure. The entire control circuitry is housed in an acid-resistant steel enclosure, which allows the device to be mounted outdoors, directly on the landing pad.
