AeroLEDs has announced its latest contribution to aviation lighting
products. The new Pulsar was designed from a clean sheet, using
advanced mechanical/electrical computer modeling and optical ray-
tracing software to accurately predict the performance of the final
product. The approach was a no-compromise design that was intended
to address all shortcomings of the existing line of competitive
products and is intended to meet or exceed all of the FAA
requirements for certification, says company co-founder Nate
Calvin. The product is currently in the certification process with
approval expected by the first quarter of 2009.
AeroPulsar LED-based nav/strobe lighting products meet TSOs C30C
and C96C. When installed per FAR Part 91.205 c-2, 3, Pulsar
lights will exceed the requirements of traditional legacy
technologies such as Xenon strobes and incandescent lighting, the
company says.
According to AeroLEDs, Pulsar features include life expectancy that
will match the life of the airframe, zero maintenance, low power
consumption, a product manufactured with no environmentally harmful
substances, elimination of RF noise, low weight (less than 12
ounces), low drag, direct retrofit and multi-voltage inputs (9 to
30 VDC).
The AeroPulsar price is $995 per pair.
