LED Obstruction Light

Obstruction Light Are High-Medium-Low-Intensity Lighting Devices That Are Attached To Tall Structures And Used As Collision Avoidance Measures. Such Devices Make The Structure Much More Visible To Passing Aviation Aircraft And Are Usually Used At Night, Although In Some Countries They Are Used In The Daytime Also. These Aviation Lights Need To Be Of Sufficient Brightness In Order To Be Visible For Miles Around The Structure.
Traditionally, Red Lamps (Or BeaconsHazard) Use Incandescent Filament Bulbs. In Order To Improve The Otherwise Quite Short Lifespan, They Are Made With A Ruggedised Design And Are Run Below Normal Operating Power (Under-Running). A Recent Development Has Been The Use Of Arrays Of High Power Red LEDs In Place Of Incandescent Bulbs, Which Has Only Been Possible Since The Development Of LEDs Of Sufficient Brightness. LED Based Aviation Lamps Have A Significantly Longer Lifespan Than Incandescent Bulbs, Thus Reducing Maintenance Costs And Increasing Reliability.
