About this file

This document appears to be a set of salient characteristics for airfield lighting equipment. It specifies the required performance characteristics for LED sign lights, including temperature range, humidity, wind resistance, energy efficiency, maintainability, and compatibility with existing airfield lighting systems. It also lists detailed specifications for other airfield lighting components like lamps, masts, and anchors.

The related federal contract opportunity is a Notice of Intent to Award a sole source contract to Airside Solutions, Inc. for repair parts to support the airfield lighting equipment. The contracting officer has determined that Airside Solutions is the only reasonably available source to meet the requirements outlined in the salient characteristics document. The contract will be awarded under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) for limited source contracting. The document invites responsible sources who believe they can meet the salient characteristics to identify themselves.

Sign Specs

Temperature: -40 °F to +131 °F (-40 °C to +55 °C)

Humidity: 0 to 100%

Wind: Mode 2 signs required (signs withstand wind velocities up to 200 mph)

Unique LED Light Bar design maximizes energy efficiency

• Available Battery Tester provides for quick and easy testing of individual LED Light Bars

• Electrical design uses a minimal number of components which maximizes sign MTBF and greatly simplifies troubleshooting efforts.

• Virtually eliminates runway and taxiway shutdowns due to long-lasting LED light source

• Custom made for Direct replacement of existing sign

• Creates a highly uniform distribution of light, eliminating hot spots and shadows

• Operates on floresonant or thyristor CCRs that are designed in compliance with FAA or IEC requirements

• Operates on all steps of a 3-step or 5-step CCR and on a 5.5 A CCR.

• Rugged lightning protection that complies with ANSI/IEEE C62.41-1991 Location Category C2 given in FAA Eng. Brief 67.

Category C2 is defined as a 1.2/50μS – 8/20 μS combination wave, with a peak voltage of 10,000 Volts and a peak current of 5,000

• 3 hours of down time is expected to occur for parts replacement

• An interface being placed within the system to allow other than ADB compatible parts is not acceptable. This is due to mission risk. Changing configuration of existing equipment may cause format, brightness changes, and changes to mounting configuration.
