Details Q-EX Status Light unit

The Q-EX Status Light System is the 1.600 cd, 120 flashes per minute status light system that can indicate when a helicopter is prohibited to land on your Explosion Proof helideck. The status light system is easy to maintain and offers various features such as a gas sensor input and different intensities that can be controlled remotely. The complete assembly consists of 1 lighting unit and 1 system controller. Repeater lights can be purchased optionally.

A visual warning system should be installed if a condition can exist on an installation, which may be hazardous for the helicopter or its occupants. The system (Status Lights) should be a flashing red light (or lights), visible to the pilot from any direction of approach and on any landing heading. The aeronautical meaning of a flashing red light is either “do not land, aerodrome not available for landing” or “move clear of landing area”. The system should be automatically initiated at the appropriate hazard level (e.g. impending gas release) as well as being capable of manual activation by the HLO. It should be visible at a range in excess of the distance at which the helicopter may be endangered or may be commencing a visual approach.
