PROBLEM
Airports are getting larger and busier with long term year-on-year increases in the volume of air traffic. The consequence of more flights is significantly more ground traffic, including baggage handlers, service vehicles, as well as geometric increases in complexity. Rapid movement of aircraft in and out of busy airports, as well as service traffic, is important.
Most airports have hardwired tarmac lighting systems and these typically have low reliability and incur maintenance downtime, and consequently high costs.
Airports are also increasingly concerned with environmental issues and are seeking solutions to reduce energy consumption.
3i APPLICATION BENEFITS
The 3i Airport guidance and warning/emergency system offers a more reliable, cost and energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly solution with its high intensity LED lighting system.
3i Airport systems’ two-way communication capability allows you to change modes for each light as necessary.
SOLUTION
Providing safer, effective, and efficient aircraft and ground traffic guidance on runways, taxiways, and around gates by installing high intensity energy-efficient on-road lights.
- No dangerous traffic situations on the ground
- Improved safety around planes and helicopters while fuelling, servicing, and taxiing
- Improved safety around gates and for personnel
- Lower energy consumption to reduce the environmental impact
3i TECHNICAL BENEFITS
- Fast and easy installation
- Low maintenance
- Easy replacement of lights
- Low power consumption
- High light intensity
- No corrosion
- Non sparking, removes danger in refueling situations
