Precise Flight, Inc. has told ANN that it will launch its HID
(high intensity discharge) Pulselite lighting system at the NBAA
Convention in Atlanta, Georgia this year.
Precise Flight’s notes that recent developments with its
HID aviation lighting solutions combined with its broadly certified
Pulselite early recognition lighting system is 'set to bring
aviation lighting to a whole new level.'
“HID lighting produces more light, lasts longer and uses
less energy," said Scott Philiben, Vice President of Precise
Flight.
“There's no question this product, combined with the
enhanced conspicuity of the Pulselite® system, will result in
unsurpassable safety and visual performance for aircraft in the air
and on the ground."
With a 75-watt output, Precise Flight's HID Pulselite System
will draw significantly less power from the system's electrical
bus, while increasing lifespan and providing light output
comparable to a 450-watt incandescent bulb with improved quality of
light. By setting the unit to dimming intervals rather than
distinct On-Off modes, the light draws significantly less power
from the unit, thereby increasing operating efficiency.
"The HID Pulselite® System will also better meet the
requirements for early recognition amongst the Pulselite's broad
customer base of tour operators, firefighters, offshore petroleum
transport, EMS, law enforcement and government agencies."
