Belite Announces New RADIANT Instruments And Probes

Designed For LSA, Experimental And Ultralight Aircraft

Belite has introduced a new line of RADIANT instruments which combine many functions into simple, small, lightweight units. The new instruments utilize sunlight readable high contrast color LCD screens which are also friendly with sunglasses.

Most of these new units feature a Belite crafted feature: persistence. This feature shows recent history. For example, the last 15 minutes of fuel level information is shown graphically along with the current fuel level. This provides the pilot with the ability to look at the fuel use trend and make better decisions. Traditional steam gauge instruments and other glass panel products don’t have this valuable feature.

Belite has also introduces its new Capacitance Fuel Probe. Unlike most competitive products, this new fuel probe supports multiple bending, allowing it to fit into any shape of tank. Even with many bends, it is designed not to short out and fail. It also features easy calibration via pushbuttons. It is available in any length from 6” to 40”.

“These products were specifically designed for experimental and LSA category aircraft,” said James Wiebe, CEO of Belite Electronics. “The Radiant displays are smaller, lighter, more brilliant and more functional than other aircraft instruments and will provide the experimental aircraft builder or LSA manufacturer the ability to supply more functionality with less weight than competing products."

Wiebe says the new product lineup includes the following:

  • Single or dual fuel  tank display, featuring a visual history of the last 30 minutes of fuel level in each tank.  Optional is a digital fuel flow sensor, which adds real time fuel flow information.
  • Air speed / Altitude / VSI in one unit, with user configurable speed ranges (white/green/yellow/red) and compatible with any desired range between 20 mph and 200 mph.  The recent history of airspeeds is shown, along with digital altitude and VSI information.
  • G Meter showing a continuous flow of G loads.  Optional is a SD card recorder. one unit, with user configurable speed ranges (white/green/yellow/red) and compatible with any desired range between 20 mph and 200 mph.  The recent history of airspeeds is shown, along with digital altitude and VSI information.
  • Turn Coordinator, showing user configurable turn rates and inclinometer.
  • Angle of Attack
  • Tachometer
  • Engine Temperature Monitor
  • Multi-Function Instrument with ASI, VSI and Altitude

All instruments are designed for a standard 2.25” cutout, and use approximately 100 milliamps of power from a supply of 8 to 14 volts. 

All instruments are dimmable.
