FAA Validates DeTect's Aircraft Detection Lighting System

HARRIER System Meets Performance Requirements Outlined By The Agency

THe FAA has released its Performance Assessment Report on the company’s HARRIER ADLS that states that the system met “the performance requirements identified in Chapter 14 of AC 70/7460-1L”.

DeTect developed its ADLS in 2008 in response to the Dark Sky Initiative to reduce light pollution for projects with aviation obstruction lighting such as wind farms, high voltage transmission lines and communication towers. DeTect’s ADLS delivers reliable, continuous 360 degree radar surveillance of the airspace around sites automatically activating obstruction lighting only when aircraft are detected at a defined outer perimeter. The HARRIER ADLS is compatible with all turbines, communication networks and lighting systems.

“DeTect’s HARRIER ADLS is the most cost-effective system on the market and includes multiple internal fail-safes, long-range detection and tracking, and specialized algorithms to minimize light pollution while ensuring safe aviation operations,” said Jesse Lewis, General Manager of DeTect Americas.

The report is published on the FAA Website.
