SILAS – H (Solar Illumination Aeronautical System) Heliport Version

SILAS System • SILAS (Solar Illumination Aeronautical System) satisfies the need to provide small airports or heliports with a low cost system to improve the flight safety in bad weather conditions or to extend the operational working hours also during night time and in case of low visibility. • SILAS is an integrated system very easy to install, not requiring any site preparation, and maybe configured with various light typologies, to satisfy the different operational requirements of heliports and airports.

SILAS System • The SILAS system is based on the SCB lights, which in the standard configuration does not require external power supply, being connected to a battery charged from solar panels. • The system may operate also in mixed working mode (solar/external power); in this configuration the lights are connected to the external power, via a dedicated plug. Then, in case of power loss the system will continue to operate via the battery powered by the solar cells, without the need of external UPS or power generator. Rev. 5

SILAS-H – LCU The SILAS-H system is managed via the Light Control Unit (LCU), which allows the following functions: • Manual switching on-off of all system lights; • Selection of the intensity level (low, medium, high); • Swtching on-off by means of a dedicated SMS, through a dedicated SIM card; • System status presentation The LCU can also be installed outdoor, since it is assembled in a IP67 case. The LCU can also be powered by solar panel. Rev. 5
