Product catalog summary
Overview: Carmanah Technologies Corp. provides the Solar Elevated Runway Guard Light (ERGL), designed to offer 24-hour unidirectional marking at runway and taxiway intersections. It features LED lights, a frangible column, and tether, with a flash rate of 45-50 per minute controlled by an intelligent lighting control system.
Key Features:
  • Quick installation and relocation capabilities.
  • Adjustable light beam: 0° to 20° vertically and ±20° horizontally.
  • Long-lasting LED technology with an average life of 56,000 to 100,000 hours.
  • Energy Management System (EMS) for consistent operation and long life.
  • Autonomy of 7+ days without solar charging, scalable up to 40 days.
  • Battery life of over 5 years.
SEPS Models: Available in Standard and Wireless models. The Standard model activates automatically between dawn and dusk, while the Wireless model can be controlled remotely.
Fixture Construction: Made from corrosion-resistant materials, painted aviation yellow for visibility, with a high-strength base plate and independent visors to maximize contrast.
Installation: Typically installed in pairs at taxiway holding positions, following FAA AC 150/5340-30 guidelines. SEPS should be installed on a level concrete pad within 20 feet of the ERGL.
Operating Conditions:
  • Temperature range: -40 °C to +55 ºC (-40 ºF to +131 ºF).
  • Humidity: 0 to 100%.
  • Wind resistance: up to 480 kph (300 mph).

SOLAR ELEVATED RUNWAY GUARD LIGHT Carmanah's Solar Elevated Runway Guard Light (ERGL) provides a distinctive warning to pilots that they are approaching a runway holding position and are about to enter an active runway. The ERGL has a high intensity LED light source and is powered by our industry leading solar engine power supply (SEPS). • Provides 24-hour unidirectional marking at runway and taxiway intersections • Installs in minutes and can be relocated just as quickly • Includes LED lights, frangible column and tether • Fixture flash-rate is controlled from an intelligent lighting control system module located in the SEPS; alternating flashes, 45-50 per minute • Can be aimed both vertically and horizontally and has an adjustable Light Beam: 0° to 20° vertically; ±20° horizontally • Significant reduction of maintenance costs and relamping expenses through long-lasting LED technology - average LED life of 56,000 hours under high-intensity conditions and more than 100,000 hours under actual operating conditions • Engineered for reliable performance, the Energy Management System (EMS) monitors and adapts brightness to environmental conditions for consistent operation and long life under tough conditions • Autonomy (operation without solar charging) 7+ days -scalable to meet requirements up to 40 days • Battery life: 5+ years SEPS Models The ERGL is available in two SEPS models: Standard and Wireless. With the standard SEPS, the unit will activate automatically between dawn and dusk with pre-set illumination. The wirelessly controlled SEPS allows the unit to be activated remotely via a handheld controller. Fixture Construction The ERGL fixture is fabricated from corrosion-resistant materials and all exterior surfaces are painted aviation yellow for added protection and visibility. Includes high-strength ERGL base plate. The two ERGL light sources are surrounded by a black face plate and independent visors to reduce the amount of incident sunlight, thereby maximizing the contrast during the LED ON/ OFF cycle. Installation ERGL systems are typically installed in pairs with one unit on either side of the taxiway holding position.The ERGL should be installed according to FaA AC 150/5340-30.The SEPS should be installed on a level concrete pad within 20 feet of the ERGL. For a temporary application, the wiring between the SEPS and the ERGL can be above ground. Both the ERGL and SEPS contain side conduits for cabling access.
