General Description
The Unidirectional Battery Powered Approach Light (UAL) is a portable lighting solution with three pre-set light intensity levels. It shares components with the COREL model, including a polycarbonate body, lamp base, and electronic controls. The lamp can be adjusted in elevation between 2° and 8°.
Construction and Finish
The UAL is constructed from high-strength polycarbonate and features corrosion protection and electromagnetic compatibility. It uses a tungsten halogen bi-pin lamp with a 2000-hour lifespan. The base can be fitted with rubber or Velcro for stability.
Battery Charging
The UAL includes a freestanding battery charger capable of charging up to 16 units simultaneously. Each unit has an individual charging outlet, and the charging process is straightforward.
Battery Status Indication
A tricolour LED indicates battery status: green for more than 70%, orange for 40%-70%, and red for less than 40%. During charging, the LED shows orange for 0%-70%, green for 70%-90%, and flashing green for 90%-100%.
Photometric Performance
The UAL emits white light at three intensity levels: 200 cds, 400 cds, and 600 cds, through 20º in azimuth.
Power Supply
Powered by two 12V 7Ah sealed lead acid batteries, the UAL can operate for 16 hours at maximum light output.
Environmental Performance
The UAL meets rigorous environmental standards, including resistance to climatic conditions, corrosion, mould growth, fluid contamination, EMC, vibration, and shock.
Control
The UAL can be controlled manually or via radio using a VHF receiver module. The radio control is coded to prevent interference and unauthorized operation.
Deployment
UALs can be deployed as a backup or standalone system. The lamp elevation is adjustable, and base plates with Velcro can be used for semi-permanent setups.
