May 14, 2026 Leave a message

Classification and Luminous Intensity
Categorized by luminous intensity into low, medium, and high-intensity types to suit obstacles of varying heights. Primary light colors are red and white; low-intensity lights typically operate in steady-burning mode, while medium and high-intensity lights usually flash at a rate of 20 to 60 flashes per minute.

 

Environmental and Protection Characteristics
Designed for an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C with an ingress protection (IP) rating of IP65 or higher. They withstand harsh outdoor conditions-such as rain, snow, salt spray, and strong winds-making them suitable for various elevated, exposed locations.

 

Performance and Functional Characteristics
Predominantly utilize LED light sources with lifespans reaching 100,000 hours. They feature intelligent light-sensing capabilities for automatic activation and deactivation. Certain solar-powered models support off-grid operation, maintaining functionality for over 15 days during continuous overcast or rainy weather.

 

Compliance Characteristics
Products must comply with the civil aviation industry standard *MH/T 6012-2015 Aviation Obstruction Lights* and undergo testing and certification by designated agencies. Installation is mandatory for fixed obstacles exceeding 45 meters in height, in accordance with relevant regulations.
