WARNING: Allow only qualified personnel to perform the
following tasks. Observe and follow the safety instructions
in this document and all other related documentation.
This section provides instructions for installing the L-860 low
intensity elevated light fixture. Refer to the airport project plans and
specifications for the specific installation instructions.
The equipment is shipped ready for installation. Handle equipment
very carefully to prevent component damage. Unpack the carton
upon receipt and check the contents and their condition. Note any
exterior damage to the carton that might lead to detection of
equipment damage.
If you note any damage to any equipment, file a claim with the
carrier immediately. The carrier may need to inspect the equipment.
This subsection describes the placement of the L-860 light fixtures.
Follow the guidelines below, along with FAA specification
AC 150/5340-30 and site plans when placing the L-860 light fixture.
•
The L-860 light fixture is normally positioned a maximum of 10
feet (3.048 m) off the edge of the hard surface of the runway,
and in a straight line with all other light fixtures on the same side
of the runway.
•
The longitudinal spacing of the light fixtures should not exceed
200 feet (60.96 m) to define the lateral limits of the taxiing
paths. The longitudinal spacing of the lights is influenced by the
physical layout of the runways.
•
Closer spacing of the lights should be provided on short runway
sections, curves, and entrances to runways from runways or
aprons.
