ADB Solar LED Wind Cone System (SWCS)
ADB’s LED Solar Wind Cone System (SWCS) is an ideal choice for an airfield that requires improved safety measures, but experiences difficulties with grid access.
ADB’s SWCS consists of either an L-806 or L-807 solar-powered wind cone (SWC) and a Solar Engine Power Supply (SEPS). The SWC provides visual surface wind direction and velocity information to pilots in flight or on the ground at airports and heliports. The SEPS incorporates the latest technology in solar technology, hardware and software to provide power and control to the SWC.
FEATURES
The L-806 SWC is a low-mass, frangible-designed wind cone available in two lighted styles, internal or external, with an eight-foot wind sock
The L-807 SWC is a non-frangible designed wind cone available in two lighted styles, internal or external, and in two sizes, eight- or twelve-foot wind socks
Battery daily depth of discharge is sized for a minimum of 5 years of service
