The Model 70900 series LED anti-collision light assembly meets the
requirements of FAR 91.205(c)(3).
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS: The 70900 series LED anti-collision
light assembly is designed with 10 vertical columns consisting of 3 LEDs
each. Should any one LED or any vertical column fail, the unit must be
repaired or replaced.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: The following information is to assist
in the installation of a Whelen LED Flashing Anti-collision Light System.
1. The installation procedure described in the following text will be
confined to a single light installation, but is identical for multiple light
installations.
2. Prepare the aircraft for means to secure the LED Flashing Anti-
collision Light assembly (see reference AC 43.13-2A, Ch. 9).
3. 14/28 VDC (+) and (-) ground leads equipped with an appropriate
sized breaker to be supplied to the LED Flashing Anti-collision Light
Assembly System. Both leads must be connected by an approved
FAA connection. Insure that the wire leads and the pressure venting
tube are all clear of any obstructions and ty-wrap as required. The
pressure venting tube may be trimmed to minimum length of 1” from
base.
4. Install the light assembly by securing to aircraft using #6-32 x
3/8” (maximum length) approved hardware. NOTE: Lens mounting
screws installed at 5-7 in./lbs. of torque.
5. Check all avionics systems for interference from this installation.
6. A flight check should be performed by a properly certified pilot.
7. All inverted (bottom) mounted units shall require waterproofing of
the unused mounting holes. An application of single-part silicone
(RTV) or equivalent applied into mounting holes is recommended
(see illustration on page 2). Inverted and/or standard mounted units,
when necessary, may require waterproofing around any open area
where water could get in. Specifically, the lens to the flasher base
assembly, and the flasher base assembly to the aircraft. Note: It is
permissable to drill a 1/8” hole in the center of the lens for bottom
mount units.
8. Update aircraft records, complete Form 337 and obtain FAA field
approval for installation.
