Model 7105519 comes with a masked lens to reduce light output in a given
direction.
EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS: An approved anti-collision light assembly should be
located so that their light will not impair the crew’s vision or detract from the
conspicuity of the position lights. The baseplate must be mounted parallel to the
vertical and horizontal centerlines of the aircraft to project the patterns properly.
Certain types of installations may require additional testing.
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS: The 7105519 LED anti-collision light assembly
is designed with 6 vertical columns consisting of 3 LEDs each. If any one LED
fails, the unit must be repaired or replaced. Inspect the lens and replace if there is
excessive scratching, discoloration or cracking. NOTE: To reduce eye strain, use
an optical filter such as dark glasses or a blue covering dome during LED
inspection.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: The following information is to assist in the
installation of a Whelen LED Anti-collision Light System.
1.
Using the mounting detail information provided, prepare the aircraft for
means to secure the light assembly.
2. Carefully remove the #4 Phillips screw and lens retainer. Remove the lens.
CAUTION! Do not touch the LEDs with either fingers or sharp objects. This
could soil and/or damage the LED and effect the optical performance of the
LEDs. Remove the 4 Phillips head screws securing the adapter plate to the
light assembly. Remove the adapter.
3. Using the appropriate hardware, install the adapter plate to the aircraft.
4. Route the wires through the opening in the adapter plate. Connect the light
inputs according to the chart shown. Connect the power lead to an
appropriately sized breaker. Connections to be in accordance with FAA
approved methods.
5. Reinstall the light assembly onto the adapter plate and insure that all leads
are clear of any obstructions and secured as required.
6. Reinstall gasket and lens. Position the masked lens for desired light
blockage. Confirm proper gasket fit. Reinstall lens retainer and screws.
Tighten firmly.
7. All inverted (bottom) mounted units shall require waterproofing of the base
assembly to the aircraft. NOTE: Drill a 1/8” hole in the center of the lens for
bottom mount units.
8. Check all avionics systems for interference from this installation.
9. A flight check should be performed by a properly certified pilot.
10. Update aircraft records, complete Form 337 and obtain FAA field approval
for installation as necessary.
