EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS:
An approved lighting system consists of two lights, one located on each
wingtip. The baseplate must be mounted parallel to the vertical and
horizontal centerlines of the aircraft to project the patterns properly.
Per FAR 23.1401(d) or 25.1401(d), do not operate the anti-collision
light and the ground recognition light at the same time.
The Ground Recognition Light is a non-TSO function.
This assembly does not provide rear position coverage as required by
FAR 23.1385(c) or 25.1385(c).
Certain types of installations may require additional testing.
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS:
The forward position light is designed with 4 Green LEDs or 5 Red
LEDs. The ground recognition light is designed with 8 LEDs. The anti-
collision light is designed with 36 LEDs. If any one LED fails, the unit
must be repaired or replaced. Note: To reduce eye strain, use an
optical filter such as dark glasses or a blue covering dome during
LED inspection. Inspect the lens. Replace if there is excessive
scratching, pitting, discoloration or cracking.
Note: The anti-collision light will automatically shut-off after 9-10
flashes if a failure is detected.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:
The following information is to assist you in installing a Whelen light
system. The installation procedure described in the following text will
be confined to a single light installation, but is identical for multiple light
installations.
1. Choose the appropriate Model 90658( ) replacement light assembly.
2. Using the mounting detail information provided, prepare the aircraft
for means to secure the LED light assembly.
3. Connect the inputs according to the chart shown. Connect the
power leads to an appropriately sized breaker. Connections to be in
accordance with FAA approved methods.
4. Carefully remove the lens retainers and lens from the assembly.
CAUTION! Do not touch the LED surface with either fingers or sharp
objects. This could soil or damage the lens and effect the optical
performance of the LEDs.
5. Install the light assembly and insure that all leads are clear of any
obstructions. Secure as required. Secure the light assembly
using vibration-resistant threaded fasteners.
6. Carefully install the lens and retainers. Confirm proper gasket fit.
7. Waterproof the lightbase to aircraft. Apply single-part Silicone
(RTV) or equivalent around any open area where water could get
in.
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 required.
Note: SYNC is a low power, bi-directional control signal. Connecting
to the synchronize signal of any Whelen LED anti collision assembly
will cause the lights to flash at the same time. If syncronization is not
necessary, the connection may be left open.
