Aviation obstruction lights are important guidance lights in the aviation field, so they must serve as accurate navigation warnings. If the aviation obstruction lights do not light up or stay on, they will affect aircraft navigation. Next, let’s take a look at the reasons for the abnormal light of aviation obstruction lights.
Aviation Obstruction Light Single Light
Reasons for the single light of aviation obstruction lights not lighting up:
Aviation obstruction lights single light means that no controller or GPS signal is required for control. As long as the wiring is normally powered on, the obstruction light can be guaranteed to light up normally.
Most of the cases of not lighting up are because the power cord of the lamp is not correctly connected to the power cord of the power supply system, resulting in the lamp being unable to obtain normal working power supply and not lighting up.
In this case, check the line, reconnect the power cord, and power it on to work normally. The serious problem is that the wrong line is connected, causing the internal parts of the lamp to burn out, and the obstruction light can no longer be restored by checking the line, and needs to be returned to the factory for repair.
Reasons for the single light of aviation obstruction lights always lighting up:
According to the civil aviation aviation obstruction light standard specifications, the lamp does not need to light up during the day, and only needs to light up normally at night. The reason for the constant light is that the light control probe of the aviation obstruction light is blocked. The light control probe cannot sense the external ambient light of the lamp normally and defaults to night and keeps flashing. The solution to this problem is to check whether the black tape of the light control probe of the lamp is removed, or whether the light control probe part of the lamp is blocked by foreign objects.
Main light with auxiliary light of aviation obstruction light:
The reason why the main light with auxiliary light of aviation obstruction light is not bright:
It is necessary to first distinguish whether the main light is not bright or the auxiliary light is not bright. If the main light is not bright, the power cord and light control probe should be checked. If the auxiliary light is not bright, it is necessary to check whether the signal line of the auxiliary light is connected to the signal line of the main light, because when the auxiliary light is powered on, the signal line and the main light need to be connected in parallel, otherwise the lamp will not light even if it is powered on.
The reason why the main light with auxiliary light of aviation obstruction light is always bright:
The auxiliary light does not always light up, but the main light will always light up. If the main light is always bright, the light control probe can be checked. The solution is the same as that of a single light.
If the aviation obstruction lights are always on or not on under inappropriate circumstances, this is a malfunction and must be repaired to ensure the safety of the aircraft’s navigation.
