Description

Also Introducing the HA-L807 Exel Windsock Assembly: Your frangible-close to the runway Wind Direction Indicator

 

The L807 Exel windsock assembly is subject to specific regulations set forth by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the United States. The FAA’s regulations are designed to ensure the safety and proper functioning of windsocks used in aviation environments. As a result, these regulations cover various aspects of windsock installation, maintenance, and visibility.

 

One of the standout features of the L807 Exel Windsock Assembly is the frangible mast, manufactured by Exel Composites. This mast is a cutting-edge solution that sets a new standard in aviation safety and performance. The L807 Exel Frangible Mast is designed to be exceptionally strong yet lightweight, allowing it to withstand the harshest weather conditions. Its innovative frangible design ensures that the mast breaks away harmlessly upon impact. As a result, the assembly is well-suited for placement in close proximity to runways. It ensures that critical wind information is available where it matters most.

 

Created to serve as a consistent wind direction indicator, this assembly comes in three versions: unlighted, externally lighted, and internally lighted, catering to your specific needs. The external lighting unit illuminates the windsock from above with 4 floodlights. The internal lighting unit consists of a swivel equipped with two heavy-duty stainless steel bearings, providing illumination from within the windsock. Also all lighted windsock assemblies are equipped with a low-intensity obstruction light. The windsock assemblies are available for 100-240VAC or 6,6A power supply.

 

 

Durable and environmentally friendly

 

Crafted with care from quality materials, the windsock assembly ensures durability and accuracy in wind measurement. The HA-L807 Exel windsock assembly features a powder-coated construction, a key element contributing to the longevity and durability of all its components. The illuminated windsock assemblies feature energy-efficient LED lights, contributing to their eco-friendliness. Additionally, the utilization of high-quality, durable materials with powder coating further enhances their environmental sustainability.

 

 

Key Features of the HA-L806 Windsock Assembly:

  1. Frangible mast: The L807 Exel windsock assembly features a frangible mast, designed to break away upon impact. This safety feature minimizes potential damage and enhances its suitability for placement near runways in aviation environments.
  2. Powder-coated frame: available in either a complete orange finish or a distinctive red/white color combination. This coating enhances durability while offering high visibility to ensure accurate wind direction indication for aviation operations.
  3. Reliable Wind Direction: The windsock assembly serves as a dependable wind direction indicator, providing accurate readings and crucial information about prevailing winds.
  4. Insightful Wind Data: By combining wind direction with the windsock’s orientation, you can estimate wind speed, empowering better decision-making.
  5. Low Maintenance: The windsock assembly is designed to minimize maintenance requirements, making it a cost-effective choice.
  6. Sizing: The L807 Exel windsock is available in two sizes; size 1 (Ø45x250cm) and size 2 (Ø90x375cm), ensuring compatibility with standard aviation dimensions. Size 1 provides clear and accurate wind direction indication for pilots during takeoff, landing, and taxiing procedures close to the runway. And size 2 is visible from a longer distance when a pilot approaches the airport.Efficient Wind Inflation: The windsock’s taper ensures full inflation, even in wind speeds as low as 15 knots, enhancing visibility and accuracy.
  7. Strong Endurance: HA windsock sleeves have demonstrated durability against wind speeds exceeding 145km/h (75 knots), proving their reliability.
  8. Thorough Testing: Windsock fabrics undergo comprehensive testing, ensuring mechanical strength, UV resistance, and colorfastness.
