Hazard lights are a general requirement for airfield projects, especially when construction is on or near active aircraft in low visibility conditions. Engineered with a slightly angled lens which directs light upward, the Airport Hazard Light draws special attention from both ground crews and pilots in elevated positions. Because the light is solar powered it is a cost effective and environmentally sound option for airport and other construction projects.
Designed to screw directly into the 10" Low-Profile Airport Barricade, this light also mounts easily to the 24" Low-Profile Airport Barricade and the road-rated Dual-Sign Traffic Wedge when coupled with a basic adapter.
For the best battery life we recommend removing the battery and storing it separately from the hazard light when not in use. The charged light automatically turns on when ambient light falls below 60 lux, which typically occurs during evening civil twilight or inclement weather. The flashing variant (ARL-FL) maintains a 55 blink per minute rate when activated.
This FAA advisory circular also calls for “Omni-directional red lights either flashing or steady-burning, collapsible barricades, and/or signs to separate all construction/maintenance areas from the movement areas.”
“During reduced visibility or night hours, supplement the barricades with red lights, either flashing or steady-burning.”
