Introduction
2.1 Compliance with
Standards FAA: L-807 & L-807(L) AC 150/5345-27 (Current Edition) and the FAA Engineering Brief No.
67 “Light Sources other than Incandescent and Xenon for Airport Lighting and Obstruction
Lighting Fixtures.” ETL Certified.
2.2 Uses Provides visual surface wind direction and velocity information to pilots in flight or on the
ground at airports and heliports.
2.3 Features •The L-807 wind cone is a non-frangible designed wind cone available in three styles,
lighted (internal or external) or unlighted, and in two sizes, eight- or twelve-foot wind
socks.
•Pole is available with either a center hinge or bottom hinge. Center hinge allows easier
pole lowering. Bottom hinge includes a swing-out support leg that allows the mast to be
lowered to a convenient servicing height for light source replacement.
•The LED lighted wind cone assemblies may be powered directly from a 2.8-6.6 A or 8.5-
20 A series circuit using only an isolation transformer. No power adapter is needed,
significantly reducing CCR load. It may also be powered from a direct 95-264 VAC
source. LED light output stays constant regardless of input current range (for series
powered) or input voltage level (for voltage powered) wind cones.
•Any AC voltage-powered incandescent wind cone may be powered from a 6.6 A or 20 A
series circuit using an ADB power adapter or from a direct 120 VAC source.
•Sealed bearings allow precision vane operation for true wind direction in all types of
weather and wind conditions.
•Bearing covers are provided for additional bearing protection against dirt and moisture.
•The nylon fabric sock is treated for water repellency and resistance to rot and mildew.
•Standard colors are orange or orange/white banded and the colorfastness exceeds
Method 5671 of Federal Standard 191. Other colors are available as a special order.
•An optional L-810(L) red LED obstruction light is available (see catalog sheet 2063). For
wind cone configurations available with an LED L-810(L), see ordering code.
2.4Lighting Assembly
- LED — The internally lighted wind cone provides an average illumination on the top and
lateral surface of a fully extended windsock of 10- to 30-ft lamberts. The internally
lighted 8-foot wind cone uses one LED optical assembly and the 12-ft uses three LED
optical assemblies.
— The externally lighted wind cone provides a minimum illumination of 2 foot candles on
the upper surface of the fully extended windsock. The externally lighted 8- and 12-foot
wind cones use two LED optical assemblies.
— The wind sock is illuminated with orange LEDs and is used only on solid orange
colored wind socks.
2.5Lighting Assembly
- Incandescent — The internally lighted wind cone consists of two 100 W/
120 VAC lamps for an 8-foot wind cone or three 100 W/
120 VAC lamps for a 12-foot wind cone
— An incandescent lighted wind cone cage may be provided with an optional L-810(L)
LED red obstruction light.
— The incandescent wind cone can be used on any solid colored or color-banded wind
sock.

2.6 Operation The operation of the wind cone is entirely dependent on the direction and relative velocity of
the surface wind. Movement of the wind through the open throat of the cage and into the sock
causes the tail to inflate. The tail of the inflated sock indicates true wind direction for velocities
as low as three knots through a 360° circle about the vertical shaft.

3.0 L-807 Wind
Cone Installation
This section describes instructions for installing the L-807 wind cone.
3.1 Unpacking The equipment is shipped ready for installation. Handle equipment very carefully to prevent
component damage. Unpack the carton upon receipt and check the contents and their
condition. Note any exterior damage to the carton that might lead to detection of equipment
damage.
If you note any damage to any equipment, file a claim with the carrier immediately.
The carrier may need to inspect the equipment.
3.2 Tools/Equipment/
Supplies Needed The following are the tools, equipment, and supplies needed to install the L-807 wind cone:
•Wrenches for 3/8 in., 1/2 in., and 5/8 in. hex screws and nuts
•Allen hex keys for 5/64 in., 3/16 in. and 1/4 in.
•Medium size blade screwdriver
•Cloth for cleaning lamps
•Grease gun
•Sawhorse
3.3 Mounting the
Foundation When installed on a structure or building, the wind cone must be tethered. Also see FAA AC
150/5340-30 for addition mounting information.
Refer to the guidelines below when mounting the wind cone on the base.
See Figure 5. Put the L-807 wind cone on a concrete base.
NOTE: The concrete base is at least six 90-lb bags entrained with ¾ aggregates producing
3000 psi (20,684 KN•m2) after 20 days.
Slope the top of the concrete base downward from the 8-in. (203.2 mm) diameter bolt circle
for drainage.
Place the 1-inch (25.4 mm) diameter electrical conduit in the hole in the center of the wind
cone base. (Also see Figure 7.)
Use the four equally spaced 1-in. (25.4 mm) diameter anchor bolt holes in the bolt circle as
centers for locating the four 5/8-in. (15.875 mm) x 27-in. (685.8-mm) long anchor bolts.
(Also see Figure 7.)
NOTE: The wind cone foundation in Figure 5 is given as only a general guide. The engineer
or contractor has the responsibility to determine the dimensions and type of
foundation demanded by the soil conditions at the installation site.

3.4.2.1 Assembling Wind Cone
Sock Cage The sock cage assembly is comprised of the following items: throat ring, mid ring, trail ring
and associated connector straps. Assembling these items together is accomplished by using
the ¼-20 x 7/8 Long, Socket Button Head screws, ¼ lock washer, and ¼-20 hex nut,
mounting hardware supplied.
1. Fasten the two bearing L-shaped support straps to the throat ring (the largest diameter
ring) using the pre-drilled holes in the ring and the strap. Install the “L- end” of the two
straps to the throat ring 180 degrees apart. Turn the short leg of the strap outward.
Tighten all screws and nuts.
2. Fasten the mid ring (next smallest diameter ring) to the next set of holes in the bearing
support straps away from the throat ring. Tighten all screws and nuts.
3. Fasten the trail end ring (smallest diameter ring) to the far end of the strap. Tighten all
screws and nuts.
4. Fasten the other two straight support straps to all three rings by using the remaining holes
in each of the rings. Tighten all screws and nuts.
5. Next fasten the bearing mounting plate at right angles to the bearing support strap and
fasten these to items to the L-shaped support strap using a ¼-20 flat head screw and hex
nut. Tighten the flat head screw and nut. Place the bearing on the mounting pad with the
shaft collar where the set screws are located, pointing toward the center line of the cage,
and fasten with the 3/8-16 screw, heavy flat washer, and 3/8-16 hex nut. Tighten all
