Universal AC Low Intensity Obstruction Light
Dual Light Fixture
AV-OL-ILAB-UM-R-D
& AV-OL-FL810-UM-R-D Models
This Avlite dual light xture is a steady burning, low intensity LED obstruction light
designed to comply with FAA L-810 and ICAO LIOL Type A & B requirements. The
model can be used for marking obstacles up to 45 metres above ground, such as
telecommunication towers, wind turbines, buildings and other tall structures.
Avlite’s LED obstruction lights offer an ultra bright, energy efcient and cost
effective lighting solution.
The dual light xture can be congured to different operational states. Both light
xtures may be set to operate steady-burning. Alternatively, the dual light xture
may consist of a main light and a standby light. If the main light should ever fail the
standby light will automatically switch on to ensure the obstacle is always clearly
marked.
The light xture incorporates internal diagnostic checking and an alarm contact for
remote monitoring. The alarm relay is energised in normal operation and is released
whenever the LED is not lit.

• Mains power should always be disconnected when work is being done in close proximity to
electricalttings,andelectricalworkshouldonlybedonebyalicensedandcertiedprofessional.
• Operate the light only within the indicated electrical ratings and product usage instructions.
• To ensure that the light and peripheral equipment function safely and correctly, use cable in
compliance with the effective local electrical code.
• Do not stare at the LED or shine the LED into your eyes or those of another person.
• Do dispose of the product according to the local laws and regulations for your region, for example,

Installation & Wiring
Beforeproceedingwithinstallationorservice,makesurethefollowingconditionsaremet:
• Ensure the tower or mast is grounded (No RF HAZARD)
• Check the mast lighting circuit is not faulty
• Ensure power lines are not ‘live’ (NO ELECTRICAL HAZARD)
• Avoid touching live circuits!
• Avoid touching any component or any part of the circuitry while the unit is operating. Do not change
components or make adjustments inside the unit with power on.
NOTE:
Theunitmustbeinstalledbyaqualiedandcertiedprofessional.
OPENING AND CLOSING THE LIGHT HEAD(S)
Remove the locking screw
In order to open the unit, the top half of the unit should be turned anti-clockwise with respect to the
bottom half. The top half will turn approximately 20mm over a positive “click” before separating from
the bottom half. Attention should be paid to the restriction caused by the internal cabling which is
secured by a cable gland.
