2.3 ELECTRONIC SECTION
The electronic section consists of the following circuits:
Current / current conversion circuit
LED command circuit
Control circuit
2.3.1 Current / current conversion circuit (patented)
This electronic section provide a conversion from the input current value (within
range from 2.8 A to 6.6 A) to the specified LED current value.
This conversion, performed in one transformation only, allows to achieve several
benefits:
minimize the power losses
significant increase of efficiency
high input power factor
independent form the CCR topology: the CCR may have any output current
waveform
no percentage of load dependent: the CCR can feed without any problem also
few lights in the series circuit
isolation transformers of smaller size can be used, respect to those used with the
equivalent fixtures equipped with halogen lamps
The input circuit is protected against over-voltage, tested in accordance with the
requirements in FAA “Engineering Brief N°67” document.
2.3.2 LED command circuit
A PWM technique is used to command the LEDs. As known LEDs need to be supplied
with a constant current; therefore in order to vary the luminous emission with a
proper linearity is necessary the supply current will be applied at impulses. In other
words, the LED luminous output depends on the time of application (duty-cycle) of
constant current impulses.
2.3.3 Control circuit
The main task of the control circuit is to assure the correct LED light emission
according to the series circuit current.
To perform this features, the circuit is provided with a current sensor that generate a
signal proportional to the series circuit current.
This signal is analyzed by a DSP which perform a RMS conversion of the input current.

Edition 23/04/2019 Supersedes edition 06/03/2019
LED INSET RUNWAY EDGE LIGHT LIRE
INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR USE, INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
The RMS conversion give a good accuracy with any input current waveform.
Other functions:
diagnostic, auxiliary voltage control and LED status control. In case of any LED
failure or relative power supply circuit failure, the electronic control circuit
commands the intervention of the monitoring device so that the secondary side
of the isolation transformer becomes open, like in the case of an incandescent
lamp failure. This features is essential when the monitoring option is required
events recording (not-volatile memory) for diagnostic purposes
PC operator interface through serial connection: this features allows to calibrate
the brightness depending on the current, to modify the emission curve, to read
the events occurred during the operating time
2.4 ARCTIC KIT
The optional arctic kit is in compliance with FAA “Engineering Brief N°67” document
and it prevents from the ice over the prisms area.
The arctic kit is connected in series to the PCB and it is consists of a thermostat (two
in case of fixture with double cable lead) and one or two heaters. It starts when the
dome temperature is less than about -1°C and turns-off when the dome temperature
reaches about 10°C.
Arctic kit consumption is less than 40 VA per plug.

Make sure the recess size and depth are maintained within the specified limits. All
surfaces of the recess must be clean and dry. If any of these surfaces is damp, it is
desirable that it be dried and blown clean with a compressed air blast. The recess
side walls must be perpendicular to the pavement surface. The bottom surface must
be flat or slightly concave to assure that the shallow base rest securely and in true
position. The recess can best be drilled using a diamond-faced core drill in a sturdy,
stable drill rig.
Mark on the pavement surface the aiming direction of the light by chalk, nails or
other devices.


/
Properly arrange the leads in the wireways using small pieces of insulating
tape if necessary.
7


Completely cover the bottom of the base with sealer material, apply a thin
coat of sealer to the bottom of the drilled hole to assure a bond between the
bottom of the light base and the drilled hole. It may be necessary to place
temporary plugs so as to block the wireways entrances into the drilled hole
(METHOD “A”) or the cable ducts entrance (METHOD “B”). The plugs will retain
the sealer while it begins to dry up.
ATTENTION: avoid starting the installation when the ambient temperature is
below 10°C (86°F), unless the sealer used is designed to dry up at a lower
temperature.
