Aviation PAPI Precision Approach Path Indicator

Detailed introduction

Aviation PAPI, short for Precision Approach Path Indicator, is an essential visual aid widely used in aviation for precise aircraft approach and landing. It consists of a row of lights positioned at the side of the runway. The PAPI system utilizes a combination of red and white lights to provide pilots with accurate guidance on their vertical descent during final approach.

Aviation PAPI is designed to help pilots maintain the correct glide path, ensuring a safe and smooth landing. The lights display different color combinations depending on the aircraft's position in relation to the glide slope. If the aircraft is too high, the lights will appear all white, indicating a need to descend. Conversely, if the aircraft is too low, the lights will appear all red, signaling the need to climb.

The PAPI system is highly reliable and widely adopted at airports around the world. It enhances aviation safety by reducing the risk of runway accidents and providing pilots with clear visual cues for approach and landing. Aviation PAPI is an indispensable tool that contributes to the efficiency, accuracy, and overall success of aircraft operations.

Aviation PAPI

 

     Overview:

Aviation PAPI precision approach path indicator AO-HP-PAPI is used to guide aircraft to approach the runway at an appropriate altitude. It is specially designed to accommodate the helicopter's steep angles of descent and deliberate speeds.

There are two Colors which to show two wide horizontal beams in different colored light. And it is projected in fan shaped array into the incoming flight pattern.:

 

     Compliance:

International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), Aerodromes, Annex 14.

 

     Features:

1. Adopt super bright brand LED, high intensity with a lower energy consumption.

2. Input voltage available in DC(12-48V DC) or AC(100-265V AC 50-60Hz).

3. Clear polycarbonate lens for converging light and also provides corrosion resistance and UV protection.

4. Efficient photometric design provides excellent light distribution, make sure meet ICAO and FAA demand.

5. Housing material is stainless steel which has strong corrosion resistance, Shock and Vibrations protection.

6. UV protection Powder coated bright yellow color base make better visibility.

7. Fragile coupling reduce the secondary damage to helicopters effectively.
