  • 1Visibility - the portable lighted runway closure marker is clearly visible from a distance of 5 to 8 km at day, and minimally from a distance of 9.7 km at night.
  • 2Dimensions - each light cross arm measures 4.26 meters in length.
  • 3Mobility - the X‑marker trailer is easy to transport to the desired location on the airport runway.
  • 413 LED lights – the lamps flash 2.5 seconds on, 2.5 seconds off. Light intensity: 79,560 cd.

  • 6Easy and quick installation within 5 minutes - it takes one person 5 min to assemble or disassemble the portable lighted runway closure marker.
  • 7120 hours of independent operation - the diesel engine provides electrical power for 120 hours of continuous operation on a single tank of fuel.
  • 8Backup power source – the emergency battery continues to power lights for 2 hours.
  • 9Possibility to transport 2 portable lighted runway closure markers simultaneously - proper marking of a closed runway requires marking with lighted closure markers at both the beginning and the end of the runways or taxiways. To reduce the transportation costs and time to the desired site, we designed the portable lighted runway closure marker so that it is possible to join 2 crosses together.

Lights

The portable lighted runway closure marker consists of 13 LED lights (3 pcs on each arm, 1 pc in the cross middle). The lights alternately flash at intervals of 2,5 seconds.

The emitted color is "white" according to CS ADR-DSN.U.930.

Visibility:

The power of the LED lights must ensure clear visibility of the portable lighted runway closure marker at a distance of 5 to 8 km at day and at least 9.7 km at night.

Three Light Modes

The LED lights can operate in one of 3 modes:

  1. Day mode - the lights flash at the intensity required for daytime operation
  2. Night mode - the lights flash at the intensity required for night operation
  3. AUTO mode - the light sensor automatically adjusts the intensity of the lights according to outdoor light conditions

Deployment of the portable lighted runway closure marker by one person in 5 minutes!

The portable lighted runway closure marker enables easy assembly and disassembly by one person within 5 minutes. After placing the light cross in the desired place, the trailer must be secured with outriggers. After unlocking the latches, deploy the individual cross arms to a full length of 4.26 m. Then raise the cross to a vertical position using a manual winch. Its position is adjustable up to an angle of 5° from the vertical. The last step consists in starting the diesel engine and activating the lights.

Possibility to transport two portable lighted runway closure markers

In case of deteriorating weather conditions, the airport runway must be closed quickly. A closed runway is required to be marked at both ends! To minimize the transportation time of the portable lighted runway closure marker, we made it so that two independent units could be transported at the same time.
