FTS 830 Current-Driven Unidirectional Approach Lighting

The FTS 830 is a current-driven unidirectional approach light that identifies runway end or the acquisition of an active runway. It can be used as a simple runway end identifier light (REIL) or as an addition to complete any number of approach light systems like MALSR, MALSF, SSALSR, ALSF I and II for runway alignment and runway threshold marking.

The flashhead and power converter may be mounted together to form a single unit or separately to adapt to specific terrain needs.
