Overview A704 solar MIRL runway lights meet FAA and ICAO requirements for medium intensity runway edge lights, runway threshold lights, runway end lights and simple approach lighting. The solar runway lights are available in 3 battery sizes enabling up to 1000 hours of runtime and worldwide use. The A704 solar runway light is lower cost than traditional runway lighting — with no sacrifice in quality, durability or service. Powered by high-endurance batteries designed for aerospace with a lifetime of over 2500 cycles, these airfield lighting products are built to last for over 20 years, with no maintenance for 7 years on average. When maintenance is required, the process is simple and quick (less than 3 minutes per light) so the runway stays operational without interruption.
Advanced Design- Improved optical efficiency with the latest LEDs
- High-efficiency monocrystalline solar panels
- Reduced standby power consumption
- Multiple battery sizes for best value-for-performance
- Optional wireless control provides remote operation using either 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz communication
Easy Installation Limited crew, no trenching, no airfield interruptions. Just place the A704 and it emits light dusk-to-dawn while maintaining its battery.
Low Maintenance The A704 integrates solar panels, battery, electronics and LED light source into a compact, stand-alone unit requiring minimal maintenance for 7 years.
Reliable The Energy Management System (EMS) monitors all operations to provide consistent output in the harshest environments. Testing to ICAO, FAA and MIL specifications ensures high performance for many years.
Trusted Thousands of installations worldwide; these solar LED lights operate year-round at over 500 airports and military bases.
