Hely Heliport LED Lighting Controller 600W 48V DC

Hely Heliport LED Lighting Controller 600W 48V DC

The Hely heliport LED lighting controller is the compact power and command unit for a complete heliport lighting system. It suits integrators and heliport operators who want one 48 V DC source for every fitting, with central intensity control. The unit delivers 600 W and guards the installation against overload, overvoltage and heat.

Benefits

• One box for the whole deck: it powers TLOF, FATO, Aiming and Approach lights plus the Beacon.
• Reserved beacon capacity: 120 W of the 600 W is set aside for the Beacon, so the beacon never competes with the perimeter circuit.
• Simple operation: an LCD display and three intensity steps, as ICAO requires for heliport lights.
• Protected installation: full protection against overload, overvoltage (57.6-67.2 V) and temperature.
• Universal input: 110-240 V AC in, 48 V DC out, so it fits Gulf and European supply networks alike.
• Outdoor enclosure: electrostatically painted anodised aluminium rated IP65.

Applications and installation

This controller is the centre of the Hely heliport lighting system. Lights fed at 48 V DC from it gain the three-step dimming function; the same lights wired straight to mains lose that control. Mount it where the operator can reach it, outdoors or in a plant room. Its rated ceiling is +40 degrees C, so in Gulf summers choose a shaded or air-conditioned position. Keep the connected fittings within 480 W, since 120 W stays reserved for the Beacon. Designed and manufactured in Europe.

Frequently asked questions

How many lights can I connect to the Hely heliport LED lighting controller? Their combined load must stay within 480 W, because 120 W of the 600 W belongs to the Beacon.

Do I need it in order to dim the lights? Yes. The three-step control of the Hely fittings works only when the controller supplies them.

Can it go outdoors? Yes, the enclosure is IP65 and marked for outdoor use within -20 degrees C to +40 degrees C.
