Airfield Lighting

Precise and Reliable

Light is a guiding star

The ever-increasing volume of passengers and freight in global air traffic has put greater demands and heightened awareness on the safety of airside operations. Airfield lighting plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of passengers, airport personnel and pilots. Airfield environments are challenging. With intense vibration, temperature fluctuations, and severe weather conditions, airfields demand lighting systems that are robust and reliable. The team at ams OSRAM has been producing high quality, vibration resistant lamps for the airfield industry for many years and continues to work closely with leading fixture manufacturers to ensure precise and reliable optical performance.

Application Information

Runway

The right lighting on airfields is fundamental for ensuring safe take-offs and landings, especially at night and in poor weather conditions.

Taxiway

Airfield conditions are a tough challenge for both light fixtures and lamps. Systems have to be capable of withstanding highly fluctuating temperatures and vibrations.

Approach

The light from halogen lamps is flicker-free and dimmable, and with its natural infrared output, it provides first-class performance even in adverse weather conditions, such as snow and fog.
