PAPI lights (precision approach path indicator lights) are a key part of the airfield ground lighting system used at airports, aerodromes and airstrips. This is a type of visual aid on a runway that helps pilots to maintain the correct approach and land the aircraft safely. It warns pilots about too high or too low approaches.
PAPI slope angle is set quickly and simply using three legs. The front legs of the PAPI level the unit laterally whilst the rear leg provides the elevation adjustment. Corrosive resistant construction using light alloys and stainless steel make S4GA PAPI a robust device. The simple design and optical efficiency make this a first-class choice of PAPI for the international aviation world.
Solar PAPI gives Airport independence from the electrical grid. PAPI is powered by a solar engine resistant to the most rigorous weather conditions – from the hot African desert to the frosty Antarctica climate. PAPI light system is remotely controlled and can be easily integrated into existing AGL.
S4GA offers 2 types of PAPI airport lights:
