As recommended by aviation standards, every heliport should be equipped with at least one wind vane. For safe and accurate operation, it should be installed in a clear, unobstructed location, free from interference by nearby objects or rotor downwash, and must remain visible to pilots in the air.
Illuminated Wind Direction Indicator
The illuminated wind vane provides a clear indication of wind speed and direction for pilots, both day and night, making it an essential safety aid for all types of airports.
The system features a 360° bearing rotation gear for accurate wind tracking and includes two 100W metal tungsten halogen lamps to illuminate the wind sleeve at night, along with a red obstruction light mounted on top for added visibility.
Constructed from corrosion- and heat-resistant nylon fabric, the wind sleeve ensures long service life in demanding environments. The unit operates on a 220V, 50Hz power supply.
