SILAS-H (Solar Illumination Aeronautical System) satisfies the need to provide heliports with a low cost system to improve the flight safety in bad weather conditions or to extend the operational working hours also during night time and in case of low visibility.
SILAS-H is an integrated system very easy to install, not requiring any site preparation, and can be configured with various light typologies, to satisfy the different operational requirements of heliports.
SILAS-H is based on the SCB (Smart Controlled Biofly) lights, which does not require external power supply, being connected to a battery charged through solar panels.
The system may operate also in mixed working mode (solar/external power); in this configuration the lights are connected to the external power, via a dedicated plug. Then, in case of power loss, the system will continue to operate via the battery powered by the solar cells, without the need of external UPS or power generator.
SILAS-H is the integrated system optimized for the need of all heliport configurations::
Heliport
Helipads
Helicopter rescue pitches
Temporary helipads
