FAA AC 150/5390-2 Heliport Design Guide
FAA Engineering Brief 67
Transport Canada TP14371, AGA 7.17
ICAO Annex 14, Volume II
The SIGNET is a cast modular aluminum LED fixture that will be used on Helidecks and Heliports for flood lighting of the Final Approach & Take-off (FATO) and Touchdown & Liftoff Area (TLOF) outside of the Perimeter areas, to illuminate any obstructions and the landing zone. The fixture provides provides a 80° wide beam by 10° vertical beam, that minimizes any glare.
Note: The FAA has not evaluated floodlights for effectiveness in visual acquisition of a heliport. However, if ambient light does not adequately illuminate markings for night operations, use floodlights to illuminate the TLOF, the FATO, and/or the parking area. Take care, however, to place floodlights clear of the TLOF, the FATO, the safety area, and the approach/departure surfaces, and transitional surfaces and ensure floodlights and their associated hardware do not constitute an obstruction hazard. Aim floodlights down to provide adequate illumination on the surface.
