Variable guidance signs

Variable Guidance Signs or Variable Message Signs

The variable sign responds to the need of airports to make safer and more efficient use of space. The basis of the sign is the FLAT-Light TGS in which a matrix of RGB LEDs is built-in. This guarantees the strength and easy installation.

Due to the smart application of materials, forced cooling is unnecessary. At this moment the sign is connected to 230Vac and communicates with the CMS in the tower via an I / O module and fiber optic. The possibility of power supply via the AGL circuit (6.6A) and communication via the same circuit will soon be added to this.

Examples of applications:

  • Control of towing traffic at intersections with the runway.
  • Real-time information about taxiways, docking and de-icing stations.
  • Temporary solution for signs that need to be replaced after serious damage.

Features

  • Low energy consumption because of innovative LED concept.
  • Limited maintenance.
  • Highest durability supported by long term warranty.
  • Compliance with actual EASA/ICAO standards.
  • Unique resistance against dust, solid objects and moisture.
  • Exceptional innovative, functional and aesthetic design.
  • QR code for technical information per sign on any location.
