Nebulon™ is a LED position light assembly ETSO Compliant red and green
position lights, low drag and low profile designed for aircraft wing
position light. This powerful LED lighting system features easy
installation, fail safe system, unbreakable construction, waterproof and
high candela output
List of the major components (by part number) that make up the
equipment complying with the standards prescribed in ETSO.
When installed on the aircraft, using the aircraft’s power (28 volts), the light will
be at its maximum intensity. (Meet the requirement of TSO-C30C, Aircraft Position Light)
Nebulon™ should only be powered by 18-36 Vdc, typically a 24 volt aircraft
battery.
9. TESTING OF THE LIGHT BEFORE INSTALLATION
All Aveo Aviation lights undergo rigorous testing prior to being released from
our engineering manufacturing department. This testing involves a burn-in time
as well as other function testing. No light is released for sale without undergoing
this extensive operational testing.
When you receive the Nebulon™ light, and wish to test the function of the
light prior to installation on your aircraft, please note the following:
1. Please review the written information that is enclosed in the packaging.
Warranty information as well as a cautionary note about power
supply removal is enclosed with each package.
2. Remove the light from the package. Note that there is connector with:
– Negative lead
– Positive lead
3. Testing of the function of the light can be done with a regular 28V/5A dc
power supply (not a battery charger). Connect the negative pole to the
ground (negative) leads of a power supply, and then connect the positive
pole to the positive (+) leads on the power supply. The position light should
start lighting. When installed on the aircraft, using the aircraft’s power (28
volts), the light will be at its maximum intensity.
After testing, the light can be installed on the aircraft.
IMPORTANT
1. Under no circumstances should any power supply other than a 18-36 Vdc, or a
24 volt battery be used to test the light. Do not use: Battery chargers,
battery back-up power devices, or other bench avionics testing methods
to test the aviation light. The light is functional between 18 and 36 volts.
Use of a battery charger or other power unit to test the light will void the
warranty and may damage the light.
NOTES:
If you have any questions about the installation of the lights, please refer to our
web site: www.aveoengineering.com, and check FAQ and other links on our
aviation lights web page.
10. CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR AVEO ENGINEERING
AVIATION LIGHTS
When you receive your Aveo Engineering Aviation Lights, they will have
been factory polished and ready to install on the aircraft. Upon installation, just
give the lights a good coat or two of a quality automotive polish. This should
protect the lights from dirt and other environmental factors. Once or twice a
month, just refresh the polish and hand buff to bring back the lights to factory like
new condition.
If the lights need a deeper cleaning, they can be polished with a good
automotive cleaner wax and/or a liquid polishing compound. The liquid
polishing compounds can normally be found at automotive parts stores or an
automotive paint store. After using a polishing compound, just give the
lights another coat of an automotive polish and you will again protect the
lights against dirt, etc. An electric buffing machine, with a lamb’s w
can also be used for deeper cleaning and polishing. Under no circumstances
should any petroleum based product be used to clean the lights.
For continued UV protection Aveo Engineering offers NonocloakTM UV Protectant
Spray and Cleaner, available at any Aveo Engineering Authorized installation
Center.

11. NOTES ON INSTALLATION
Spread the tightening forces evenly around the mounting hole. Lights are to be
instal led using MS35206-232 screws or equivalent.
12. CONTINUED AIRWORTH INESS INFORMATION
This product is delivered with EASA Form1 which is for the operator to report any
occurrences to Aveo E n gineering as the E TSO holder. The form contains the Aveo
Engineering telephone number and the occurrence e-mail address
(occurrence@aveoengineering.com
the ETSO holder must report occurrences having a potential for an unsafe condition
within 72 hours.
a. Circuit/Wiring
Protection
Each Galactica series light features a Negative Temperature
Coefficient
(NTC) circuit that limits internal temperatures by attenuating
operating current (with a corresponding reduction of brightness)
when internal temperatures reach a certain threshold. This proprietary
circuitry serves to protect the light itself, and associated aircraft wiring,
against a thermal runaway condition.
b. Periodic Inspection Procedure for Galactica
The Nebulon™ lights should always be checked for proper operation
during preflight. This procedural information is already provided in all
general aviation aircraft flight manuals.
The lights should be visually inspected for general condition, proper
operation, and correct installation at each annual and/or 100 hour
inspection. Any debris or atmospheric deposits accumulated on the
surface of the lights should be removed using a UV Wax such as
Farecia Profile UV Wax to ensure ongoing optical clarity. In addition
refer to section 10 of installation manual for detailed cleaning
instructions.
Turn the lights and do the following:
1. Put on polarized sunglasses or welder goggles to prevent eye
damage when looking into the lights.
2. Examine the individual LEDs as per the diagram below. If any of
the conditions as indicated on the diagram are exceeded, the light
shall be removed and sent to Aveo Engineering for replacement
under the Aveo Lifetime Warranty Program.
