The Model 70900 series LED anti-collision light assembly meets the requirements of FAR 91.205(c)(3).

CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS: The 70900 series LED anti-collision light assembly is designed with 10 vertical columns consisting of 3 LEDs each. Should any one LED or any vertical column fail, the unit must be repaired or replaced.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: The following information is to assist

in the installation of a Whelen LED Flashing Anti-collision Light System.

1. The installation procedure described in the following text will be confined to a single light installation, but is identical for multiple light installations.

2. Prepare the aircraft for means to secure the LED Flashing Anticollision Light assembly (see reference AC 43.13-2A, Ch. 9).

3. 14/28 VDC (+) and (-) ground leads equipped with an appropriate sized breaker to be supplied to the LED Flashing Anti-collision Light Assembly System. Both leads must be connected by an approved FAA conne ct ion. Insure that the wire leads and the pressur e venting tube are all clear of any obstructions and ty-wrap as required. The pressure venting tube may be trimmed to minimum length of 1” from base.

4. Install the light assembly by securing to aircraft using #6-3 2 x 3/8” (maximum length) approved hardware. NOTE: Lens mounting screws installed at 5-7 in./lbs. of torque.

5. Check all avionics systems for interference from this installation.

6. A flight check should be performed by a properly certified pilot.

7. All inverted (bottom) mounted units shall require waterproofing of the unused mounting holes. An application of single-part silicone (RTV) or equivalent applied into mounting holes is recommended (see illustration on page 2). Inverted and/or standard mounted units, when necessary, may require waterproofing around any open area where water could get in. Specifically, the lens to the flasher base assembly, and the flashe r base assembly t o the a ircraft. Note: It is permissable to drill a 1/8” hole in the center of the lens for bottom mount units.

8. Update aircraft records, complete Form 337 and obtain FAA field approval for installation.
