White LED Helipad Obstruction Light — ICAO Compliant | Hardy Lighting

Hardy Lighting Low Intensity LED Obstruction Light — White

The Hardy Lighting White LED Obstruction Light is a precision aviation light engineered for helipad and rooftop installations where reliable, regulation-compliant white illumination is critical. Available in two variants — the FATO Light at 100cd and the Approach Light at 350cd — this smart, microprocessor-controlled light is fully compliant with ICAO Annex 14, CAP437, and FAA L-810 standards. Designed and assembled in the UAE, it is built to guide helicopter pilots safely during approach and take-off operations, night after night.


Two Purpose-Built Variants

FATO Light — 100cd Provides crisp, uniform 100-candela white illumination to clearly define the Final Approach and Take-Off (FATO) zone. Essential for helipad boundary marking and pilot situational awareness during low-visibility operations.

Approach Light — 350cd High-intensity 350-candela white light engineered to cut through darkness and guide incoming flights with precision. Suitable for rooftop helipads and elevated helideck installations where long-range visibility is required.
