Offshore Helideck Zone 1 & 2
PMAPI offers a complete Zone 1 & 2 solution to CAA-UK CAP 437 and ICAO Annex 14 requirements for Offshore Helideck Aviation Lighting, which includes our PHARODECK™ Touch Down Perimeter Marking (TD/PM) system, perimeter lights, helideck status lights, surface floodlights, illuminated wind sock and helideck lighting controller.
As defined in the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) Civil Aviation Publication (CAP) 437 standards, TDPM Circle & H systems will be mandatory in UK waters after March 31, 2018, after which, any helidecks out of compliance will be limited to daylight flights only.
To ensure compliance by this date, please contact your local representative.
Featured Product
PharoDeck™
The PharoDeck™ lighting system comprises of segments (“Circle” mark) and subsections (“H” mark). The lighting system is suitable for installation and operation within hazardous area zones 1 & 2.
The segments and subsections are electrically connected through the laminated aluminium base plates using an integrated Ex “e” terminal housing. The junction boxes are connected using halogen free, low smoke and flame retardant light system cable and protected by low profile aluminium cable covers. which are friction coated along with the segments and subsections.
✓ Lens elements are a bespoke design made from clear tempered glass used for its optical clarity, increased mechanical strength, low thermal expansion coefficient, and chemical resistance
✓ Our Unique system design incorporates flexi PCBS within pre-assembled deck plates
✓ Increased mechanical protection due to cabling method
✓ Fault monitoring indication software custom designed to meet our client requirements
PharoDeck Easily Maintained for Long Term Solution
In House Design and Install
The system is designed to provide our customers with a cost effective offering that can be easily maintained as a long term solution to Helideck lighting.
The modular design allows for accelerated installation time due to the interconnection of the cables being incorporated into preassembled deck plates.
- Minimal on-deck connection time
- Accelerated Installation
Serviceability & Maintenance
The segment design is engineered such that in the unlikely event that a failure of element segment/sub-section is encountered, a replacement segment can be readily fitted by means of accessing the internal junction box to remove the connections, then removing the segment from the mounting plate and replacing the segment.
- Reduction in costs for system replacement parts, and System O&M
- Simplistic change outs, with recommended spares as part of system package
