Product Description

Dual‑mode aircraft strobe power supply that controls one, two, or three strobe lightheads and manages simultaneous or alternating flash patterns for wingtip and tail lighting on aircraft operating from a direct current electrical system.

0 1. Overview

Within the HDACF family the power unit delivers accumulated 42 joules of energy to each wingtip lighthead in alternating mode and 21 joules to each light in simultaneous mode, with a three‑light configuration that drives wingtip lights simultaneous at 21 joules each while alternating against a third light at 42 joules. A trigger selector outlet accepts a switch in place of a jumper so outlets feeding wingtip positions 2 and 3 can be switched off while the tail outlet 1 remains energized for ground operations. The input operating range extends from 10 to 30 VDC, supporting both 14‑volt and 28‑volt aircraft electrical systems. Power consumption values are 7.0 amps at 14 VDC and 3.5 amps at 28 VDC. Weight is 2.274 pounds, and the housing dimensions are 8 inches by 6.25 inches by 3 inches.
