Aircraft Beacons Parts List | Aircraft Beacon Lights

Are you in need of anti collision lights? Also known as beacon lights or strobe lights, anti-collision lights are the lights used in an aircraft to improve visibility and prevent collisions. While they have traditionally been used with incandescent bulbs, more recently, aircraft implement light emitting diodes. Here at Paragon Purchasing, we carry many types of anti collision and aircraft beacon lights parts such as 01-0271325-00, 01-0410823-00, 01-0417808-00, 01-0417808-01, 01-0430011-00 for aircraft models 71325, 71325, A447, A448, A441. Read on below for more information on the different types of aircraft anti collision beacon lights.

While there are various types of anti collision lights, the two most popular types in the market are beacons and strobe lights. Beacons lights are red flashing lights that are fitted towards the upper and bottom fuselage of an airplane. The beacons are designed to give notice to the ground crew as well as to other aircraft that there is an engine that is starting up, running or shutting down, or that the aircraft is about to start moving. Some beacons will spin to create this flashing effect and which can increase their visibility. Aircraft Beacon lights are bright enough to be seen from the ground, and can be used to identify aircraft from the ground in dark or overcast conditions where the plane itself isn't completely visible.

Meanwhile, strobe lights are white lights that flash on the back points and on the furthest left, right parts of both large and small aircraft. The brightest lights on the aircraft, strobe lights are designed to signal to others that an aircraft is entering or approaching an active runway, or for visibility in dark, clear sky. Strobe lights can sometimes be switched off during fog or cloud, as they can further obscure the pilot's sight outside of the aircraft by reflecting off water particles.
