Maintenance
GENERAL
The Posi Strobe Titania does not require maintenance except cleaning as necessary. The cleaning procedure is described below. The light is permanently assembled and cannot be opened without destroying. Hence in case of damage or failure the complete light unit must be replaced as no repair is possible.
CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR AVEO ENGINEERING AVIATION LIGHTS
When you receive your Aveo Engineering Aviation Lights, they will have been factory polished and ready to install on the aircraft.
If the lights require a deeper cleaning, they should be polished with a quality lamb’s wool sheet and can also be used for deeper polishing. Under no circumstances should any petroleum based product be used to clean the lights.
Testing of the Light before Installation
All Aveo Aviation lights undergo rigorous testing prior to being released from our engineering manufacturing department. This testing involves a burn-in time as well as other function testing. No light is released for sale without undergoing this extensive operational testing.
When you receive the Posi Strobe Titania light, and wish to test the function of the light prior to installation on your aircraft, please note the following:
-
Please review the written information that is enclosed in the packaging.
Warranty information as well as a cautionary note about power supply removal is enclosed with each package. -
Remove the light from the package.
Red +14V / +28V, Nav/Pos
Yellow +14V / +28V, Anti-colision
Black Common 28 return VRTN
Blue Synchronization -
Testing of the function of the light can be done with a regular 28V/5A dc power supply (not a battery charger).
Pos/strobe:
Connect the black wire to the ground (negative) leads of a power supply, then connect the yellow or red wire to the positive (+) leads on the power supply. The light should start flashing (yellow wire = anticollision light) or lighting (red wire = white steady). Connecting the blue wires from each Aveo light together (and not to the ground or positive terminals on the battery) should show that the lights are flashing together and indicates the synchronization feature is working properly.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Under no circumstances should any power supply other than a 9-36 VDC, or a 28 volt battery be used to test the light. Do not use: Battery chargers, battery back-up power devices, or other bench avionics testing methods to test the aviation light. The light is functional between 9 and 36 volts. Use of a battery charger or other power unit to test the light will void the warranty and may damage the light.
If you have any questions about the installation of the lights, please refer to our web site: www.aveoengineering.com
Notes on Installation
Please use screw M3 (DIN912) or SHCS #6-32 or equivalent mounting screw for the installation. Spread the tightening forces evenly around the mounting hole. Stainless steel screw is recommended. Length depends upon placement location on aircraft.
Continued Airworthiness Information
Circuit/Wiring Protection
Each Posi Strobe Titania light features a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) circuit that limits internal temperatures by attenuating operating current (with a corresponding reduction of brightness) when internal temperatures reach a certain threshold. This proprietary circuitry serves to protect the light itself, and associated aircraft wiring, against a thermal runaway condition.
Periodic Inspection Procedure for Posi Strobe Titania
The Posi Strobe Titania light should always be checked for proper operation during preflight. This procedural information is already provided in all general aviation aircraft flight manuals.
The lights should be visually inspected for general condition, proper operation, and correct installation at each annual and/or 100 hours inspection. In addition refer to section 1.10 of installation manual for detailed cleaning instructions.
