Congratulations! By choosing to purchase an Avlite light, you have become the
owner of one of the most advanced solar LED airfield lights in the world.
Since 2004 Avlite Systems has been designing and manufacturing the most advanced navigation
aids. Particular care has been taken to ensure your light gives years of trouble free service.
As a commitment to producing the highest quality products for our customers, Avlite has been
independently certified as complying with the requirements of ISO 9001:2008 quality management
system.
By taking a few moments to browse through this booklet, you will become familiar with the versatility of
your light, and be able to maximise its operating function.
Please remember to complete the Avlite warranty registration card accompanying your light.
The solar module of the light converts sunlight to an electrical current that is used to charge the
battery. The battery provides power to operate the light at night.
The flasher unit has very low current requirements. A microprocessor drives an ultra-bright
LED through a DC/DC converter, which enables the LEDs to operate within the manufacturer’s
specifications. The battery is protected from over-charging within the circuit to ensure maximum
battery life.
On darkness, the microprocessor will initiate a program check and after approximately 1 minute will
turn on.
Avlite Systems is a world-class solar lighting systems manufacturer with a proven
reputation for rapid, innovative, and agile technology solutions designed specifically
for defense, government, civil and humanitarian aid operations in the most remote,
toughest environments.
Electronics
Avlite employs leading in-house electronic engineers in the design and development of software and
related circuitry. All individual electronic components are sourced directly by Avlite procurement staff
ensuring that only the highest quality components are used in our products.
LED Technology
All aviation lights use the latest advancements in LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology as a light
source. The major advantage of LEDs over traditional light sources is well established in that they
typically have an operational life in excess of 100,000 hours, resulting in substantial savings to
maintenance and servicing costs.
Precision Construction
Commitment to investing in the design and construction of injection-moulded parts including optic
lenses, light bases and a range of other components ensures that all Avlite products are of a
consistent and superior quality.
Optical Performance
Avlite manufactures a range of aviation LED lenses moulded from multi-cavity dies. The company has
superior in-house lens manufacturing capabilities to support outstanding optical performance.
Award-winning, Patented Technology
Several United States and Australian patent registrations are held on Avlite’s range of innovative
designs, with other regional patents pending in Canada, United Kingdom and Europe.

AV‐C310‐ILAModel
Avlite’s Solar powered ICAO LIOL available as Type A only on the C310 chassis, and as Type A
and B on the C410 chassis is a robust, completely self-contained solar powered LED obstruction
light.
The AV-C310-ILA model has four 3 watt (12watt total) premium-grade solar modules
integrated into the solar chassis, and mounted to collect sunlight at all angles. This unit
complies with the requirements for ICAO Low Intensity Obstruction Lights Type A 2009
Standard.
The AV-C410-ILAB model has four larger 5watt panels (20 watt total) for use in areas of lower
sunlight to maximise solar collection. This unit complies with the requirements for ICAO Low
Intensity Obstruction Lights Type A & B 2009 Standard.
The solar array charges an internal battery during daylight hours, and at dusk the light will
automatically begin operation.
The rugged design of this self-contained light ensures up to 12 years of reliable service with
minimal ongoing maintenance.

Optional External ON/OFF Switch
The AV-C310-ILA and AV-C410-ILAB can be fitted with an external ON/OFF switch below the solar
panel at the base of the unit. The ON/OFF switch may be useful if the unit is only required for short
periods and is often being moved or needs to be stored often, and disconnecting the battery is not
viable.
Optional External Battery Charging Port
The AV-C310-ILA and AV-C410-ILAB can be fitted with an external battery charging port MIL-STD 2 Pin
connector. (ITT Cannon Part Number = MS3111E82P)
It is found below the solar panel at the base of the unit.
If the light is being stored for more than 1 month then the battery should be regularly recharged.
Please see ‘Long Term Battery Storage’ in the Maintenance & Servicing section of this manual.
You may purchase a suitable battery charger from Avlite
Or/
Use a connector that mates with the 2Pin connector on the unit.
Pin 1(A) = Battery Positive (+)
Pin 2 (B) = Battery Negative (-)
Optional IR Remote Control
The IR remote is used to communicate with Avlite lighting products that have an IR sensor fitted.
The remote control is used to control functions.
Optional GSM Cell-Phone Monitoring (AV-C410-ILAB Model only)
GSM Cell-Phone Monitoring enables operators to remotely monitor the status of their installations. The
system can also be configured to send out alarm SMS text messages to designated cellular telephone
numbers. Users can also have alarms and reports sent to designated email
addresses.

Activation
Charging the Battery
New lights should be left in the sun for 1-2 days to ensure battery is charged before placing in
service. Please note, light will re-charge even when toggle switch is turned to ‘OFF’ position.
Preferred Installation Location
For best light performance, ensure solar modules are not covered and are in clear view of the
sky with no shadows.

Installing the Light Assembly to the Rubber Tile
The completed light – rubber tile assembly is to be mounted on a surface capable of supporting 20kg
minimum. Securing the rubber tile to the mounting surface is optional, however, Avlite recommend that
the tile be secured at a minimum of two points.
a. Insert bolts through the 4 x holes in the tile, entering from the bottom face (within the recess). It
may be necessary to use a rubber mallet to insert the bolts.
b. Fit the light over the bolts on the top face of the tile.
c. Install a penny washer and a Nylock nut on each bolt. Tighten nuts to finger-tightness.
d. Place the completed light assembly in the desired location.
e. Using a hammer, drive steel pegs through the holes in the corners of the rubber tile being careful
not to damage the solar panels.
Note: - Other means of securing the tile may be used where the mounting surface is not suited to the
use of steel pegs.
Installing the Light Assembly to the Frangible Stake Mount
The completed light - mount plate assembly is to be mounted on the stake in firm soil (not loose sand,
screenings or other unbound material).
a. Fit the light on the top of the mounting plate. Insert bolts through the four holes in the mount,
entering from the bottom. Install a penny washer and a Nylock nut on each bolt. Tighten Nylock
nuts.
b. Use a sledge hammer to drive the stake into the soil at the chosen location. Drive the stake down
until the bottom of the stake sleeve is at ground level.
c. Fit the boss of the mount plate into the shorter barrel of the frangible sleeve. Using a 6mm allen
key, tighten the socket head cap screw against the stake mount boss.
d. Fit the light and mounting plate assembly on top of the stake. The longer barrel of the frangible
sleeve should completely cover the stake sleeve. Using a 6mm allen key, tighten the bottom
socket head cap screws against the stake sleeve.
