Discover our Airsafe’s EL-LED Series Lights
As Airsafe’s exclusive distributor in Europe, AES Europe is proud to introduce the groundbreaking EL (Elevated) LED Lights, engineered to redefine durability, flexibility, and performance in airport lighting. Whether for runways, taxiways, or aprons, the EL-LED series offers unmatched advantages tailored to modern aviation demands.
Why Choose Airsafe’s EL LED Lights?
-
Simplified Maintenance with a Standardized Body Design
One of the key innovations of the EL-LED series is its standardized body/case. Unlike conventional airfield lights that require different casings for various applications, the EL-LED series uses a single, robust structure that fits many types of airfield lighting configurations.
·Main Benefits of the Unified Design:
✅ Streamlined inventory management – Airports no longer need to stock multiple casings for different lights.
✅ Faster maintenance procedures – Technicians can quickly replace or upgrade components without extensive modifications, reducing the downtime.
✅ Cost savings on spare parts – A single body design means fewer parts to procure and store.
✅ Simplified training to maintenance staff – Greater product homogeneity in the airfield to minimize the maintenance crew work load.

One Body, Multiple Applications
The EL-LED series adapts seamlessly to diverse operational needs through its nomenclature-based versatility. The product code EL-“XX”-LED allows airports to select the ideal configuration for specific zones. For example:
- EL-RE-LED: Runway Edge Lights
- EL-TE-LED: Taxiway Edge Lights.
- EL-AP-LED: Apron Lights.
This modularity ensures scalability and future-proofing for evolving infrastructure.
-
Integrated Fuse-type Fail Open Device (FOD)
Safety is paramount in aviation, and the EL-LED series embeds the Fuse–type Fail Open Device (FOD) directly into each unit. This innovation guarantees:
-
- Fail-Safe Operation: If a fault occurs, the light automatically switches to an open circuit, preventing cascading failures.
- Robustness: Built to withstand extreme weather, heavy loads, and electromagnetic interference.
- Prevents power failures from affecting the entire lighting system: This fail-safe mechanism ensures that even if a single light experiences a fault, the rest of the system remains operational, preventing potential runway hazards.
Case of success: EL-RE-LED Runway Edge Lights in Hamburg Airport.
One of the most successful installations of the EL-LED series has been at Hamburg Airport, where AES delivered the Airsafe EL-RE-LED model that was implemented for the complete runway edge lighting.
📋Project Overview:
✈ Objective: Improve runway edge visibility while reducing energy consumption.
✈ Challenges: Ensure seamless compatibility with the airport’s existing lighting infrastructure.
✈ Solution: Installation of EL-RE-LED lights with FOD and the existing ILCMS compatibility.
✈ Results: Enhanced runway safety, reduced maintenance costs, and optimized energy efficiency.
Why Hamburg Airport Chose EL-RE-LED:
Hamburg Airport required a high-performance, future-proof lighting solution, and the EL-LED series delivered exceptional results:
- Increased durability – The lights withstand extreme weather conditions.
- Energy-efficient operation – Lower energy consumption compared to conventional lighting.
- Seamless system integration – Full compatibility with existing ILCMS infrastructure.
