Bright Lights on HSV Flight Deck
01 Jun 2006
Oxley Group Australia won a contract last year from Incat Australia Pty Ltd to design and supply a lighting system for the helicopter deck on board the US military high speed vessel HSV X1 Joint Venture. The system has since been proven by the end user in extensive helicopter night landing trials.
The lighting system, using the latest Oxley LED technology and components, was produced in Australia jointly with BAE Systems. The installation on HSV X1 Joint Venture was completed, from concept through to commissioning, in conjunction with Incat within the challenging time scale. It involved the design of a complete flight deck lighting suite as well as the helicopter control station.
In addition to excellent LED lighting characteristics, the system demonstrates considerable savings of weight and reduced power consumption, advantages applicable to other Oxley marine lighting systems. The company has European manufacturing facilities in Cumbria UK.
