Purpose

At an airport, the threshold is marked to identify the beginning of the runway that is available for landing.

The marking is done using paint but also with threshold lights.

Threshold lights are unidirectional GREEN lights mounted at the beginning of the runway. A minimum of six lights are used equally spaced in a line.

If the threshold is displaced the threshold lights are placed on the side of the runway in two lines of 5 lights.

Vista Photometric Specifications

VISTA Threshold system is offering photometric performances matching 10 or 30% of the ICAO requirements for High Intensity Lighting (equivalent to Brightness steps 1, 2, 3, and 4 of standard, High-Intensity CCR), corresponding to over 90% of the practical requests in terms of lighting, at a fraction of the cost.

We use OSRAM LEDs and specially designed lenses for the best optical performance.

As an option, we can add IR LEDs for NVG.
