There are many factors that can affect obstruction marking requirements, such as weather, terrain, proximity to airports, etc. The information presented in the following pages of this catalog is intended to provide basic guidance for structure marking. The FAA and ICAO guidelines presented herein describe minimum requirements for various structure heights and descriptions of equipment to be used. Note that for Red Lighting Systems, the tower must be painted in alternating levels of aviation orange and white to provide maximum daytime visibility (red lights are for nighttime only). In the case of white or dual lighting systems, the need for painting the tower is eliminated. Height is only one important consideration when choosing how a structure is to be marked. The products presented in this catalog support the obstruction lighting requirements set forth by the FAA/ FCC and ICAO. For industrial applications, professional assistance will be required, for example in the case of aviation lighting for industrial facilities. Let your sales representative or Cooper Crouse-Hinds Customer Service (866-764-5454) help you determine which is the best lighting solution for your unique application.
