5.3 Electronic leveling device

5.3.1 Introduction

This system is suited for fittings mounted on safety approach masts, when it is not possible to get access to the top of the

mast in its standing position.

5.3.2 Composition

The system consists of a support similar to the one used with the standard simplified leveling device, see §

Standard levelling

device

. However, the support is equipped with a sensor activated with a switch, with a 10 meters long cable. The operator can

then operate the sensor from the ground, and read the elevation angle measurement when the mast is tilted to the ground.

5.3.3 Procedure

The following table instructs you on how to work with the device.

1. Lower the mast.

Note

See instruction manual of the supplied masts.

2. If the mast has been correctly installed, i.e. its tilting axis is perpendicular to the center line, a light with 0° toe-in will have

its front surface fully horizontal when the mast is tilted over 90° (down to the horizontal). With the mast in this position,

adjust the light by turning it around the tube, and then tighten the bracing clamp.
