Introduction

The purpose of this Quick Start Guide is to present a brief summary of the steps involved in deploying your Avlite provided floodlight. Your product will 

consist of a prewired and preassembled AV-HL-FL light fixture (and solar assembly for solar variants) on a frangible mount assembly.

Theory Of Operations

AV-HL-FL-PV model: The solar module of the light converts sunlight to an electrical current that is used to charge the battery during daylight 

hours. The battery provides power to operate the light at night. For optimum solar charge performance, it is recommended that the unit is 

orientated with the solar panels facing East-West.

AV-HL-FL-DC and UM models: The wired fixtures are connected to one another as part of a daisy chain configuration where power, control and 

monitoring points are wired in parallel utilizing a single cable route per lighting circuit and junction boxes per fixture. The HLS is controlled from 

a primary Helipad Controller which provides power and state transitions to each connected lighting circuit.

AV-HL-FL

Avlite’s floodlight has been specifically designed for helipads to provide uniform surface lighting where the TLOF and FATO lights need to be 

supplemented with floodlighting. The fixture is available in solar (PV) and wired versions (DC and Universal Mains UM).

Install the LED Floodlight Units and solar 

assembly (if required)

Set up a number of concrete pads at equidistant points 
around the TLOF at ground level. The concrete pads 
should have a dimension of approximately 400mm 
x 400mm with sufficient depth depending on soil 
conditions. Embed 4 bolts, using the Mount Base as a 
placing template, fitting level when dry. As an alternative, 
it is possible to use rubber tiles instead of concrete pads. 
Repeat for installing solar assembly, which requires two 
concrete pads with 400 mm between the mounting 
centrepoints.

AV-HL-FL-PV model only: Connect the LED Floodlight Unit 
to the Solar Assembly using the Avlite supplied 2m long 
cable.

Adjustment of LED Floodlight Unit

Point the LED Floodlight Unit into the desired direction, 
ensuring that the floodlight unit is level and the height is 
below 250mm.

Loosen the two nut screws at the back of the LED 
Floodlight Unit.

Adjust the Light Head as required by turning the Tilt 
Screw Nut. A spring between the LED Floodlight Unit 
and the Light Head will provide the required tension.

After the adjustment secure the tilt/position of the Light 
Head by tightening the Locking Screw Nut.

If required, tighten the hex sockets at the Frangible 
Sleeve
