The importance of using the proper fixture clamping components and bolt torque to minimize the risk for fixture failure or loosening of clamping components cannot be overemphasized. WARNING Read installation instructions in their entirety before starting installation. Failure to follow the guidance below could result in bolt loosening or bolts breaking off, resulting in catastrophic failure of the fixture and/or the mounting system components. Failure to follow these warnings may result in serious injury or equipment damage. 4.1.1 Reference Documents 4.1.2 Mounting Systems • FAA Cert Alert No. 14-03 (Preventive Maintenance of In-pavement Lighting Systems), is available at: http://www.faa.gov/airports/airport_safety/certalerts/ • Transport Canada Civil Aviation Safety Alert Document CASA 2014-05 (Preventive Maintenance Of Inpavement Lights) is available at: https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/opssvs/managementservices-referencecentrecasa-2014-05-2124.html • FAA AC 150/5340-30, Design and Installation Details for Airport Visual Aids, is available at: http://www.faa.gov/airports/resources/advisory_circulars/ • FAA AC 150/5340-26, Maintenance of Airport Visual Aid Facilities, is available at: http://www.faa.gov/airports/resources/advisory_circulars/ • FAA Engineering Brief 83, In-Pavement Light Fixture Bolts, is available at: http://www.faa.gov/airports/engineering/engineering_briefs/ In-pavement fixtures may be installed on one of several types of mounting systems: • • • Deep base FAA L-868 base cans (Load bearing) Deep base FAA L-867 base cans (Non-Load bearing) Shallow base cans © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved 27 THL - RIL, LED RWSL Take-Off Hold Light and Runway Intersection Light 96A0419 Rev. G L-868 base can installation (load bearing) 4.2 L-868 base can installation (load bearing) Following are specific requirements to insure that an in-pavement fixture is properly installed. WARNING Read installation instructions in their entirety before starting installation. Make sure power is off before you install or remove any fixture. Failure to follow these warnings may result in serious injury or equipment damage. CAUTION Make sure that: — The fixture is supplied with 6.6A maximum from the isolation transformer secondary via a series circuit. — The series circuit is powered by a Constant Current Regulator that complies with FAA AC 150/5345-10 or IEC 61822. — Depending on installation location, the isolation transformer is a series transformer that complies with FAA AC 150/5345-47, IEC 61823, or CSA C22.2 No. 180. — The base can is correctly earth grounded. Failure to do so will void the warranty for any damage that occurs as a result of voltage surges. — Never hold the fixture by the cable leads. This can damage the insulation, break the waterproof seal and cause insulation faults and water leakage. Make sure that the fixture is completely assembled. Make sure that the fixture has been operationally tested. Verify that a certified L-868 base can that has been listed in FAA AC 150/5345-53D, Appendix 1 Addendum is being used. Verify that the number of spacer rings is not in excess of the requirements defined in FAA AC 150/5340-30, Design and Installation Details for Airport Visual Aids. Insure that all base can mounting surfaces are flat and free of dust, dirt or debris. Use compressed air or a solvent spray to remove debris prior to installation. Use safety glasses to prevent injury from any flying debris or solvent. Inspect the threads in the light base upper flange to insure that the threads are clean and corrosion free. If necessary, use a wire brush to clean the holes or use compressed air or a solvent spray to remove debris prior to the insertion of any mounting bolts. Use safety glasses to prevent injury from any flying debris or solvent. If the base can threads are damaged, use a tap to attempt to restore them. If the threads are severely damaged and will not allow the proper torque, use an appropriate insert to repair the threaded hole. Inspect the condition of the flange ring O-ring and replace the O-ring if necessary. Mount the fixture using 3/8” x 16 Type 304 (18-8) Stainless Steel Hex Cap Screws. The bolt must be fully threaded. Insure that the bolt’s specific chemistry and physical characteristics and source of supply are known. Use a bolt that is marked “F593C” or a verified equivalent. At a minimum, choose a bolt length that insures a ½” (13 mm) thread engagement in the base can top flange. Further, the bolt length should be chosen to insure at least 1/8” (3.2 mm) to ½” (13 mm) extends below the base can top flange. However, note that installing bolts that are excessively long can increase the risk that the bolt will break off in the flange during removal, after the bolt has been installed a long period of time. Always use a new bolt. Never reuse existing bolts. 28 © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved Insure that a new anti-vibration washer is used with each new bolt. Anti-vibration washers are effective in preventing bolt loosening caused by high dynamic loads. See Figure 15. Anti-vibration washers consist of a pair of unique washers. There are stepped cams between the face of washers that is greater than the pitch of the bolt. The rise of the cams creates tension that positively locks the bolt. Figure 15: Anti-vibration washer Always use a new anti-vibration washer. Never reuse an existing anti-vibration washer. Recommended stainless steel anti-vibration washers are: • • Heico Part Number HLS-3/8” SS [ADB part number ACC0375] Nordlock Part Number NL 3/8 SS Insure that the anti-vibration washer is installed properly. An anti-vibration washer consists of two halves. Insure that the stepped cams between the face of washer halves face each other (see Figure 15). The pair of washers are typically glued together for easy assembly to the bolt. Never use only one part of a 2-part anti-vibration washer. The outside of the each washer half has serrations that grip and seat the mating surfaces. Never reverse the halves such that the serrations face each other. If anti-seize (lubricant) is used on the bolt, the following products are recommended: • Loctite LB 8009™ Heavy Duty Anti-Seize. This is also available in stick form as Loctite LB 8070™ Heavy Duty Anti-Seize Stick. • If the airport is located in a more corrosive environment, such as an airport located by the ocean, use Loctite LB 8023™ Marine Grade Anti-Seize. If a threadlocker is used on the bolt, the following is recommended: • Loctite 243 Removable Strength Threadlocker. Consistency of use of anti-seize or threadlocker is important. If anti-seize was previously used on a base can, completely clean out the base can threads before applying threadlocker. Also, it is good practice to blow out or remove any loose threadlocker residue before applying new threadlocker. See Figure 16. It is recommended that the bolt coating be applied in three locations: • • • Under the top of the bolt head. In the area underneath the bottom of the anti-vibration washers that contacts the inpavement fixture. The entire area of the bolt thread that attaches to the base can. Applying a coating in these areas reduces the friction that occurs that resists the bolt from achieving sufficient clamping force. It is not recommended to install the bolt dry (i.e., with no coating). © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved 29 THL - RIL, LED RWSL Take-Off Hold Light and Runway Intersection Light 96A0419 Rev. G L-868 base can installation (load bearing) Figure 16: Applying a coating to reduce friction during torquing Connect the fixture plug into the isolation transformer receptacle. Wrap 3 overlapping layers of electrical tape around the connection joint. Install the fixture on the base can, while insuring that the cordset does not become pinched between the fixture and the top of the base can. Insure that the fixture is aimed in the proper direction. Check if the fixture fits correctly on top of the base can. CAUTION Do not use the bolts to force the fixture onto the base can. If this happens the threaded hole in the base can be damaged. Torque each bolt to 500 ±10 in-lbs. (56.5 ± 1.1 N·m). Use a manual calibrated torque wrench to tighten the bolt. 30 © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved Alternately, use an automatic wrench set at a low torque value (for example: 25 in-lbs. [2.8 N·m]). Then use a manual calibrated torque wrench to finalize the torque. WARNING When a stainless steel base can is used, take steps to insure that galling does not occur. Galling is often referred to as a cold-welding process, which can occur when the surfaces of male and female threads come in contact under heavy pressure. The risk of galling can be minimized with the following measures: — Thread lubrication is one of the most effective measures to lessen the potential for galling. The lubricant reduces friction, which is a key element in thread galling. Avoid installing a stainless steel bolt dry with no lubricant. — Heat contributes significantly to thread galling. Installing a bolt generates heat and high-speed installation generates significantly more heat. Torque the bolt slowly into the base can. — Do not use an impact wrench to torque the bolt quickly, resulting in a torque beyond 500 ±10 in-lbs. (56.5 ± 1.1 N·m). If the fastener is over tightened, the threads can begin to yield which will induce friction between the mating surfaces. Always torque the bolts in opposing pairs. 12 inch, 6-bolt fixture (See Figure 17): — Tighten bolt #1, then tighten bolt #4. Next tighten bolts #2 and #5. Finally, tighten bolts #3 and #6. (Not shown) 8 inch, 4-bolt fixture: — Tighten any bolt designated as #1, then tighten bolt #3. Next tighten bolts #2 and #4. (Not shown) 8 inch, 2-bolt/2-pin fixture: — Simply tighten bolt #1, then tighten bolt #2. Figure 17: 6-Bolt Torque Sequence Use the above guidance for any bolted connection on a load bearing base can. This includes: • • • • • 6 bolts used on a 12-inch in-pavement fixture. 6 bolts used with an 8-to-12 inch in-pavement fixture adapter ring. 4 bolts used on an 8-inch in-pavement fixture. 2 bolts/2-pins 4 bolts used on an 8-inch fixture.

G L-868 base can installation (load bearing) 4.2.1 Use of Ceramic Bolts Refer to FAA Engineering Brief 83 (In-pavement Light Fixture Bolts) for guidance on use of fluoropolymer metallic-ceramic coated SAE J429 Grade 2 carbon steel bolts. WARNING Read installation instructions in their entirety before starting installation. — Do not use an impact type of torque wrench to tighten ceramic bolts. — Do not torque ceramic bolts to 500 in-lbs. (56.5 N·m). Do not use antiseize or threadlocking compounds with ceramic bolts. Tighten to the bolt manufacturer’s recommendation. Failure to follow these warnings may result in serious injury or equipment damage. 32 © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved 4.3 L-867 base can installation (non-load bearing) Non-load bearing base cans are not normally subject to high shear levels. Following are specific requirements to insure that either an elevated or an in-pavement fixture is properly installed. WARNING Read installation instructions in their entirety before starting installation. Make sure power is off before you install or remove any fixture. Failure to follow these warnings may result in serious injury or equipment damage. CAUTION Make sure that: — The fixture is supplied with 6.6A maximum from the isolation transformer secondary via a series circuit. — The series circuit is powered by a Constant Current Regulator that complies with FAA AC 150/5345-10 or IEC 61822. — Depending on installation location, the isolation transformer is a series transformer that complies with FAA AC 150/5345-47, IEC 61823, or CSA C22.2 No. 180. — The base can is correctly earth grounded. Failure to do so will void the warranty for any damage that occurs as a result of voltage surges. — Never hold the fixture by the cable leads. This can damage the insulation, break the waterproof seal and cause insulation faults and water leakage. Make sure that the fixture is completely assembled. Make sure that the fixture has been operationally tested. Verify that a certified L-867 base can that has been listed in FAA AC 150/5345-53D, Appendix 1 Addendum is being used. Insure that all base can mounting surfaces are flat and free of dust, dirt or debris. Use compressed air or a solvent spray to remove debris prior to installation. Use safety glasses to prevent injury from any flying debris or solvent. Inspect the threads in the light base upper flange to insure that the threads are clean and corrosion free. If necessary, use a wire brush to clean the holes or use compressed air or a solvent spray to remove debris prior to the insertion of any mounting bolts. Use safety glasses to prevent injury from any flying debris or solvent. If the base can threads are damaged, use a tap to attempt to restore them. If the threads are severely damaged and will not allow the proper torque, use an appropriate insert to repair the threaded hole. For elevated fixtures mounted on a baseplate, inspect the condition of the gasket and replace it if necessary. Mount the in-pavement fixture or baseplate using a one inch (25.4 mm), 3/8” x 16 Type 304 (18-8) Stainless Steel bolt. The bolt must be fully threaded. To insure that the bolt’s material characteristics are known, verify that the bolt comes from a known source of supply. Always use a new bolt. Never reuse existing bolts. If the base can is an area that may be subject to vibration, consider using an appropriate vibration resistant washer. If anti-seize (lubricant) is used on the bolt, the following products are recommended: • Loctite LB 8009™ Heavy Duty Anti-Seize. This is also available in stick form as Loctite LB 8070™ Heavy Duty Anti-Seize Stick © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved 33 THL - RIL, LED RWSL Take-Off Hold Light and Runway Intersection Light 96A0419 Rev. G L-867 base can installation (non-load bearing) • If the airport is located in a more corrosive environment, such as an airport located by the ocean, use Loctite LB 8023™ Marine Grade Anti-Seize. If a threadlocker is used on the bolt, the following is recommended: • Loctite 243 Removable Strength Threadlocker Duty Anti-Seize. Consistency of use of anti-seize or threadlocker is important. If anti-seize was previously used on a base can, completely clean out the base can threads before applying threadlocker. Also, it is good practice to blow out or remove any loose threadlocker residue before applying new threadlocker. See Figure 18. It is recommended that the bolt coating be applied in three locations: • • Under the top of the bolt head. • The entire area of the bolt thread that attaches to the base can. In the area underneath the bottom of the washers (if used) that contacts the in-pavement fixture or baseplate. Applying a coating in these areas reduces the friction that occurs that resists the bolt being fully torqued. Figure 18: Applying a coating to reduce friction during torquing Connect the fixture plug into the isolation transformer receptacle. Wrap 3 overlapping layers of electrical tape around the connection joint. If an in-pavement fixture is being installed on the base can, insure that the cordset does not become pinched between the fixture and the top of the base can. Insure that the fixture is aimed in the proper direction. Check if the baseplate or fixture fits correctly on top of the base can. CAUTION Do not use the bolts to force the baseplate or fixture onto the base can. If this happens the threaded hole in the base can be damaged. Torque each in-pavement fixture bolt to 500 ±10 in-lbs. (56.5 ± 1.1 N·m). 34 © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved Torque each elevated baseplate fixture bolt to 120 ±30 in-lbs. (13.6 ± 3.4 N·m). Do not over-torque elevated baseplate bolts as this may damage the baseplate gasket. Use a manual calibrated torque wrench to tighten the bolt. Alternately, use an automatic wrench set at a low torque value (for example: 25 in-lbs. [2.8 N·m]). Then use a manual calibrated torque wrench to finalize the torque. WARNING When a stainless steel base can is used, take steps to insure that galling does not occur. Galling is often referred to as a cold-welding process, which can occur when the surfaces of male and female threads come in contact under heavy pressure. The risk of galling can be minimized with the following measures: — Thread lubrication is one of the most effective measures to lessen the potential for galling. The lubricant reduces friction, which is a key element in thread galling. Avoid installing a stainless steel bolt dry with no lubricant. — Heat contributes significantly to thread galling. Installing a bolt generates heat and high-speed installation generates significantly more heat. Torque the bolt slowly into the base can. — Do not use an impact wrench to torque the bolt quickly, resulting in an overtorqued bolt. If the bolt is over tightened, the threads can begin to yield which will induce friction between the mating surfaces. Always torque the bolts in opposing pairs. 12 inch, 6-bolt fixture (See Figure 19, which shows an in-pavement fixture. Use the same procedure for a baseplate.): — Tighten bolt #1, then tighten bolt #4. Next tighten bolts #2 and #5. Finally, tighten bolts #3 and #6. Figure 19: 6-Bolt Torque Sequence Use the above guidance for any bolted connection on a non-load bearing base can. This includes: • • • 6 bolts used on a 12-inch in-pavement fixture. 6 bolts used on either an 8-to-12 inch in-pavement fixture adapter ring.

G Checking Bolt Torque 4.5 Checking Bolt Torque An established schedule for checking light fixture bolt torque and bolt condition is mandatory. This is particularly true for areas that are subject to high impact loads from aircraft such as runway status lights, runway touchdown zone lights, runway centerline lights, and taxiway lead-off lights. Although AC 150/5340-26 offers a recommended schedule for periodic checks, these checks should be tailored to the facility based on local conditions such as environmental issues and runway traffic load. FAA Cert Alert No. 14-03 refers to AC 150/5340-26C for the frequency of checking bolt torque. AC 150/5340-26C paragraph 5.3.4.1.4, Bi-Monthly Checks states: “The torque of the bolts attaching the light fixture to its base should be checked with a calibrated torque wrench – never use an impact wrench.” Regular inspection as outlined in FAA Cert Alert No. 14-03, Canada Civil Aviation Safety Alert Document CASA 2014-05, and any other applicable regulatory guidelines is critical in insuring torque on all bolts is restored to optimum values. Bolts that loosen more often should be inspected and re-torqued on a more frequent basis. It is especially important to maintain a regular inspection schedule for LED fixtures. Since LED fixtures operate more reliably and are not subject to removal/replacement/retorquing as frequently as would be seen with incandescent fixtures, it is even more important to implement regular torque inspections. It is critical that remedial action be taken if bolts are found to be loose or missing during inspection. If this occurs, it is important to carefully inspect all structural elements of the mounting system as defined in paragraph 1.2. Also inspect the base can for general structural conditions such as: • Is the base can solidly mounted in the pavement, and not moving or rocking during rollovers? • If a base can extension is present, are all extension attachment bolts tight? If poor base can structure or mounting system components are not in accordance with regulatory requirements or are in poor condition, it is the airport’s responsibility to: • Increase the frequency of bolt torque inspection to insure that no bolts become loose or missing. • Quickly replace/repair the mounting system components, which may include replacing the entire base can. Airport operators must also ensure these maintenance activities are properly documented. 40 © ADB Airfield Solutions All Rights Reserved p y Company Offices ADB BVBA Leuvensesteenweg 585 B-1930 Zaventem Belgium Tel: 32/2/722.17.11 Fax: 32/2/722.17.64 Email: info@adb-air.com ADB Airfield Technologies Ltd.
