| ITS/ETL certified UL
SERIES UNLIGHTED SIGNS are manufactured in accordance with FAA
Advisory Circular No. 150/5345-44. Constructed in 4 foot and
6 foot lengths, single and double faced, UL Series Unlighted
Signs accommodate numerous legend requirements. Signs can be
mounted on a cement pad or with stakes. |
|
| CONSTRUCTION: Sign
panels are made of .080 inch aluminum sheeting covered by a high
intensity retroreflective material and secured to a frame made
of 1.5 inch X 1.5 inch aluminum angle (.1875 inch thickness).
Frames are mounted to support columns constructed of 2-inch schedule
40 aluminum tubing which are joined to frangible couplings with
2-inch female connectors. Couplings are then screwed into either
stake mounts or floor flanges. |

| FRANGIBLITY: Per FAA
specifications, UL signs are available in two “modes” of
frangibility. To meet the minimum strength requirements, signs
must withstand a certain wind load produced by jet blast. At
the same time, signs must break over at a given applied static
load. |

| PACKING & SHIPPING: As many as four signs are packed in a heavy weight corrugated
carton (75 inch x 50 inch x 8 inch). The signs are shipped complete
with couplings and floor flanges attached. |
|
| INSTALLATION: In accordance
with FAA AC 150/5340-18 on signs systems, signs should be mounted
at the following distances from the “defined taxiway/runway
edge”: |
- Size 1 (small)
10 – 20
feet (3 - 6 meters)
- Size 2 (medium)
20 – 35 feet (6
-10.5 meters)
- Size 3 (large)
35 – 60 feet (10.5 -
18 meters)
|
| We recommend that signs
be mounted at or beyond the maximum distances at airports where
there is jet aircraft traffic. Airports with wide-body jet operations
should use only Size 3 (large) signs mounted 60 or more feet
from the pavement edge. |
