Form No.14020A (022806)
INSTALLATION: The 70239 Series must be properly mounted
to comply with FAR Part 91.205(c-2) & (c-3). The light
assembly must be mounted so that the light distribution
pattern is not obstructed by any parts of the aircraft. A
limited amount of obstruction is permitted (Ref. FAR Part
23.1401 for anti-collision lights, and PAR 23.1387 for position
lights).
The baseplate must be mounted parallel to the vertical and
horizontal centerlines of the aircraft to project the patterns
properly.
CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS: Inspect the lenses for
excessive scratches or pitting. Replace if necessary
MOUNTING...
1. If necessary, fabricate the mounting pattern using
dimensions found in fig. 1.
2. Make the necessary wiring connections using 18 gage wire
for the position lights, and Whelen 16 gage 3/c cable for the
strobe lights. All connections must use FAA approved
techniques.
3. Remove the (6-32 x .312) retainer mounting screw and
retainer.
4. Attach the base assembly to the wingtip using (3) #6-32
countersunk screws (unit may be sealed around periphery
with RTV or equivalent).
5. Re-attach lens retainer.
WIRING: The strobe connector should plug into the Whelen 16
gage interconnecting cable, or a Whelen strobe power supply.
Observe the following strobe color coding:
PIN 1 - RED (Anode)
PIN 2 - BLACK (Cathode)
PIN 3 - WHITE (Trigger)
Caution: When pins 1 & 2 or pins 2 & 3 are reversed, the
system will appear to operate normally, however this
condition will cause premature flash tube failure.
1. Connect the forward position light wires as follows, using 18 gage
approved aviation wire or cable:
RED: (+) 28 volts
BLACK: ( - ) Ground
