EMTEQ LAUNCHES 3X SERIES EMTEQ is introducing the 3X Series, a new standard for white wash lighting for corporate cabin upgrades. In addition to enhanced performance, the 3X Series represents an easier way to upgrade to LED lighting through a unique “bypass” installation option. Capitalizing on technology perfected and proven on
several current line-fi t programs, the 3X Series uses cutting edge LED and lens technology. The new-aged LED is hyper-effi cient with incredible color consistency and unmatched color blending. Furthering the color quality, EMTEQ is using a next generation lens that creates a homogeneous output while not diminishing the intensity of the light. The wider beam spread of the light gives the cabin a fuller appearance.

“Over 10 years ago, EMTEQ jumpstarted the transition to LED lighting aboard executive aircraft with the introduction of the ELW30, a product with over 2300 orders.” states Peter Tessmann, product manager for the 3X Series. “Keeping our customers who know and love the ELW30 in mind, we have done that again with the introduction of the 3X Series.” The most signifi cant advantage to the 3X Series is the installation fl exibility. The 3X Series can be installed as either a minor modifi cation or as part of a full modifi cation. “Not all LED lighting is the same – and now EMTEQ
has provided an option where you no longer have to sacrifi ce the quality of the light and color consistency to achieve low downtime and lower cost,” states Tessmann. While you can opt to remove the ballasts and power supplies, saving on weight in the aircraft, it is not necessary to install the 3X Series. The light has a regulated power supply which allows it to deliver steady light output when operating directly off of 28VDC aircraft power. The installation uses existing wiring bypassing the ballasts eliminating them as a failure point in lighting systems. “Right now there is a curiosity towards an LED light that can run off the ballast and be a “drop-in” solution. The problem with this is that over time the ballast can become damaged because of the way fl uorescent tubes interact with them,” explains Tessmann. “With a failure of these new systems, you do not know if it is the light or ballast until you dig a little deeper. And worse yet, the ballast are often remote from the light source. The 3X Series bypasses the ballast eliminating that as a failure point.” The 3X Series line includes built in step dimming
and variable dimming options. The 3X Series is also designed with compatibilities to the ELW30 for the ease of existing customers. It will utilize the same mounting clips eliminating the need to change clip inventory or learn new install methods. The 3X Series will also off er expanded length and color options.
2014 AIR CHARTER SAFETY SYMPOSIUM A SUCCESS DESPITE WEATHER The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) just completed its seventh annual Air Charter Safety Symposium at the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Training Center in Ashburn, Virginia. The symposium provided two days of presentations and discussions on topics, such as, quality performance, safety leadership, and managing cockpit automation. “We are extremely pleased with everyone’s eff orts to attend the symposium despite the late winter storm that aff ected the East Coast,” says ACSF President Bryan Burns. “The attendees were rewarded with a range of information that they could use in their daily operations. It was an extremely successful event.”
