FTS 371 Smart Vanguard
The FTS 371 Smart Vanguard is a medium-intensity red LED aviation obstruction lighting system designed for FAA type A0 and A1 structures. The system utilizes patent-pending current feedback monitoring technology to ensure consistent results regardless of fluctuations in temperature or incoming power, while reducing marker power consumption by up to 98% compared to incandescent lighting.
