PAC Matrix

PAC Matrix

The PAC Matrix (Matrix of sensors for Photometric Airfield Calibration) is a portable photometry measurement system that can be used both in workshop and on-site.

Key Highlights

  • In workshop, the PAC Matrix provides quick photometry compliance to ICAO by collecting light samples from the fitting beam – up to 17 samples can be taken in the ICAO main beam in order to compute the average value of the fitting. Measurement is carried out in one second per fitting.
  • On site, the operator carries this light-weight device and places it in front of the light beam to be measured: either by positioning it on the ground, and sliding up to the required height or for higher fittings – such as approach lights and high wing-bar lights, by simply carrying the PAC Matrix in front of the beam.

Measurement Process

  • Position the PAC Matrix in front of the light beam.
  • Select the type of fitting to be measured on the 10.1” tablette (touchscreen).
  • Make sure it is horizontal (check bubble levels) and at the adequate distance (see tablette information).
  • When ready, press on “Start acquisition” and click on the push-button.
  • Result is provided instantly with the average value in candela and the status Pass/ Fail.
  • If required, the pdf report of the fitting measurement can be displayed immediately.
