CAT-I / CAT-II / CAT-III Runway & Airfield Lighting — installation by Delite Systems Engineers
Full-spectrum airfield lighting installation — CAT I through CAT III precision approach systems — delivered by a 550-strong on-site engineering force across Indian airports.
Delite Systems Engineers designs, installs, tests, and maintains the complete airfield ground lighting (AGL) infrastructure required for instrument approach operations at any category runway. This spans the full ICAO Annex 14 hierarchy: CAT I approach lighting systems (ALS) for decision heights down to 60 m with RVR minima of 550 m; CAT II high-intensity systems (HIALS) with barrette side rows extending 270 m and sequenced flashing lights for DH 30 m / RVR 300 m; and CAT III systems with runway centreline lights at 15 m spacing and additional touchdown zone lighting for near-zero visibility operations. The scope covers approach light arrays, runway edge and threshold lights, taxiway centreline and edge systems, stop bars, and power distribution including constant-current regulators and series circuits. Delite self-performs civil enabling works, cable trenching, vault installation, and PLC-based control panel commissioning. The company operates as a Government-approved licensed electrical contractor registered with the Airports Authority of India, making it a compliant delivery partner for AAI-managed and private-concession airports alike. With a permanent on-site workforce exceeding 550 personnel across Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Chennai, and other hubs, Delite provides 24/7 maintenance cover — the operations model that ILS-equipped international airports demand. For GCC operators procuring Indian EPC contractors or requiring an experienced O&M partner for existing airfield lighting estates, Delite's two-decade track record across AAI and GMR airports represents a strong reference base.
