A. Position Lights
The DA 40 has left and right position lights. The front part of the light unit has a red (left) lens or green (right) lens. The light can be seen from the front or the side of the airplane.
The light unit also has rear position lights. The aft part of each light unit has a clear lens. The light can be seen from the rear of the airplane only.
A switch on the left instrument panel controls the position lights and the system is protected by a circuit-breaker.
B. Strobe Light (Anti Collision Light - ACL)
The middle part of each light unit has a clear lens for a strobe light. The filament gives a high intensity flash. This is followed immediately by a less-bright flash. The double flashes occur about 50 times per minute. The strobe lights can be seen from all round the airplane.
A separate power unit for each strobe light is mounted in the wing tip. A switch on the left instrument panel controls both the strobe lights and the system is protected by a circuit-breaker.
The power unit generates an electrical impulse of about 600 volts. The pulse ionizes the gas in the strobe light filament which causes a bright flash. A second less powerful flash occurs immediately after the main pulse.
C. Landing Light
The landing light is located in a housing in the leading edge of the left wing. The landing light has a clear lens and a 35 watt filament. It is located inboard in the housing. A switch on the left instrument panel controls the light and a circuit-breaker protects the system.
D. Taxi Light
