    The Constant Current Regulator (CCR) provides precise power control for airport runway and taxiway lighting circuits, offering three or five brightness steps to adjust light intensity. Its solid-state design eliminates mechanical failures, ensuring reliable operation. The optional ACE3 touchscreen allows real-time monitoring of current, voltage, power, and fault conditions, enhancing remote control and maintenance. The CCR maintains output current within ±3% despite input voltage variations, meeting strict FAA standards for airfield lighting performance.

    This CCR operates efficiently on ferroresonant transformers with high primary power factor and supports multiple series circuit steps. It features built-in lightning protection and rapid recovery from power loss, restarting within five seconds. The modular design allows stacking to save vault space and easy field upgrades. Durable construction and comprehensive monitoring make the FAA L-828/L-829 CCR a robust, high-performance solution for consistent and safe airfield lighting control.
