Korry 318 Series ½ x 1-inch Indicator

The Korry 318 is used on all Boeing 727 and 737 jetliners as well as other commercial and military platforms. The current LED version offers dramatic maintenance-cost savings in any application, as well as the highest possible lighting reliability for critical systems, such as enhanced ground proximity warning systems (EGPWS), predictive windshear systems, and cargo fire/smoke programs.

Operators of aircraft with legacy incandescent Korry 318 units can retrofit to LED lighting by simply exchanging caps, which contain all required power conditioning and dimming circuitry. No aircraft modifications are required. Complete legacy units are also available as an option.
