Bird control with the Purivox CA-RC System and TA-RC System at Liege Airport / Belgium

At Liege Airport in Belgium, effective bird control is essential to ensure safe and uninterrupted flight operations. A wide variety of bird species can pose a serious threat, especially during takeoff and landing phases. To address this risk, the airport has implemented a robust bird control strategy across the entire airfield.

Key to this strategy is the use of Purivox CA-RC and TA-RC Systems. These remote-controlled gas cannon systems are designed to deter birds using acoustic pressure and randomized patterns, preventing habituation and maximizing effectiveness.

The CA-RC System is typically used for areas requiring more compact or mobile coverage, while the TA-RC System is ideal for long-range deterrence, with a reach of up to 5 kilometers. Both systems are solar and battery powered, remotely operated, and offer high reliability with low operational cost.

By deploying these advanced systems, Liege Airport has significantly improved its ability to prevent bird strikes, reduce bird presence on the runway and taxiways, and maintain high safety standards for air traffic.
