The ADTS 505 is the latest in a series of reliable, compact and high accuracy Air Data Test Sets.The flightline design has evolved as a result of GE Infrastructure Sensing continuous research and development, customer feedback and experience gained from manufacturing thousands of automatic pressure controllers. This has enabled performance, ease of maintenance and operational simplicity to be optimized.
Features
- High accuracy – RVSM compliant
- Fully automatic control
- Rugged flightline construction
- Wide ranging aircraft compatibility
- Integral pneumatic supplies
- Protection for aircraft instruments
- Standard remote hand terminal
Specifications
The ADTS 505 is housed in a rugged weatherproof case, complete with internal pneumatic pumps for pressure and vacuum generation. Automatic control is implemented by simple menu instruction and keypress at the front panel.
