Accurate, Automatic Cabin Pressurization Control
Designed to minimize installation cost, weight, and panel space, our automated cabin pressurization systems meet the needs of today’s advanced aircraft performance requirements and require no dedicated display, service air, or pilot input controls.
How it Works
The eKAPS auto-schedule controller simplifies management of the aircraft pressurization system by automatically communicating with the flight management system (FMS), eliminating pilot input.
The system incorporates maximum delta P and cabin altitude safety features as required by the applicable FARs. The controller incorporates BIT, CBIT, and auto exercise features.
On the Ground:
The controller keeps the aircraft safely depressurized.
After Takeoff:
The cabin altitude is automatically scheduled to minimize the pressure changes experienced by passengers and crew for maximum comfort.
Testing and Certification:
- Digital controller software is certified to DO-178 Level B standards.
- We have an “Iron Bird” test facility that enables the functional testing of the cabin pressure control system up to altitudes of 51,000 feet differential pressure.
