Pratt & Whitney AutoAir

With it's experience gained since it's founding in 1956, AutoAir is the principal provider of test nacelle equipment to the world market. AutoAir also manufactures gas turbine components and repairs engine components under license from the FAA, JAA, and CAAC. ISO 9001 and AS9000 approvals were obtained in 1998. The test nacelle equipment consists o... f bifurcated duct set and bellmouth designed to simulate installed aircraft engine performance in the customer's test cell. Construction is rugged to endure enclosed test cell environment and to resist handling and chemical change. The bifurcated duct aerodynamically simulates the flight fan reverser. Interfaces and hinge location are the same as those on the flight reverser. Bellmouths are designed to ensure a smooth flow of air into the engine. They are not direct copies of the flight inlet but are designed to meet airflow requirements of an engine running at all thrust rating while stationary. Provision for engine performance measurement is built into the equipment to enable aerodynamic data to be collected. Both development and production pass off equipment configuration can be provided. Boattail, primary exhaust nozzle , plug (tail cone) and handling dollies can also be provided as required. AutoAir will send their installation engineer and technicians to the test cell facility site to install and commission the equipment. A production schedule will be provided to you on the progress of the equipment being manufactured throughout the lead time of processing. The company will keep you adequately informed of all activities involved in this project on a regular basis. After the equipment has been installed for one year, AutoAir will visit the facility to ensure satisfaction and that the equipment continues to meet the design specifications. AutoAir, Inc. will warrant this equipment for three year following the date of installation or the first two hundred engine test runs. This warranty will be based upon whichever of the previous item(s) is the first milestone to ...Read More
