STERLING ORDER IMPLEMENTATION OF ZONAL DRYING SYSTEM IN ENTIRE B737-800
FLEET.
Danish Based Sterling European Airlines have executed an option to
install CTT Systems Zonal Drying TM System in their complete fleet of
B737-800 aircraft. The decision is based upon a successfully completed
in-service evaluation whereby the condensation has been effectively
eliminated.
Installation of the first system is planned for October 2001 with the
remaining aircraft equipped with the Zonal Drying TM System during the
first quarter of 2002.
CTT Zonal Dryingtm System has been in commercial operation since 1994 at
a number of airlines, see below
- "We have enjoyed working closely with Sterlings team during the
evaluation , comments CTT Systems Marketing and Sales Director, Mr
Gunnar Nilsson. I am confident this will generate further interest among
other B737-NG operators. ", ends Mr. Nilsson
The CTT Zonal Drying TM System is designed to combat water condensation
in the thermal and acoustic insulation of modern passenger aircraft.
Airlines can use the Zonal Drying TM System to reduce maintenance costs
by increasing the service life of the insulation and realize significant
fuel savings by eliminating the non-revenue weight of the accumulated
water condensate. By keeping dry the area between the interior trim
panels and the aircraft skin, the Zonal Drying TM System also reduces
corrosion and the risk of failure of electronic systems and wiring.
With the Zonal Comfort TM System, which is based upon the evaporative
cooling technique, CTT System is now able to provide the industry with a
complete moisture management system. The system provides increased
humidity for passengers and crew, in particular on long-haul flights,
while at the same time condensation is prevented with the Zonal Drying
TM System.
To date, CTT has the following additional customers for the Zonal Drying
TM system:
- Martinair for B767-300 and MD11
