AIR-BERLIN orders Zonal Drying TM System to entire B737-800 fleet after successful evaluation. Air-Berlin, the German based holiday airline, has after successful evaluation ordered CTT´s Zonal Drying (TM) System to their remaining twenty-six (26) B737-800 aircraft. The evaluation was performed, during the spring of 2002, in one (1) of Air-Berlin´s B737-800 aircraft. First installation is due to start during the autumn of 2002. "It is with great pleasure that we today announce the order from Air- Berlin," comments CTT Systems AB President Mr. Torbjörn Johansson. "We have enjoyed working closely with Air-Berlin´s engineering department during the evaluation and to prove the effectiveness of our Zonal Drying (TM) System.", ends Mr. Johansson. "CTT has proved that with the Zonal Drying (TM) System it is possible to cure condensation problems," comments Air- Berlin´s Technical Director Mr. Siegfried Olivo. "We have experienced everything from wet blankets, corrosion to electrical malfunctions which does not fit in Air-Berlin´s long term objective in offering cost effective and safe operations", ends Mr. Olivo. The Zonal Drying TM System combats condensation in the thermal and acoustic insulation of modern passenger aircraft. It reduces maintenance costs by extending the service life of the airplane insulation. By eliminating accumulated condensation, the system also cuts non-revenue weight which, in turn, leads to significant fuel savings. The Zonal Drying TM System helps reduce corrosion and the risk of electrical faults by maintaining a dry environment between the interior trim panels and the aircraft skin.
