AERO ENGINE & COMPONENT TEST FACILITIES Aerotest Limited Consultants Specialists m Aero Engine Test Facilities & Ground Support Equipment Aerotest Limited have designed, developed and supplied a range of Multi-Purpose Universal, Test Facilities. Each facility is pre commissioned prior to delivery on a “TURNKEY” basis, for the repair and overhaul of aerospace related accessory components. Aerotest’s main aim is to provide our customers with high quality, “state of the art” easily maintainable test solutions. The Aerotest range of universal aero engine component test facilities provides inherent flexibility as a pre-requisite during the design stage. Our multi component test facilities are designed for a wide range of flows, pressures and drive speeds. An optional high speed real time data acquisition system for production versatility and improved quality of test recording is available. A Turnkey Multi-purpose Universal, pre-commissioned fuel system accessory test facility includes the following: • A multi-adaptable component drive head, with variable speeds up to 15,000 RPM, thus providing true long term flexibility. • Low cost, life of type adaptability, via easy to adapt universal drive head. • Ergonomically designed brushed stainless steel panels for durability, eliminating FOD risks associated with painted surfaces. • Self sealing, stainless steel panel couplings for fast adaptability and cleanliness. • Digital controls for the DC Thyristor drive speed, for enhanced productivity and test quality. • The Aerotest Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system using National Instruments globally supported ‘LabView’ software to run within the well proven and reliable MS Windows-7 operating environment. • The software code at the heart of the system is designed to for any customer specified engine test procedures. • Integral mains power distribution panel, with low voltage 24 Volt D.C contactor control for personnel safety. • Cabinet lighting both front and rear for test component adjustment and plant maintenance. • Well proven, reliable equipment, providing low cost of ownership. • Slide away winch system for component, installation eliminating personnel lifting hazards. • Optional integral slave oil system for FCU spline lubrication configurations. • Optional high accuracy torquemeter power performance measurement, for HP pump component running in tests-reducing test rejects and saving valuable production time. • End to end calibrations, over twenty points prior to commissioning and cross correlation, using our NAMAS traceable instrument calibration equipment. • The pre-proven test systems are available with and without fuel burner patternization cabinets, preformed base frames and altitude temperature simulation. • Aerotest fuel control unit and burner patternization facilities are designed, pre-commissioned and cross correlated prior to delivery on a “TURNKEY” Basis.

A Turnkey Multi-purpose Universal, Pre-commissioned Fuel Burner Patternization Cabinet provides the following advantages: • A fast localised test method for burner irregularities, reducing the risks and costs of early combustion chamber overhauls. • The localised control of repair, test and support activities. • The adaptability to support other aircraft types. The ingenuity of the Nozzle Patternization Test System provides: • Unique 3D flow visualisation. • The instant recognition of nozzle streaking and pattern irregularity. • Interchangeable target plates and nozzle mounting cradles on...
