TYPE AC32 WITH SUPERSONIC CAPABILITY (OPTIONAL RVSM AND/OR AOA)-1

DIGITAL AIR DATA COMPUTER TYPE AC32 WITH SUPERSONIC CAPABILITY (OPTIONAL RVSM AND/OR AOA) THOMMEN is a leading manufacturer of Air Data Systems and aircraft instruments that are used worldwide on many aircraft types. These include helicopters, corporate turbine aircraft and commercial airliners. A recent innovation introduced the AC32 Digital Air Data Computer to the Aviation market. The AC32 has integrated vibrating cylinder pressure sensors that give very high degree of accuracy and stability for pitot and static ports. The AC32 easily complies with the 1000 ft. vertical separation-minimums required for aircraft to operate in RVSM airspace. In fact, it providing up to 2x16 SSEC curves which makes it quite unique among all Air Data Computers in the market today. The highly commended THOMMEN AC32 Digital Air Data Computer exceeds the FAA Technical Standard Order (TSO) requirements for accuracy. The computed air-data parameters are transmitted via the configurable ARINC 429 interface data bus. This has two ARINC 429 transmit and receive-channels where you can adjust the baro-setting. The AC32 meets the requirements for multiple platforms. This includes TAWS, ACAS/TCAS, EGPWS or FMS systems. It also supports the Air Data for enhanced safety infrastructure capabilities of Transponders. Additionally, an ICAO encoded altitude-output is also available as an option. The AC32 uses the aircraft standard 28 VDC to guarantee a low consumption of less than 7 watts. The Thommen AC32 also has an extensive Built-In-Test (BIT) that guarantees safe operation. The low weight of only 2.2 lb (1000 grams) is another plus point that optimizes it for use in different state-of-the-art avionic systems. You can easily configure the AC32 for different applications. restricted by ARINC 429-1F * □/O □ Output Label 203 - Pressure Altitude (1013,25 mb) Label 204/220 Baro Corrected Altitude #1/#2 Label 205 - MACH Number Label 206 - Computed Airspeed (CAS) Label 207 - Max.
