Fire Protection System Control and Integration
Advanced software development programmes combined with our state-of-the-art system architecture, ensures that we minimise risk and support on-time deliveries for aircraft development programmes.
Advanced software development programmes combined with our state-of-the-art system architecture, ensures that we minimise risk and support on-time deliveries for aircraft development programmes.
From fire, smoke and overheat detectors and fire extinguishers located throughout the aircraft, our electronic control units seamlessly receive multiple signals.
They continuously monitor aircraft system health, rapidly alerting flight crew on detection of smoke or fire.
Our control units also log minor faults with pinpoint accuracy, enabling quick repairs by ground crews after landing.
Our electronic control units – or control system algorithms – optimise fire protection system integration.
A fully integrated and intelligent solution
Interfacing with an aircraft’s real-time computer network, our systems precisely interpret fire detection data, issuing appropriate flight crew warnings, shutting off fuel and air supply lines, and discharging fire extinguishers.
Reduced Development Risk
We use the SCADE process to design and automatically generate code for DO-178B levels A and B, reducing development risks associated with changing system requirements.
With full-automation, the design and development cycle is further reduced during test and flight certification, while ensuring high-quality software.
Our fire protection control systems are certified for a wide range of civil and military programmes, including Airbus A350, A380, A320neo, A400M, Boeing 777F, KC46 Tanker, Bombardier, Embraer and the Boeing F/A-18.
We have extensive experience in certifying fire protection systems for aircraft.
