Air Data Support Equipment

Aircraft ground support equipment is used to test airspeed, altitude, angle of attack, air temperature and other critical flight systems. The highest levels of precision are necessary for maintaining an aircraft's avionic systems. Raptor Scientific is an industry leader in Air Data test equipment. We are committed to excellence, providing our customers with the tools they need — our ISO and other certifications are a testament to this commitment. Our portable, self-contained ADTS Series accurately measures and controls pressures to the highest degree of accuracy. They are trusted by commercial and military organizations worldwide to calibrate and troubleshoot an aircraft's airspeed and pitot static systems.

The Importance of Optimal Air Data Test Equipment

The margin for error is very slim when it comes to the defense, aviation and aerospace industries. Measurements that are slightly off or equipment that is not accurate can lead to serious hazards in the air. Using intuitive air data support equipment from Raptor Scientific helps technicians and maintainers spot malfunctions to enhance aircraft safety. Air data problems are identified by aircraft warning or alert software, as well as discrepancies between airspeed and altitude readings. If the pitot static system malfunctions due to a blockage or leak, the air data computer will provide inaccurate readings of the aircraft's airspeed, altitude and vertical speed. Our solutions can help you calibrate your air data equipment to identify these issues before flight. The equipment can also be used by .

Benefits of Our Air Data Support Equipment

Air data support kits contain adapters, hoses, probes and other tools for maintenance and testing. They are easy to use and transport for your convenience. The benefits of our air data support equipment include:

Accurate test results: results are tested against higher level calibration standards to ensure proven accuracy.
Accurate verification method: Our methods' results are often tested beyond the system's performance.
Primary standards results: calibration standards are traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

We also offer maintenance and repair services to extend the lifespan of your equipment.

Types of Air Data Support Equipment

Raptor Scientific has an extensive lineup of air data support equipment, including:

Air Data Calibrators: Calibrators are routinely used as secondary standards to ensure that output data is accurate and standards are met. Air data calibrators can be used to calibration flight line test equipment, including air data calibrators, air data computers, altimeters, airspeed indicators and rate-of-climb instruments.
Distribution manifolds: Distribution manifolds can be used to provide multiple outputs on the flight line. This allows for testing and troubleshooting of multiple ports on the aircraft simultaneously, reducing testing time and cost.
Pitot Static Test Sets: Troubleshoot aircraft pitot static systems to verify your instruments' calibration and detect blockages or leaks.
Output Power supplies: These rack-mounted or bench-top units simulate any worldwide power source. They deliver voltage outputs with selectable frequencies (including 400Hz) to test a variety of air data equipment on the bench
