Flightline Pitot Static Test Sets

Space Electronics' ADTS Series includes ruggedized, portable, self-contained Pitot Static and Air Data Test Sets that can control and measure altitude and airspeed pressures. These testers are used for calibrating, testing and troubleshooting aircraft pitot and static systems and instrumentation in a flight line environment.

Pitot Static Blockages

It is crucial that the pitot static system functions properly to ensure the safety of those in the aircraft. Blockages are commonly caused by ice, moisture, debris or insects that enter through the tube. The pitot and static system can become blocked before or during a flight. If the blockage goes undetected, the pilot risks losing control of the aircraft. Explore two types of blockages:

Blocked pitot system: Pressure is trapped, which causes the ASI to get stuck in place, providing inaccurate readings.
Blocked static system: The ASI reading will be incorrect, the altimeter will freeze and the VSI will read zero.

The Importance of Pitot Static System Testing

Space Electronics' pitot static test sets were designed and developed by experts. Pitot and static systems should be tested every 24 calendar months. By using our test sets, you can detect and prevent blockages, verify your instruments' calibration and improve flight safety. The measurement ranges, control ranges and accuracy of these test sets comply with the stringent requirements of nearly all military and commercial aircraft test applications. They can withstand the flight line's demanding environment.

Key Features

Space Electronics has been trusted for over 50 years to provide innovative and reliable instruments for measuring mass properties. Our portable, self-contained pitot static test sets are designed for optimal viewing and use. Key features of our pitot static test sets include:

A User-Friendly Interface

The interfaces are intuitive, reducing the learning curve. The software features are uncluttered, and the user can seamlessly cycle through and select modes of operation. The LED display is in full color and functions as a touchscreen, and the keypad is brightly back-lit for enhanced visibility.

Safety Features

Test sets are equipped with micro-porous filters, pressure valves and manual vent switches. After a user sets the built-in Aircraft Select software, it automatically limits the rates and ranges for the aircraft being tested.

Automated Calibration

The software allows the pitot static system tests to be calibrated without the need for mechanical adjustments, and the transducers can hold their accuracy for a year.

Remote Operation

A 25- or 50-foot remote cable is supplied so all functions of the test set can be performed at a distance. Like the main interface, the remote also features a full-color LED touchscreen and a back-lit keypad for your convenience.
