Flight Test Application

Delivering Reliability & Stability


Building commercial aircraft requires a multibillion-dollar investment. Before any aircraft can leave the ground, the avionics and electronic subsystems must undergo an exhaustive battery of tests to gain FAA certification. With billions of dollars invested in new aircraft development, commercial aircraft manufacturers cannot afford anything but the best Flight test engineers demand transducers that provide high accuracy, networking, efficient data acquisition and customization options.

So for the most high precision solution - a precision pressure transducer capable of delivering the accuracy and reliability required by the FAA and the company's own world class standards – these flight test engineers turned to Honeywell.

Why Honeywell's Precision Pressure Transducer?
A More Efficient, Cost Effect Testing Solution:
  • High Accuracy
  • Reliable & Stable
  • Digital Networking Capability
  • Technical Support & Expertise

From the very beginning, the Honeywell Pressure Precision Transducer’s (PPT) performance surpassed the expectations of the flight test engineers. Upon the completion of their extensive and rigorous evaluation, they concluded that the PPT's accuracy and stability not only met the demanding specifications of their current application, but it did so at a considerably lower cost. The engineers also recognized the potential of the unit's digital networking capability.

Working with Honeywell's technical experts, this capability was used to develop a more efficient testing system, which has since become a worldwide IEEE standard.
