The Inlet Barrier Filter (IBF) for rotorcraft is the most efficient approach to safeguard engines from harm ranging from efficiency loss to catastrophic failure while bringing about important benefits. An IBF is used to reduce the possibility of the engine ingesting particles, which can lead to irreparable damage to important parts.
When a helicopter makes a brownout landing and its rotor wake combines with loose ground debris to create a dust cloud, the risk is considerably increased.In such a situation, an IBF successfully filters the engine-bound air of particles at the expense of a pressure drop that increases with time.
The Global rotorcraft barrier filters market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
Aerometals launches a new single- and dual-hydraulic flat barrier filter design for the Airbus 350/130B4/H130 series. New filter assemblies and upgrades to current filter assemblies will both be available with the new design.
The new flat design has advantages such as an extended service interval of between 100 and 150 hours, better cleaning and lubrication, a two-pound weight reduction, and streamlined pre-flight and bad weather inspection.
The cutting-edge filtering system that guards crucial engine components against corrosion, fouling, erosion, and foreign object damage is designed, produced, and distributed by Aerometals (FOD). Additionally, for salt-laden or offshore situations, the IBF can offer up to 96.8% separation efficiency of airborne salt nuclei.
Older IBF systems can be modified without the need for composite repair by simply removing and replacing the hardware. Aerometals is a manufacturer of PMA parts and components, engineering, testing, precision assembly, obsolescence recovery, and support for the civil, commercial, and military aircraft industries.
