Test Equipment for Aircraft & Helicopters
Ground Support Equipment
Our products support, test and clean the hydraulic system of almost all aircraft and helicopters.Our hydraulic testing equipment is developed in close cooperation with our customers for use under challenging environmental conditions and incorporate of a number of important and distinguishing features (extremely clean oil, increased availability, high operational reliability, high ease of use, universal application and low noise level).
Our multi functional test equipment MFAGE series combines a multitude of functions in one modular GSE cart.
Multi Functional Test Equipment
Supporting not only hydraulics, but also electrical power, pneumatics, air conditioning, nitrogen, and lighting.
Hydraulic Test Equipment
Supplying hydraulic power to aircraft and helicopters, also cleaning and regenerating hydraulic oil.
Miscellaneous Equipment
Dye mix trolleys for display teams, washing systems for fuselages and engine cores and gas in oil detection system.
Advantages
Increased flight safety due to extremely clean hydraulic oil
All ground support equipment of Sun Test Systems feature the Improved Closed Loop system. This unique system ensures that the oil in the hydraulic system of the aircraft is continuously and automatically cleaned, degassed and dehumidified when Sun Test System’s equipment is used. As a result, the handling charateristics and aerial safety will improve. Furthermore, the hydraulic system of the aircraft is protected against corrosion, wear and tear to air and moisture.
Increased availability of the aircraft
The operational use of STS test equipment by a number of prominent defence organisations has shown that the test and cleaning system of Sun Test Systems has increased the availability of the airplane or helicopter compared with using traditional GSE’s.
This can be attributed to the application of the Improved Closed Loop system. As an operator this reduces unscheduled maintenance to the aircraft and the hydraulic system is being protected against wear and corrosion.
High operational reliability under all circumstances
Sun Test Systems provides high operational reliability and low maintenance costs under all circumstances. This because STS’s the thorough and solid design of our equipment and the use of high-quality components. We use non-corrodible materials such as aluminum and stainless steel. Our test equipment is very compact and yet all components are easily accessible for maintenance.
High ease of use, multi employability and low noise level
Ease of use is the starting point for the operation and maintenance of both manually and computerized versions of our test equipment. The computerized test equipment incorporates aircraft specific, pre-programmed data and the operator is guided through the test procedure step by step.
Attention
- All Sun Test Systems equipment can easily be adjusted to various types of aircraft.
- Our products meet strict noise requirements which allows an operator not to wear hearing protection.
Your Trusted Partner
Our customers are the end-users of powered ground support equipment and aircraft component test equipment, and we like to consider them as partners. In many cases equipment is developed in close coordination with them.
