Pall Aerospace has partnered with Liberty Helicopters to demonstrate the capability of the PA100 PUREair engine protection system for Airbus Helicopters’ H125/AS350, and EC130 families of helicopters. The fully certified PA100 will be on display in the Pall Aerospace booth #8536 at Heli-Expo 2016 March 1-3.  

Liberty Helicopters, the largest and most experienced helicopter sightseeing and charter service in the Northeast, is well known for their Manhattan sightseeing tours and focus on customer safety.  With the PA100 installed, Liberty flew to Louisville, KY from their base in Kearny, NJ on February 26, with the confidence of exceptional protection against, FOD, dirt and inclement weather without the worry of potential filter clogging that requires maintenance action while away from their operations and maintenance base.

“We are excited to incorporate the PA100 into our operations and improve the level of protection for our engines. Getting this improvement without having to plan for filter maintenance makes the integration simple and hassle free.” Noted Patrick Day Sr., Director of Operations for Liberty Helicopters.

The next generation PA100 PUREair System, co-developed by Pall Aerospace and DART Aerospace, is a totally redesigned, re-engineered, and retested engine air protection system that takes the capabilities of its predecessors to the next level.  Featuring Pall’s latest PUREair vortex tube technology, the new system is self-cleaning and virtually maintenance-free, unlike other filtration systems qualified for this aircraft.  

 “Pall is very appreciative that Liberty Helicopters has chosen to install the PA100 and partner with us to demonstrate the new system to the market.”  Commented James Hardy, Director of Product Marketing for Pall Aerospace.  “Their commitment and support have been tremendous and really demonstrates Liberty’s outstanding reputation in the sightseeing & charter business.”
