Pall Aerospace and Dart Aerospace announced that the PA100 Pureair, an engine inlet barrier filter for Airbus Helicopter models H125/AS350 and EC130 helicopters, has received a supplemental type certificate (STC) from EASA.

The redesigned filter uses Pureair vortex tubes for self-cleaning and is said to be virtually maintenance free. While providing a high level of filtration, Pureair also provides a 2-percent gain in engine power, according to the manufacturer.

Here at Heli-Expo 2016, Pall Aerospace (Booth 8536) is displaying the Pureair filter on a Liberty Helicopters Airbus H125/AS350 and EC130.
