WSDA devices feature an open architecture interface for integration with existing health and usage monitoring systems (HUMS), and stand-alone operation modes for data collection on aircraft without HUMS.
The AAIB investigation will now focus on why a computerised inspection system, the health and usage monitoring system, known as HUMS, did not pick up any further problems after the initial particle was found on March 25, even though the gearing was on the point of failing.
The S-76C++ delivers a comprehensive package of improvements, including more powerful engines, important safety features, a more comfortable cabin environment and a health and usage monitoring system that records operational data for maintenance analysis.
Sikorsky selected SPSS Predictive Analytics text mining and data mining software and its Predictive Analytics enterprise-wide enabling platform to analyze helicopter and pilot data collected by the aircraft health and usage monitoring system and flight maintenance log records.
The S-76C++ helicopter, which first entered service in 2005, includes a powerful Turbomeca Arriel 2S2 Engine, an inlet barrier filter to protect the engine against erosion and environmental contaminants, a new Health and Usage Monitoring System, and a quiet main gearbox utilizing Quiet Zone(TM) technology that will significantly reduce interior noise levels without any weight, maintenance or Time Between Overhaul penalties.
The Rosinskis' Health and Usage Monitoring System (HUMS) will be installed behind the blades on the huge turbines and in front of the gearbox to gather valuable data, feeding it back through a GPRS system to their premises in Nelson Industrial Estate, Cramlington.
Intelligent Automation Corporation (IAC), proven leaders in aircraft Health and Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS), today introduced an industry leading advancement in aircraft diagnostic technology with the SuperHUMS[TM] family of products.
