Air 2000 will perform an evaluation of the system during an eighteen (18) months period. Air 2000 also has the option to equip their entire fleet of A320 and B757 aircraft with the system. Air 2000 operates a fleet including 10 Airbus A320/321 aircraft and 13 Boeing 757 aircraft.
Installation of the B757 system is planned for September 2002 and the A320 systems for the spring 2003.
"We are pleased to announce Air 2000 as launch customer for the A320 Zonal Drying(TM) System and we welcome our first U.K.-based airline as customer," commented CTT Systems AB President Mr. Torbjorn Johansson.
The Zonal Drying(TM) System combats condensation in the thermal and acoustic insulation of modern passenger aircraft. It reduces maintenance costs by extending the service life of the airplane insulation. By eliminating accumulated condensation, the system also cuts non-revenue weight, which in turn, leads to significant fuel savings. The Zonal Drying(TM) System helps reduce corrosion and the risk of electrical faults by maintaining a dry environment between the interior trim panels and the aircraft skin.
