The PW210 fleet has more than 360,000 flying hours, and is the benchmark for a new generation of twin-engine helicopters for medium-class helicopters. One of many advanced technologies, the engine doubles as an auxiliary power unit, powering electrical, cooling and heating systems while the aircraft is on the ground with a locked or disengaged main rotor.
The PW210 raises the bar on performance and operating economics by introducing an impressive menu of advanced technologies and leveraging technologies from Pratt & Whitney's latest engine families. The 1,000 shaft horsepower class PW210 is simple in concept, with only five major rotating components and a modular design enabling easy maintenance.
Maintenance is carried out via the Pratt & Whitney Canada Customer Service Centre - a joint venture between MTU Maintenance Berlin-Brandenburg and Pratt & Whitney Canada.
Yes, we retrofit legacy systems (e.g., GE Frame 5, Siemens V94.2) with modern digital controllers, typically completing hardware integration within 4-8 weeks. Software migration requires additional validation time.
We recommend annual performance testing under ISO 3977-2 standards. Critical applications (e.g., offshore platforms) may require semi-annual tests with emissions compliance checks.
All rad-hard devices (e.g., FPGA, ADC) are QML Class V certified under MIL-PRF-38535 and tested to MIL-STD-883 Method 1019 for SEU tolerance. Full qualification reports are available upon request.
Our ASICs and power management ICs operate across -55°C to +175°C ambient temperatures, with derating curves provided in military temperature range (MTR) datasheets.
Our PMA parts (e.g., actuators, sensors) hold FAA/EASA Form 1 certification and match OEM form/fit/function. Installation requires SB/MB documentation per FAA AC 23.1529.
All NAS/MS fasteners include full DNA traceability: melt source (AMS 2301), heat/lot numbers, and AS9100-compliant MTRs with ultrasonic test reports.
AOG orders ship within 4 hours for stocked items (FAA-PMA, EASA Part 21G). Non-stock critical parts trigger priority manufacturing with 72-hour max turnaround.
