Press releaseIssued by CTT Systems AB and published as received — not written by Airframer’s editors.

CTT Systems AB (“CTT”), the market leader in aircraft humidity control systems, announces a Zonal Drying order for 7 Boeing 737NG-800 to be line fitted in new aircraft, with deliveries between March 2017 and July 2017.

Peter Landquist, VP Sales & Marketing, CTT Systems AB, comments: 'We are privileged to receive another order from Transavia, a customer valuing the benefits of mastering the root-cause of fuselage condensation from the very first operation. Hereby, the new aircraft will not gain weight from accumulated water/ice accretion (which increase fuel and CO2 burn) and it will not experience moisture problems, such as electrical failures, which increase cost.'

The Zonal Drying Anti-Condensation System generates the following advantages:

• Lower fuel burn and CO2/NOX emissions from excess weight reduction of 200-300kg of accumulated water in B737/A320 aircraft.

• Higher operational reliability from significantly lower moisture related faults in electrical equipment (reduced Out-Of-Service time).

• Lower rate of insulation blanket replacement.
