Follow on Google News | Control Products Provides Freeze Protection For Parked Aircraft In Cold ClimatesControl Products, a trusted leader in electronic control technology, was contacted by Northwest Airlines requesting assistance in providing a solution to prevent unoccupied aircraft from freezing up while parked in cold climates.
By: Mark Bjornstad Control Products, working closely with Northwest Airlines, modified its Cell Comm™ freeze protection product. Cell Comm™ uses cellular phone technology to provide temperature monitoring and alarm notification. Cell Comm™ works independent of the plane’s systems and comes in a small, discrete, weather resistant enclosure. Cell Comm™ monitors high and low temperatures and sends email text messages if the temperature falls outside the user-selected set points. As a result, aircraft maintenance personnel are notified before freeze-up conditions occur. In addition, labor is saved by eliminating the need to physically visit aircraft to monitor current conditions. Cell Comm™ benefits aircraft owners by reducing energy costs, reducing heat cart rental costs, eliminating repairs due to freeze-up and eliminating the hassles and costs that result from aircraft being out of service. According to Jim Helgerson, Director of Marketing for Control Products, “Cell Comm provides the benefits of remote monitoring and alarming in applications where technical challenges could not be easily solved and expenditures not easily justified. In the case of Northwest Airlines, Cell Comm paid for its entire program in the second day of operation, saving a commercial airliner from freeze up.” (Northwest Airline references are available upon request.)
