Fit and Forget Engine Protection

A favorite of corporations, law enforcement, and other public service agencies, the Bell 206 is one of the most popular turbine helicopters ever built.  For this type of single-engine helicopter, safety and reliability are essential.

Helicopter operators can’t afford to be delayed by blocked filters; they demand a maintenance-free engine protection system.

Pall’s “fit and forget” PUREair system is an ideal solution to help
meet challenging environmental conditions.  The system shields
the engine inlet from airborne contamination, resulting in:

Safer operation by protecting against sand and dust, FOD, ice, and snow Increased operational availability Protection against engine erosion The Bell 206 consists of a flat panel fitted to the engine cowl which rests on the engine inlet duct when the cowl is shut.
