Aircraft Lifting Bags 1.0 bar/14.5 psi

Supplied by Vetter.

Aircraft lifting bags are characterized by their sturdiness, strength, exceptional side stability and stability under load. In parallel to the existing series with an operating pressure of 0.5 bar/7.25 psi, the product program was extended to a second construction series (having an operating pressure of 1.0 bar/14.5 psi).

As opposed to the 0.5 bar/7.25 psi series, the side stability of the 1.0 bar/14.5 psi series is increased by approx. 40%. In addition to the operating pressure and the increased side stability, another assential distinctive feature is the coupling system.
With the 1.0 bar/14.5 psi series, the ALB, hoses and controllers are fitted with rapid snap-in couplings, resp. nipples. This enables time-saving and easy inter-coupling of the individual elements.

Sizes and lifting heights are identical for both series, however the nominal lifting power for the 1.0 bar/14.5 psi series is double that of the other series.

This series also enables the divided top chambers to match to the aircraft contours.

Advantages 

- approx. 40% higher stability against transverse forces
- easy and quickly useable coupling system
- optimum matching to the aircraft contours using divided contact chambers
- supplied as a fixed complete bag or as individual chamber
- space weave fabric avoids bulging of the top and bottom plates can be repaired
- long life duration of approximately 15 - 20 years

Safety

- each ALB chamber has an integrated safety valve
- 2.5 times the bursting pressure to the operating pressure
- protection bushes on all connection nipples
- test pressure of 1.5 bar (21.75 psi)
- highly tear-proof polyamide fabric
- resistive against oil and ozone
