Ultrasonic Low Airspeed & Side Slip Probe

Product Code: LASSP

The Ultrasonic Low Airspeed and Side Slip Probe provides a reliable, accurate and cost-effective low airspeed and directional measurement enhancement to the Curtiss-Wright Controls Integrated Sensing (CWCIS) Software Configurable Air Data Unit (SCADU).

It combines the latest patented advances in ultrasonic technology together with fourteen years experience of the recognised world leading supplier of ultrasonic airspeed sensors. The elimination of moving parts, together with a rugged stainless steel construction, means that the probe is virtually maintenance free and requires no calibration. The heated head keeps the unit free from ice and snow, providing continuous use even in the most extreme weather conditions. The probe is rigorously tested to internationally recognised aerospace standards.
