Pitot Static Adapters

Careful study of the individual aircraft mounted probes and sensor ports has led DMA to customise the probe adapters to provide tailored interfaces with the pitot-static probes and static sensing ports on a wide variety of aircraft.

The DMA adapters are so designed that the all important practical operational considerations are satisfied, such as:

1. Ease of attachment to the probe or static sensing area.
2. Datum mounting features for alignment references to ensure sensor hole positioning.
3. Seal material used being appropriate for the working environment.
4. Provision for seal replacement features should damage be sustained in service.

With the requirements for overall first class measurement accuracies for the pitot-static systems being called for, to enable RVSM (reduced vertical separation minima) requirements to be achieved, there must be minimal, or zero, leakage attributable to the adapter and aircraft mounted probes interface.
