The Vacuum Panel Assembly provides a connection to a wall suction system in multiple healthcare settings, i.e. hospitals; air ambulances, etc.
The Air Gas Delivery System provides supplemental air and prescribed flow rates to patients in multiple healthcare settings, i.e. hospitals; air ambulances, etc. It is designed to be installed into a gaseous air supply system with an inlet pressure of 50 psi. The Air Gas Delivery System will provide controlled flow rates of 0.25 to 25 LPM. Multiple Outlet Fitting options are available based on operator preference and market or regional connection standards.
Right and left slew grips, mounted on the console to provide sensor control.
The LM-100J control yoke is identical to that of the C-130J. This system handles pitch and roll flight control, as well as the control of various aircraft systems such as pitch trim, communications and other on-board avionics.
The Ambidextrous Cursor Grip is designed for applications where there is not sufficient room for both right and left slew grips. This single control is suitable for use by the right or left hand and mounts on the console between the seats for use by both pilot and co-pilot.
The Ergonomic Collective Grip has a unique shape that provides the optimum hand position for long-range comfort, reducing fatigue during flight. The patent-pending design incorporates additional switches to eliminate hand repositioning or dual seat inputs.
The new Ergonomic Collective Grip enables pilots to fly the aircraft while maintaining control of all electronic switch functions.
Essex developed the Ergonomic Collective Grip for the UH-60 Black Hawk with eight different switches, including a Cursor Slew Switch and HUD Switch, which are not typically available on a collective grip.
The Ergonomic Collective Grip can be modified to fit any rotary platform and is particularly suited to those applications that require a wide range of functionality. Switches can be changed, as needed, to include uses such as weapon or sensor control.
We are proud to provide some of the most complex man-machine interface controls for the advanced military air and ground vehicles.
