Liquid Measurement Systems, Inc. (LMS) is proud to announce a strategic long-term supplier partnership with De Havilland Aircraft of Canada Limited. This partnership marks a significant step forward for LMS as they transition from fuel quantity measurement to comprehensive fuel management solutions.
The agreement entrusts LMS with supplying advanced fuel management solutions, including next-generation fuel quantity measurement systems, for De Havilland Canada's DHC-515 Firefighter Aircraft. LMS will also continue supporting the existing CL-215 and CL-415 fleets, ensuring their continued operational excellence.
This partnership is built upon LMS's innovative fuel management solution, specifically designed to enhance the performance of De Havilland Canada's firefighting aircraft. This complex system features:
- Lightweight and durable carbon composite Fuel Probes: The industry's lightest probes, offering superior corrosion resistance and a critical safety feature:
buckling upon impact to minimize fuel compartment breaches.
- Sophisticated Signal Conditioner Units (SCUs): These units work seamlessly with the fuel probes to deliver precise fuel quantity data.
- Aircraft External Refuel Preselect Panel: This integrated panel provides a central hub for refueling operations, allowing crews to view fuel levels, calculate
totals, pre-select desired quantities, and monitor for any fault codes.
This comprehensive fuel management system streamlines refueling processes, improves operational efficiency, and empowers crews with real-time fuel data for informed decision-making.
Scott Fewell, President of LMS, expressed his enthusiasm: "This partnership signifies a major milestone for LMS. We are committed to providing De Havilland and its customers with unparalleled on-time delivery and the highest quality assurance standards."
This strategic alliance underscores both companies' dedication to innovation, safety, and quality. It paves the way for enhanced operational efficiency in aerial firefighting and reinforces their commitment to supporting global firefighting efforts with state-of-the-art technology.
