Helicopter Fire Protection System

MIL-C-22284 compliant engine fire extinguishing bottles can be discharged into either or both engines. Activation of the bottles is controlled via fire control panel located in the cockpit. APU or Cargo Bay fire extinguishing bottles can be controlled manually from the cockpit or automatically via fire control computer per configuration options. Automatic extinguishing function requires discrete crash or WOW signals to be connected to the fire control computer.

High reliable DO-254 / DO-178 DAL-B fire control computer communicates with glass cockpit avionics via ARINC-429 or MIL-STD-1553 bus. Built in test feature continuously checks the system health covering the fire detector health status, control computer health status, fire extinguishing bottle pressure status and squibs’ status. Any detected failures are provided to the cockpit via communication bus for maintenance purpose. Furthermore discrete failure signals are provided to fire control panel if pilot action is required.
