The BRAT Option B511 is an option to the BRAT Test System utilizing Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) equipment. The system is used to augment the existing BRAT capabilities to test rate of change of altitude or pressure. Air Data Test Set System is a user-friendly, self-contained, computerized, high-accuracy pressure management system integrated into a compact, stand-alone unit or transportable unit (for flight line use) that does not require any source of shop air or vacuum pumps. BRAT Option B511 can measure an input or control an output pressure and display the results as steady state altitude or air speed, or as rate of change of altitude or air speed. Information for both pressure channels is provided on a color VGA display. There are ten different display screens that provide user information. Results can be displayed in English or Metric. BRAT Option B511 can perform internal self tests, indicating any errors to the operator. The test set can be used to conduct:
Range: | Ps: -4000 to 100,000 feet (103.5 inches HgA) Pt: 20 to 1000 knots |
Accuracy: | 0.01% FS including linearity, hysteresis, repeatability, and temperature after zeroing at operating temperature |
Resolution: | Pressure up to 1 ppm Altitude 0.1 foot |
Response Time: | Less than 0.2 seconds for FS step with no digital filtering |
Warm-Up: | Approximately 45 minutes to achieve full accuracy |
Zero Drift: | 0.01% FS max. 1 week |
Span Drift: | 0.01% FS max. 90 days |
Internal Pump: | Direct drive, low noise, permanently lubricated and sealed bearings |
