Parker Aerospace: fuel package for A350. Parker Aerospace has been selected by Airbus to supply both the fuel and hydraulic systems for its new A350 extrawidebody (XWB) aircraft.

The company will provide the entire fuel system equipment package, including the inerting system, fuel measurement and management system, fluid mechanical equipment, and engine feed and transfer fuel pumps.

The contract will generate more than US$ 1 billion over the life of the programme.

The fuel tank inerting system uses air separation modules with patented fibres. The air separation modules generate nitrogen-enriched air by removing the oxygen molecules from its air source and distributing the nitrogen to all the aircraft’s fuel tanks, thereby reducing the flammability of fuel vapours in the fuel tank and increasing the aircraft’s safety.
