Germanwings to conduct A319-trials of the weight-reducing Zonal DryingTM System


Nyköping 12 January, 2015, – CTT SYSTEMS (“CTT”), the market leader of anti
-condensation systems for commercial aircraft and the dominating provider of
humidification products for cockpit, crew rest and cabin areas, today announces
that Germanwings part of the Lufthansa Group, has ordered two Zonal Drying
System for a 12 months evaluation trial.
Germanwings will install the anti-condensation Zonal Drying System in two A319
aircraft. The primary objective with the trial is to quantify the weight
savings. In a typical A319 the Zonal Drying excess weight reduction will be 150
-200 kg cutting fuel burn and emissions. This lowers airline operational costs
significantly and in addition the airline benefit from other savings such as
reduced failure rate of electrical components and replacement of blankets.

“CTT is pleased to receive this trial order from Germanwings to evaluate the
Zonal Drying System performance to prevent fuselage condensation and moisture
increase in the A319 aircraft. We expect to see a weight reduction of at least
150 to 200 kg by removing moisture from the insulation blankets and we also
expect a significant failure rate reduction of electrical units and antennas,”
says Peter Landquist, Vice President Sales & Marketing of CTT Systems.

About CTT SYSTEMS

CTT’s Zonal Drying™ System is basic equipment on all Boeing 787 “Dreamliner”
aircraft and the humidifiers are standard in all crew rest compartment fitted
Dreamliner aircraft and optional for flight deck. The flight deck humidifier,
the crew rest compartments humidifiers are optional on both A380/A350XWB and the
Zonal Drying™ and Cair™ systems are optional on the A350XWB aircraft.

Cair™ is the leading cabin humidification system maintaining the relative
humidity above 20% without causing condensation. The cabin air in First Class is
normally extremely dry (3-5%). Cair increases passengers wellbeing by reducing
dry air related problems (e.g. fatigue, jet-lag, red eyes, dry skin, spread of
virus diseases). The dual-purpose system increases humidity for greater comfort
and the anti-condensation Zonal Drying™ System prevents condensation from
actively humidifying the cabin air.
