Aero Systems West has launched the PARASAFE® CA12-01, a new 25kg Parachute Safety System for drones.
PARASAFE is engineered for easy, quick installation and can be mounted in various orientations. ASW recognizes the diversity in drone designs, and their experienced engineers are ready to collaborate for any special client mounting requests. A seamless integration process is ensured with the comprehensive installation manual and video, providing valuable guidance.
Aero Systems West is focused on proven system reliability, the energetic actuator, derived from their automotive safety technology, is both rigorously tested and fast deploying, making sure it delivers the durability and performance advertised.
ASW have included flexible mounting options, to allow for unique drone missions. Top-mounted configuration allows for minimizing disruption to the drone’s overall design and aerodynamics, while the side-mounted configuration allows versatility. This option is aimed towards drones with unique design configurations, allowing for easy integration on the side of the drone frame without compromising safety or functionality.
PARASAFE Canister (PS-CA12-01) Features:
- Designed for drone systems with MTOW of 25kg or 55 pounds.
- Installation made easy with adaptable mounting options.
- Industry-tested and compliant with ASTM standards.
- Fast and reliable deployment in manual or autonomous modes.
- Pyrotechnic deployment for high-speed parachute release.
ASW have introduced the MTS (Manual Triggering System) in this model, with the understanding that control is key when it comes to ensuring safety in drone operations. The MTS is an integral part of PARASAFE, crafted by their team of skilled drone engineers to provide a manual deployment option.
The MTS offers operators precise control over the safety measure of their drones, and includes key features such as simple deployment without requiring triggering tuning or intricate adjustments, a compact design measuring W 84 mm×D 60 mm×H 37 mm for seamless integration, and a lightweight construction of 120g to minimize impact on weight distribution. It operates reliably in conditions with a temperature range of 0–40℃ and an IP54 weather performance rating, while its 5V DC +/- 0.5V at 500mA max power supply ensures consistent functionality.
