Dry Air Pump Application Guide
Tempest offers a complete line of new and overhauled dry air pumps that are FAA-PMA approved and meet the demands of today’s light aircraft. All new and overhauled Tempest dry air pumps come with Tempest patented WIP™ (Wear Indicator Port) that allows for internal observation of the pump’s vanes. Rugged and lightweight, the 240 and 400 series dry air pumps are designed with your high performance aircraft in mind. These pumps use a heat-treated, stainless-steel conical pressure plate spring and torsional dampening springs to provide a harmonics-free pressure plate control and smooth temperature compensation. The larger pumps also use hardened stainless-steel pressure plates that are precision ground and lapped to reduce internal leakage and wear.
About Tempest NEW Pumps
Each pump is meticulously and professionally hand assembled to insure proper tolerances and clearances. This assures optimum performance. After assembly, each pump is functionally tested. After this initial testing, the pump is then disassembled, inspected for any unusual wear or abnormalities, and reassembled for a second test run. This extensive testing procedure creates only top-notch products.
About Tempest Overhauled Pumps
When Tempest receives a core, it is disassembled and all carbon is discarded. Tempest never re-uses carbon and uses a new stator on all 200 series pumps. The larger 400 series pumps have the hard anodize stripped from the center stator and the stator is inspected for cracks. Tempest then performs a reconditioning of the I.D. After the reconditioning process, each 400 series stator is meticulously inspected for proper dimensions. The stator then receives a new hard anodize coating. Tempest inspects 100% of the parts that are re-used in the overhaul process to make sure that each part meets the requirements for FAA-Approved process specification 203-6-1009.
TEMPEST DRY AIR PUMPS
Tempest Dry Air Pumps are just what you need for your small aircraft!
- Tempest offers a complete line of new and overhauled dry air pumps. These pumps are FAA-PMA approved and meet the demands of today’s light aircraft.
- All new and overhauled Tempest dry air pumps come with the patented WIP™ (Wear Indicator Port) that allows for internal observation of the pump’s vanes. The WIP™ helps determine if the pump should be replaced and avoid unscheduled maintenance due to a pump exceeding its life cycle.
- These pumps also include finned stators for increased cooling and an “ultra-hard” finish on the internal wear surfaces of the stator for low friction and extended life.
- Tempest new dry air pumps offer a closed coupling area and our patented “LRT” diverter. These design features will help you detect and prevent pump contamination from external sources.
- Rugged and lightweight, our 240 and 400 series dry air pumps are designed with todays high performance aircraft in mind.
- These pumps use a heat-treated, stainless-steel conical pressure plate spring and torsional dampening springs to provide a harmonics-free pressure plate control and smooth temperature compensation.
- Our larger pumps also use hardened stainless-steel pressure plates that are precision ground and lapped to reduce internal leakage and wear.
