QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
The FTC‑102 is crafted from DuPont Nomex®, a flame-resistant and UV-repellent fabric rated for temperatures up to 800°F. Manufactured under ISO 9001 and AS9100D quality standards, it ensures consistent performance and compliance with aerospace industry norms.
This cover protects TAT sensors from water, debris, wind, and foreign object damage (FOD) during ground handling and maintenance. It repels moisture, resists abrasion, and prevents contamination that could impair sensor accuracy.
Yes! The cover is metal-free and made from soft, flexible materials to avoid scratching delicate sensor surfaces or aircraft paint. This ensures a tight, secure fit without damaging components.
No. The cover is designed to protect the sensor while the aircraft is on the ground. It should always be removed before flight, ensuring that critical air data systems operate without obstruction.
The cover satisfies CFR 25.853 flammability requirements, and test data can be provided upon request. It also aligns with key aviation quality frameworks, ensuring safe deployment in FAA-regulated environments.
The thoughtful cover design allows easy attachment to Sesame’s Safety Lanyard System, ensuring it remains tethered and isn’t left behind during preflight procedures – enhancing both safety and accountability.
The Nomex® construction is water-repellent and weather-tolerant, with strong resistance against UV exposure, chemicals, and abrasion, making it ideal even in challenging outdoor environments.
Install the cover before any maintenance or ground operations to shield the TAT sensor; always remove it before flight. The warning streamer and potential lanyard attachment help ground personnel follow correct procedures, maintaining sensor performance and reducing the risk of stray paint or FOD.
