Understanding how helicopter engines work | Turboshaft
Discover the major advantages of this new turbine engine produced by Safran Helicopters Engines, an engine that constitutes a real technological breakthrough in terms of performance. In addition to reducing fuel consumption by 10 to 15% compared to previous generations, its architecture has been designed to simplify maintenance with means of "health monitoring" and automatic fault diagnosis. Thus, it will require five times less maintenance operations than current engines.
The Arrano is the latest engine from Safran Helicopter Engines. This new generation engine in the range of 1100 to 1300 shp, is particularly suitable for modern helicopters from 4 to 6 tons. It was selected to power the future Airbus Helicopters H160 and made its first flight on January 27, 2016.
Since then, the Arrano has undergone a test campaign of 10,000 hours of operation, including 2,000 in flight on the H160. Certified in June 2019 by EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency), it has no equivalent on the market.
