Visit IST-Edelstahl-Anlagenbau AG at the Airport Show in Dubai, 9th - 11th May 2016 - Swiss Pavilion - 5210 & 5220

IST engineers and manufactures process plants, tanks, equipment and piping systems in stainless steel for various industries since 1975.

As a Swiss producer, the company has committed itself to the “Swiss Quality” standard of excellence. In the field of Airport Systems, IST offers the first complete system for the power (400 Hz) and pre-conditioned air (PCA) needs of aircrafts on ground: the Aircraft Ground Energy System AGES. With AGES, airports are able to reduce the fuel consumption and the emissions of CO2 and other pollutants by 90% compared to APU’s and the ramp noise level drops considerably.

Pre-conditioned Air (PCA) and 400 Hz

Stationary Aircraft require electrical power (400 Hz) during their stay on the ground. Depending on the ambient environmental conditions, they also require pre-conditioned air (PCA) for the heating and cooling of the cabin. Traditionally, these ground energy needs are provided by an Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) located at the rear of the aircraft. As a result of the poor efficiency of this unit (8-14%), the APU is a major contributor to pollutant emissions and noise at airports and their environment.

Through the use of stationary systems providing power and pre-conditioned air, typical fuel savings of up to 90% (excluding grey energy) can be achieved when compared to the fuel consuption by the APU. The emissions of CO2 and other pollutants are reduced respectively by 90% while the ramp noise level drops considerably.

Airport Show is the world’s largest annual airport event.

Airport Show provides an ideal B2B platform for companies to present airport and aviation-related products and services.  In 2015, the event gathered over 7,120 aviation professionals who networked, sourced their product requirements and created over US$20 billion worth of regional business possibilities.

The Airport Show, whose 16^th edition will be held from May 9 to 11 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (DICEC), enjoys solid support of both the government and private sectors. The world’s leading B2B event for airport procurement, supplies, solutions and technology has been in the forefront of meeting the industry’s expectations.

Over 300 leading global companies are expected to participate at the 2016 event, showcasing their latest technology, innovation and product offerings to a projected 7,500 attendees, including 150 hosted buyers and over 50+ regional aviation authorities expected to attend the event.

The Airport Show is an ideal platform for showcasing the latest technologies and learning about emerging trends and networking with key decision-makers and getting first-hand knowledge about the US$100 billion regional airport expansion and modernization programmes.
