Will Be Installed In Company's Bell 429
San Juan Regional AirCare will integrate Becker Avionics’
DVCS6100 Digital Audio System into their new Bell 429 helicopter.
The new aircraft will be delivered by Bell Helicopter to Air
Methods Corporation for final completion of the avionics package
and EMS interior in early April this month, with scheduled delivery
to AirCare in July. The company said the DVCS6100 was chosen due to
its unique ability to effectively manage and control all audio
sources in the helicopter. Becker’s Digital multichannel
audio and intercom system, with its software configurable profiles,
provides the flexibility to specifically customize the system to
meet the demanding operational requirements of AirCare.
The DVCS6100 manages all transceivers, receivers and audio
warning sources in one central system and provides simulcast
capabilities on 8 channels. Mike Berve, AirCare and Trauma Manager,
said we selected “Becker’s DVCS6100 for our new Bell
429 helicopter based on the reputation of the product and the fact
that we wanted a state-of-the-art avionics suite. Also, we believe
the product is well suited to support our air ambulance operations.
The excellent Man-Machine-Interface, outstanding field reliability,
multiple radio handling capability, and its crystal-clear audio
quality made the DVCS6100 our audio system of choice on our new EMS
helicopter.”
"We are proud and excited that the AirCare program selected our
product, further confirming that our Digital Audio system is
continuing to gain wide acceptance throughout the Air Ambulance
industry due to its unique features and benefits," said Brett
Gardner, Director of Sales and Marketing at Becker Avionics.
"It’s a great product, and we’re fortunate to be the
brand leader in aircraft Digital Audio and intercom solutions for
Helicopter and Fixed-Wing aircraft applications. The DVCS6100 is
currently our best selling professional grade product.”
