Save $1,000,000 on a Twin Jet

Ultra-Efficient Fuel Delivery System for Electronically Controlled Jet Engines

Development of a breakthrough new Ultra-Efficient Fuel Delivery System for electronically controlled jet engines has been announced by Argo-Tech Corporation. Incorporating new pumping technology and combining several existing engine fuel accessories into one fuel delivery system, the C.E.N.T.S. Fuel Delivery System reduces fuel system operating temperature, and is up to four times more fuel efficient than the system it replaces. The company says the new C.E.N.T.S. Fuel Delivery System can save an operator as much as $5.00 per flying hour on a twin-engine jet aircraft, which, added to maintenance and overhaul savings, could add up to lifetime savings of $1,000,000 per aircraft.

Marketing Director Mesh Fiegenbaum told us, "We intend to sell this straight into the STC market -- right to the aftermarket, the people who can get the most benefit from it." Overhaul costs of the components that are to be replaced by the new technology, should approximately equal the costs of the C.E.N.T.S. upgrade.

The C.E.N.T.S. Fuel Delivery System (for Cost Effective Next-generation Technology Systems) is currently on test at Argo-Tech's Cleveland headquarters and has already successfully completed the equivalent of one year's flight experience. Several major jet engine OEMs have positively responded and are preparing plans to perform testing at their facilities. Argo-Tech anticipates initial deliveries in 2005.

The C.E.N.T.S. Fuel Delivery System can be retrofitted to the more than 10,000 electronically controlled commercial aircraft engines currently in service, and is a method for Argo-Tech to bring its C.E.N.T.S. Fuel Delivery System solutions directly into the engine aftermarket. The result is a breakthrough innovation that "Makes money for the customer, and provides cash flow to Argo-Tech."

Argo-Tech Corporation designs and manufactures high-performance fuel flow devices for the aerospace industry. The Company is the world's leading supplier of main engine fuel pumps to the aviation industry and a leading supplier of airframe products, aerial refueling systems, ground refueling systems, and industrial liquefied gas pumps and nozzles.
