Data Aquisition and Recorder Unit, ESD1584 (crash recorder)

The data acquisition and recorder unit, type ESD1584, is unique in that it meets the full requirements of current CAA and FAA legislation within a single 1/2 ATR case. The unit is approved to the survivability and performance standards specified in air navigation order 1972, specification no.10, and FAR 37-150-TSO-C51a. Also the unit’s signal handling capacity is sufficient to meet the requirements of specification no.10 and FAR 121-343, with ten per cent spare capacity.

The ESD1584 can be supplied with a Flight Data Entry Panel (ESD1591) if there is a requirement for manual insertion of flight data.
