The EC 130 B4 is the new 7-8 seat single engine helicopter in the Eurocopter product range offering particular qualities of silence, comfort and spaciousness.
It features a low external noise emission, 8.5dB under the ICAO requirement.
This is achieved by the low noise "Fenestron" and the automatic control of the rotor RPM,a function which automatically optimizes the overflight noise signature without operational limitations.
The very roomy and modular cabin (width 2.03m compared to 1.87m for the Ecureuil), has a low internal noise level, and all seats comply with FAA regulations in terms of energy absorbtion.
The EC 130 B4 is powered by a Turbomeca ARRIEL 2B1 turbine engine, complete with dual channel digital engine control system (FADEC), and a back-up control box that automatically controls the engine in case of total failure of both digital channels of the FADEC.
