The EC-130B4 is the new 6-7 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-130B4 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.

MISSIONS

ONSHORE / OFFSHORE OPERATION

MEDICAL EVACUATION OPERATION

The wide unobstructed cabin of the EC-130B4 and its large doors
allow easy loading of patients and rapid access for medical
personnel. Doctors and paramedics have plenty of space to take
care of the patient during the flight. The extremely low internal
noise level and the flat cabin floor offer a suitable environment to
install fragile and bulky medical equipment.
The fuel tank being independent form the cabin, that allows more
space to accommodate 1 or 2 stretchers and 2 medical attendants
on adjustable energy absorbing seats.
