Description / Abstract:
This document specifies the general functional and performance
requirements for a self-propelled,
boom type aerial device equipped with an aircraft deicing/anti-icing
fluid (ADF) spraying system.
The unit shall be highly maneuverable for deicing and anti-icing all
exterior surfaces of wide-body
and narrow-body aircraft, e.g., B747 and DC9. The vehicle shall be
suitable for day and night
operations. The vehicle and all associated systems shall operate
satisfactorily under the
temperature conditions between −40 and 50 °C (−40 and
122 °F) and in continuous
humidity of up to 100%.
It is not within the scope of this document to specify a comprehensive
set of technical design
criteria for aircraft deicing/anti-icing vehicles but only those
relating to functional and
performance requirements.
