DEVICE 9E6 - Universal Ejection Seat Trainer
Orlando, FL
The ejection seat is driven upward by a pneumatic cylinder, producing an acceleration of up to 6 "g" at 125 "g"/sec. An automated "g" force monitoring system is installed to monitor the operational condition of the instructor's control panel and record the "g" forces that the ejection seat sustained during firing. The seat and its occupant rise 6 to 12 feet and are then returned to the loading position with the descent rate controlled by means of a hydraulic/mechanical braking system.
