Manufacturers notice
Attention !
EUROCOPTER, its logo, AS350, EC130, ALOUETTE, ECUREUIL,
FENESTRON, INDOC, STARFLEX, STYLENCE, VEMD, are trade marks of
the Eurocopter group.

Eurocopter’s policy is one of on-going product enhancement which means

that alterations in definition, pictures, weights, dimensions or performance
may be made at any time without notice being included in those documents
that have already been issued.

This document cannot thus be taken as an offer or serve as an appendix to a

contract without a prior check as to its validity and prior written agreement of
EUROCOPTER.

The operational or certification regulations, as defined by the local

authorities, can make compulsory the installation of some of the equipment
and recommended solutions, listed in this document. This list does not claim
to cover the whole of the worldwide operational requirements nor the
equipment not specifically related to the helicopter (for example : life jacket)
or necessary for particular missions (for example : supplemental oxygen).
The operator is responsible for ascertaining with his local authorities that the
planned configuration of the helicopter complies with regulatory requirements
for the area(s) of operations and the type(s) of mission(s) considered.

The data set forth in this document are general in nature and for information purposes only.
For performance data and operating limitations,reference must be made to the approved flight manual and all appropriate documents.

1- Foreword

The light single-engine EC130 B4 is the last member of the successful ECUREUIL family.
The ultra-quiet EC130 B4 integrates the latest technological advances of EUROCOPTER's new generation
helicopters : a new 7/8 seats enlarged cabin with enhanced comfort, a new tailboom with quiet FENESTRON
shrouded tail rotor, a dual channel FADEC unit plus a third independent and automatic channel for engine
control, an automatic variable rotor speed control for noise reduction, a dual hydraulic system. The main
rotor head, main gearbox and engine (except FADEC) are those of the AS350 B3, ensuring the EC130 B4
an high level of performance.
It is fully equipped with VFR day-time radio navigation (standard "ready to fly" package) associated with an
integrated instrument panel (double color screen VEMD, GPS with color map display) and has the capability
of night-time VFR flight.
Component community with EUROCOPTER light helicopters' range results in a helicopter respectful of the
environment, easy and affordable to maintain, offering the same world-beating performance parameters, as
the AS350 B3.
The EC130 B4 plays in the passengers transport register and answers to the public transport, corporate and
tourism market segments thanks to its enlarged cabin, its modern technology, its comfort, and its "ready-to-
fly" concept. It is used as well, as a "light truck" for utility, EMS and parapublic missions thanks to its low
external noise signature, large cabin volume and high performance level, and is considered by some military
forces as replacement of former ALOUETTE III.

The data set forth in this document are general in nature and for information purposes only.

In accordance with ICAO annex 16, chapter 8

„ Overflight 84,3 EPNdB (- 8.5 dB / ICAO limit)

(- 0.5 dB / GCNP 1 noise rule 6 PAX)
(- 1.2 dB / GCNP noise rule 7 PAX)

Internal noise
The noise in the cabin is also improved in order to increase pilot and passengers comfort.
Measures have been realised on a standard aircraft and give the following mean levels :
„ 81.3 dB SIL4 2 in hover inside ground effect
„ 86.1 dB SIL4 in cruise flight at 120 kts

1 GCNP = Grand Canyon National Park.

2 The method of sound level measurement used is Speech Interference Level (dB SIL4). This is the arithmetic
average of 4 octave (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 kHz) levels specified in dBlin (linear decibels). This particular set of
octaves corresponds to the human voice frequency range and thus allows to evaluate the interference with
passenger communication.

7- Customer Service Overview

Assets

„ Possibility to perform maximum of maintenance tasks by operators through modular exchange,

„ Low required manhours on the scheduled maintenance,
„ Maintenance simple and easy to perform thanks to optimized accessibility to dynamic components
and equipment,
„ Among innovative equipment providing flight information, the "Vehicle and Engine Multifunction
Display" (VEMD) also offers maintenance information (failure data recording and troubleshooting
information). Usage data may be downloaded on a laptop for fleet data management, in compliance
with some operational requirements,
„ Limited number of tools,
„ No test bench,
„ Among technical publications, Master Servicing Manual has been written in such a manner that it can
be directly used as a maintenance tasks repertory in the workshop.

Maintenance and maintainability data

"Scheduled" and "unscheduled" maintenance are considered in manhour figures given hereafter.

Scheduled maintenance
„ Possibility to perform maintenance tasks according to each operator needs :

z blocked whole inspection (helicopter unavailable during all the inspection duration),

or

z "splitted" inspection (helicopter available for flight since the inspection is performed in several
batches of maintenance operations, in respect with the limitations and periodicities defined in the
Master Servicing Manual).

The data set forth in this document are general in nature and for information purposes only.
For performance data and operating limitations,reference must be made to the approved flight manual and all appropriate documents.
