Servizi Elicotteristici Italiani is exhibiting its new Silens cabin noise and vibration abatement system installed on an AgustaWestland AW139 VIP helicopter on static display.
Produced to an AgustaWestland specification, Silens deploys a self-sustaining composite structure to form a secluded shell fixed to the helicopter's lower structure.
The shell, isolated from the ceiling and the rest of the fuselage, is intended to attenuate transmission of noise and transmission into the cabin. Silens will be available on all AW139 VIP helicopters equipped with hinged passenger doors.
