Eaton selected for Dassault Falcon 10X to support fuel-efficiency and performance objectives

• Long-standing collaboration brings hydraulic and fuel system technologies to Dassault’s next-generation business jet

CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Intelligent power management company Eaton was selected by Dassault Aviation to provide hydraulic power system and fuel system technologies for the Falcon 10X, the company’s new ultra-long-range business jet. Building on a longstanding collaboration between the two companies, Eaton’s flight-proven technologies and engineering expertise are expected to support aircraft weight, fuel-efficiency and certification objectives ahead of the aircraft’s entry into service.

Eaton’s Hydraulic Power Generation System powers critical aircraft functions, including flight controls, landing gear, braking and steering systems, while providing monitoring and redundancy intended to support safety and reliability objectives. The agreement between Dassault and Eaton also includes system-level modeling, validation activities and a test rig to support Dassault’s system-level European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) certification activities. Eaton also supported ground testing associated with the Falcon 10X’s successful first flight.

“The Falcon 10X is setting a new benchmark in business aviation, and Eaton is proud to help make it possible,” said Armando Tellez, President, Fuel and Motion Control Systems Division. “Our advanced technologies are designed to deliver the performance, reliability and safety that customers expect from industry-leading platforms.”

Eaton fuel system technologies selected for the Falcon 10X build on proven products already deployed across commercial and business aviation platforms. Their established performance can help reduce development complexity, accelerate production readiness and reduce program risk.

For decades, Eaton’s aerospace solutions have maintained a long track record of reliability over countless flight hours across multiple platforms. Utilizing engineering resources from across the world, Eaton will complete the final stages of application-specific development later this year.
