Jet Aviation AG, based in Basel Switzerland, has ordered CTT Systems’ moisture management system - Zonal Comfort System - to be installed in a vip Boeing B747SP aircraft. A company spokesman explained: “The system provides a comfortable humidity level throughout the entire cabin, including the upper deck. At the same time condensation will be prevented by distributing dry air from the Zonal Drying System between the cabin and the aircraft skin. Delivery of the system is planned for the second quarter of 2002.

The Zonal Comfort System is based upon evaporative cooling technique, the same principle

that moistens the surrounding air through evaporation from lakes and rivers, developed by Swedish company Munters.
