From the largest aircraft engine inthe world to the world’s largest fleet

Juniperbreakthrough in serviceconnectivityJuniper’s engine hot water washingsystem, the 2 x 25 Gallon and 2 x 50Gallon Compressor Washing Rigs,currently used by over 120 airlinesworldwide, can now be adapted toaccept aircraft ground power(115/200v,3 phase, 400Hz).

These units are available as either lowmaintenance and battery free - requiring theAirport’s GPU to be set to ‘bypass’- or withan on-board battery for connections withoutthe ‘bypass’ option.

The Advantages of the our new electricalsystem are:

• More user friendly• No more connection problems• Can be connected wherever there isaccess to aircraft ground power

• Water tanks heated to 70ºc within 1 hour• Military and Commercial applications

Using Juniper’s unique water washsystem, we feel confident in tacklingmost engines. From the world’s largest- the GE90-115B - down to the CF34-8C.With the appropriate tooling in place nojob is beyond us.

There is increasing awareness worldwide ofthe need for the aviation industry to makeengines more efficient and reduceemissions. Regular water washing isacknowledged within the industry as a costeffective and worthwhile weapon in this fightfor increased efficiency - restoring lost EGTmargins and helping prolong engine life.

GE is well aware of these benefits and hasrecommended the Juniper wash cartmethod of water washing in it’s aircraftmaintenance manuals. So when SingaporeAirlines needed one of it’s GE90-115Bengines washing, Juniper was one of theobvious choices.

When carrying out a compressor wash onan engine, a licensed engineer is alwaysrequired to motor over the engine, togetherwith one or two aircraft mechanics to carryout disconnections or re-connections ofPS3/P3B and PT25 lines to the FADEC unit,

Demonstration wash at the FedEx Headquarters, Memphis International Airport

no matter who’s equipment is used.Singapore Airlines considered this the idealopportunity to compare the Juniper washcart method with other compressor washingservices available.

In October of this year, at the invitation ofSingapore Airlines, we used the 2 x 25gallon compressor wash rig and our GE90-115B long engine probes to perform asuccessful demonstration wash on one oftheir Boeing 777s fitted with the GE90-115Bengine at Changi Airport and the Airline’srepresentatives were struck by how simple,effective and user-friendly the wholeprocedure was.

Meanwhile, having been impressed with aJuniper 2x25 gallon rig loaned fromAmerican Airlines, FedEx - operator of theworld’s largest fleet of civil aircraft - decidedto contact Juniper direct and arrange a visit.Consequently, in early November 2007, ahighly successful demonstration wascarried out using the Juniper 2x25 galloncompressor wash rig at MemphisInternational Airport, FedEx headquarters,and an order is now in the pipeline for tenrigs together with all the appropriate tooling.

Juniper-

Skymark Airlines in Tokyo, Japan hadbeen having problems withgrasshopper ingestion into theirCFM56-7 engines and the companyrepresentative, Muneo Asami, visitedthe Juniper Factory in November ‘06 tosee a demonstration of the our 2 x 25gallon compressor washing rig.

As Juniper would be visiting China andJapan early in 2007, It was agreed thatSteve Marshall would meet with SkymarkAirlines at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport to discusstheir requirements and bring them up-to-date about the new 400Hz electrical systemthat allows direct connection to aircraftGPUs.

The meeting took place as planned, with thenew electrical system and it’s increasedoperational flexibility being particularly wellreceived, as their hangar only has limitedfacilities and no suitable on-site powersupply.

It was agreed that an order would be placedfor the Juniper 2x25 gallon rig together withtooling for the CFM56-7 and CF6-80C2engines.

Delegates on the steps of the CAAC Conference centre, Beijing, China

In June of 2006 we were presented witha wonderful opportunity to introduceJuniper to representatives from most ofthe major airlines in China.

Juniper’s presence at the CAAC (CivilAviation Authority China) Conference atBeijing was strongly supported andencouraged by GE who recommend theJuniper water wash system.

During the conference, GE touched on theJuniper system within their own Companypowerpoint presentation and then SteveMarshall, Juniper’s MD, was introduced andinvited by Zhang Yan of Beijing Power-RingTech & Trading Ltd. to expand on this with awell received presentation of his own.

The following day there was a furthermeeting with Beijing Power-Ring Tech &Trading Ltd. where an agreement wasreached confirming them as Juniper’sexclusive agents in China.

China SouthernAirlines-

A warm welcome on a cold day!

ANA keep on trucking!

Steve Marshall with one of the customised vehicles, accompanied by Mr. Hironori Kanazu from our Japanese agents, ANA Trading Co.Ltd. (secondfrom left) and some of the team from All Nippon Airways at their Haneda Airport facility

While in Japan Steve Marshall,Juniper’s MD, took the opportunity tovisit All Nippon Airways at HanedaAirport in Tokyo.

ANA have recently purchased nine JuniperCompressor Wash Rigs (six 2x25 gallon andthree 2x50 gallon rigs) following a visit to ourAsh House facility in 2006 (see previousnewsletter) and Steve was surprised todiscover that they have ingeniously housedthem in purpose built water wash vehicleswhich have been despatched to theirfacilities throughout Japan.

Each vehicle is equipped with an aircompressor, generator, hose reels,spotlights and custom made storage for arange of Juniper’s washing probes togetherwith many other accessories to make thewashing of engines at remote areas in mostconditions much easier.

From Japan, Steve then visited China,and in the course of this visit paid ascheduled call on China SouthernAirlines at their Harbin Headquartersaccompanied by our Chinese agents,Beijing Power Ring Tech & Trading Ltd.,to give a presentation of the Junipercompressor washing system.

As luck would have it, one of theirengineers, Mark, had prior experience ofworking with Juniper equipment during arecent stint working in Canada, and he washappy to enthusiastically endorseeverything Steve said.

A particular difficulty in this part of the worldare the very low temperatures for fivemonths of the year, so Mark was delightedby the improved heating system on the2x25 gallon rig. All in all, an excellent visitand a very positive response.Rear of one of the ANA vehicles.

Environmentally, the collection of wastewater and it’s impurities following anengine water wash is something that isconcerning the Aviation Industry, andhaving seen a demonstration of KLM’snew vapour unit and water collectionsystem in operation with a Juniper 2x50gallon compressor washing rig in one ofthe hangars at Schiphol Airport, we atJuniper have been giving some thoughtto the problem.

In the meantime, BMI in the East Midlands(UK) have also been considering watercollection alternatives, and when theirattention was drawn to reports of Juniper’srecent water washes in Japan using ANA’sown collection system, they decided tocontact us to see if a workable solutioncould be found.

We believe that a simple water collectioncart sited under the engine is the mostappropriate and cost effective method ofcollection when Juniper equipment is beingused and the first unit has already beendelivered to BMI.

Having visited My Travel at ManchesterAirport a few days earlier to measure upand confirm procedures, Juniperreturned in February 2007 todemonstrate their new CFM56-5B longengine probes during an engine waterwash on an Airbus A321.

Although the wash was satisfactory, we feltthat a few small modifications and someminor adjustments to the installationprocedures would pay dividends, andhaving done this a highly successful furtherwash was carried out a few days later.

Juniper were contracted to carry out ahot water wash on a Boeing 737-300 forJet2.com at Newcastle Airport on aremote and fairly inaccessible part ofthe airfield without adequate services.

Fortunately, Juniper’s new 400Hz electricalsystem was developed for just this sort ofsituation and a GPU was used to heat thetanks and the wash was carried outsuccessfully. Altogether, this was anexcellent demonstration of the new heatingsystem and Jet 2 were impressed enough toconsider buying one of our 2 x 25 galloncompressor washing rigs.

In May 2006 Virgin Atlantic Airlinesinvited Juniper to demonstrate the 2 x25 gallon compressor washing rigperforming a water wash on a CF6-80C2engine fitted to one of their Boeing 747-400 fleet at Gatwick Airport.

The demonstration was a complete successand Virgin Atlantic have since ordered our 2 x 50 gallon rig together with tooling for theCF6-80C2 engines.

In June of 2006 our Italian agents, AlfaSupport, performed a demonstration washon a Tornado aircraft for the Italian Airforceusing Juniper’s Foamer 50 and kindly sent

Coming, Mr President

CF34-8C/E Probes-

Juniper washing rigs go right to the top!

A successful new addition to a growing range.

Having encountered difficultiesobtaining a suitable wash rig, Airlogicapproached Juniper to supply one oftheir 2x25 gallon compressor washingrigs for the new Russian PresidentialFleet Aircraft, presently underconstruction.

To fulfill the conditions of this order, Junipervisited Aeroflot at SheremetyevoInternational Airport, Moscow early inSeptember 2007 to design new tooling forthe Perm PS-90A engines fitted to theIlyushin IL96 aircraft. As the Perm enginesare similar to the Rolls Royce RB211-524engines in that they cannot be opened up,we decided that the best way totackle the wash efficiently was touse our recently developed longprobe method and design toolingaccordingly.

During this visit we were also askedto supply a hand-held washing lancefor the aircraft’s APU.

The following day we visited nearbyDomodedovo International Airport toinvestigate the possiblity of using thesame long probes on the Perm D30-KU engines fitted to the Ilyushin IL62Maircraft. Unfortunately, due to theengine construction, washing usingour long probes proved impossibleand we proposed using a purposebuilt hand-held washing lance. We also

GE were keen to know ifJuniper’s CF34-10E engineprobes would fit the CF34-8E engine and suggestedthat Juniper visit LOT inPoland in April 2007 to testthem on one of theirEmbraer ERJ-170 aircraft.

As suspected, the probesdidn’t fit and returning toJuniper’s Ash House facility, acompletely new set weredesigned, manufactured andsent back for further trials.These worked perfectly.

recommended using the washing lance designed for the IL96on this aircraft’s APU, as it would prove equally effective.

A successful visit resulted in the rig and all appropriatetooling being ordered and delivered.

As a footnote to this story - In late 2006 we suppliedfour mobile compressor washing rigs to WestlandAircraft who had been awarded the contract to supplyand service a fleet of EH101 medium rangehelicopters destined for American VIP andPresidential transport roles.

So - Juniper is now helping to keep two presidentsenvironmentally friendly and airborne!

In the meantime, Air One in Italy were havingproblems cleaning the CF34-8C enginesfitted to their Bombardier CRJ900 aircraftand GE commissioned Juniper todemonstrate the new tooling for them attheir base in Ciampino Airport, Rome. With aslight modification the probes were found towork perfectly on both the 8E and 8Cvariations of the engine, and the resultswere so positive that Air One has nowordered a 2x25 gallon rig complete with thenew CF34-8C/E probes for themselves.

However, the story doesn’t end there - thenew tooling proved so successful, that GEasked for Juniper’s demonstration rig andnew tooling to be sent on to Saudi Airlines,who were having similar difficulties washingthe engines on their fleet of Embraer 170aircraft. They have since ordered two rigscomplete with tooling.The new CF34-8C/E probes being demonstrated for Air One at

The AvalonAirshow Down Under

Juniper to the rescue!Tricky test cell installation for Japanese manufacturing giant

Juniper was well represented at theprestigeous Australian Airshow at AvalonAirport early in 2007 thanks to the hard workof our long-standing Australian agent JohnBurleigh.

John’s company, Pacific Dynamics, hasrecently merged with Defcon Technologies,another Sydney based company, and John willcontinue to service his existing contacts fromwithin the new organisation.

INC Engineering, engineers for themassive Engine manufacturer IHICorporation in Japan, had placed anorder with T&E Co. Ltd. for one ofJuniper’s 2x25 gallon compressorwashing rigs intended for installation intheir engine test cell. There would beparticular problems to overcome withthis installation and Juniper werecontacted for their advice.

As Steve Marshall, Juniper’s MD was due tovisit Japan, it was decided that he would callon INC Engineering accompanied by Mr.Teruhisa Ogawa of T&E Co. Ltd. and assesswhat was required.

Back at Ash House, the necessarymodifications were completed and the rigdespatched to INC, where it has now beensuccessfully installed at IHI.
