Burrana, the aerospace technology supplier, has secured a launch airline customer for its RISE Power in-seat power system on a Boeing 737 line-fit programme. Burrana says the contract (the client is undisclosed) marks an important point in the company’s efforts to expand the availability of its in-seat power technology across major commercial aircraft platforms.
The deal marks the first line-fit application of the RISE Power system on a Boeing aircraft. The system is offerable on the 737 MAX, and Burrana says that plans are progressing to install a RISE Power demonstrator at the Boeing 737 Studio in Renton, USA, as a showcase of the technology for airline evaluations and selections.
The launch airline customer has selected the version of RISE Power with combined USB-A and 60W USB-C charging, supporting the industry’s transition towards high-performance USB charging and away from traditional AC power systems.
Visitors to APEX FTE Expo at Marina Sands Expo & Convention Centre in Singapore next week (18–19 November) can try out the RISE Power system at Burrana’s booth (113).
