Parker Hannifin announced that Rolls-Royce has exercised its option to add Parker Aerospace’s heat management valves to the pneumatics package it already supplies on the Trent XWB engine program. Parker estimates that the package will generate approximately $175 million in revenues over the life of the program. Product design, manufacture, and support will be completed by the Parker Aerospace Fluid Systems Division in Irvine, California.
The Rolls-Royce Trent XWB is the sole engine currently available to power the new Airbus A350 XWB family of aircraft.
