Sage Part’s Ramptech BellyCool Ducting features a specially designed section of ducting that diverts a regulated amount of cool air from the PCA (Pre-Conditioned Air) unit and directs that air into the baggage hold. The amount of air diverted does not impact the aircraft’s cooling process in any measurable way. Installation of Ramptech BellyCool Ducting is fast and simple. A 4.5-inch (114 mm) section of high-quality wire-reinforced duct is attached to the main supply line via an access point near the ducting reducer. This connection utilizes a Velcro connected joint, which can be closed when the BellyCool Ducting product is not in use. When closed, it is used as a standard ducting reducer. The reducer and access port are located at the end of an 8-inch (203 mm) Flex Link ducting reducer. The length of the FlexLink reducer can vary to meet the specific needs of ground support operations. As an important added benefit, the FlexLink is designed to bring the reducer and the BellyCool port to the ground – where the connection is easier to work with – while also eliminating the extra load that is lifted to the aircraft connection port.
