Manufacturers notice
Attention !
EUROCOPTER, its logo, AS350, EC130, ALOUETTE, ECUREUIL,
FENESTRON, INDOC, STARFLEX, STYLENCE, VEMD, are trade marks of
the Eurocopter group.
Eurocopter’s policy is one of on-going product enhancement which means
that alterations in definition, pictures, weights, dimensions or performance
may be made at any time without notice being included in those documents
that have already been issued.
This document cannot thus be taken as an offer or serve as an appendix to a
contract without a prior check as to its validity and prior written agreement of
EUROCOPTER.
The operational or certification regulations, as defined by the local
authorities, can make compulsory the installation of some of the equipment
and recommended solutions, listed in this document. This list does not claim
to cover the whole of the worldwide operational requirements nor the
equipment not specifically related to the helicopter (for example : life jacket)
or necessary for particular missions (for example : supplemental oxygen).
The operator is responsible for ascertaining with his local authorities that the
planned configuration of the helicopter complies with regulatory requirements
for the area(s) of operations and the type(s) of mission(s) considered.
For performance data and operating limitations,reference must be made to the approved flight manual and all appropriate documents.
The data set forth in this document are general in nature and for information purposes only.

1- Foreword
Technical Data
The light single-engine EC130 B4 is the quietest, most spacious helicopter available on the market. It fulfils
the JAR 27 issue 1 regulation for VFR operation by day and night
2,427 kg /5,531 lb, the EC130 B4 is perfectly suited for the following missions:
Corporate use,
Passenger transport,
Tour operations,
Utility,
Emergency Medical Services (EMS / AMS),
The ultra-quiet EC130 B4 integrates the latest technological advances of EUROCOPTER's new generation
helicopters: a new 7/8 seats enlarged cabin with enhanced comfort, a new tail boom with quiet FENESTRON
shrouded tail rotor, a dual channel FADEC unit plus a third independent and automatic channel for engine
control, an automatic variable rotor speed control for noise reduction, a dual hydraulic system and energy
attenuating seats for each occupant. It has been designed to be environmental friendly, with an optimal
external noise pattern. It is one of the few aircraft meeting the very stringent noise level required in the
United States to fly over National Parks (GCNP). A high component community with EUROCOPTER light
helicopters' range results in a helicopter that is easy and affordable to maintain, increasing fleet versatility.
With its large cabin volume and high performance level, this "light truck" is the replacement of former
ALOUETTE III.
To optimise the Man-Machine Interface the helicopter is basically fitted with the VEMD (Vehicle and Engine
Multifunction Display) on the instrument panel. The EC130 B4 is powered with a TURBOMECA ARRIEL 2B1
engine of 847 shp (632 kW) and equipped with a dual channel FADEC system (Full Authority Digital Engine
Control), and third back-up control system. Therefore it offers the same world-beating performance
parameters, as the AS350 B3.
1. With a Maximum Gross Weight of
1 by night, in VFR, when the equipment required by operational regulations are installed and serviceable.

(- 0.5 dB / GCNP 1 noise rule 6 PAX)
(- 1.2 dB / GCNP noise rule 7 PAX)
Internal noise
The noise in the cabin is also improved in order to increase pilot and passengers comfort.
Measures have been realised on a standard aircraft and give the following mean levels :
81.3 dB SIL4
86.1 dB SIL4 in cruise flight at 120 kts
2 in hover inside ground effect
1 GCNP = Grand Canyon National Park.
2 The method of sound level measurement used is Speech Interference Level (dB SIL4). This is the arithmetic
average of 4 octave (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 kHz) levels specified in dBlin (linear decibels). This particular set of
octaves corresponds to the human voice frequency range and thus allows to evaluate the interference with
passenger communication.

4- Recommended mission configurations
EUROCOPTER propos es different mission configurations for its helicopters. This pre-selected list
of optional equipment should be regarded as a recommended minimum equipment list and can be
Technical Data
complemented by additional equipment from the optional equipment list in chapter
note that there can be incompatibilities between optional equipments. Any modification and/or
complement of the proposed mission configuration must be done in with assistance of a
EUROCOPTER sales representative.
The proposed mission configurations are done by EUROCOPTER using its years of experience in
making helicopters and in coordination with different operators of the EC130 B4 around the world.
For the EC130 B4 the recommended mission configurations are:
Passenger transport mission
Corporate transport mission (STYLENCE).

4-1 Passenger transport mission
The EC130 B4 with its FENESTRON shrouded fan tail rotor is one of the most silent helicopters flying
nowadays. Its very low noise level is 7 dB under the limits defined by the Grand Canyon National Park rule.
Technical Data
The helicopter has been designed with the occupants in mind. Each passenger is comfortably seated on
individual and comfortable seats. The wide and unobstructed cabin with very high visibility offers the
passengers an excellent view for both the front and the rear passengers. The rear passengers' seats are
placed on a raised platform to provide this excellent view.
Using the technologies of the well-known ECUREUIL family, the EC130 B4 has an exceptional high rate of
availability. All these elements make the EC130 B4 therefore the benchmark for passenger transport and
tourism helicopters.

Inspection Program
The Maintenance Program specifies the intervals between maintenance operations that are recommended
by EUROCOPTER, irrespective of whether they are mandatory or not.
The program can:
– either be used as is,
– or be adapted by each operator to suit his own specific organization, provided he complies with the
maximum intervals.
The following table provides an overview of all inspections. Scheduled inspections with shorter time intervals
have to be added to those with longer time intervals.

Note : All the “hands-on” aircraft values mentioned here above are given on the basis of a 20 000 flight
hours life cycle. They refer only to the scheduled inspections for the standard helicopter without
optional equipment in accordance with the Master Servicing Manual (MSM).
The announced Man Hours are without incoming flight, work preparation, reworking, servicing,
Service Bulletin implementation and unscheduled maintenance.
1 The interval for this T-Inspection will increase to 600 flight hrs (or 24 months periodicity) in the first quarter
of 2009. Before this date the inspection will remain at 500 flight hrs (or 24 months periodicity).
