Heathrow Control Tower

Heathrow Airport is one of busiest airports in the world, with over 200,000 passengers and 1,300 flights per day. Heathrow’s Control Tower is responsible for managing these flights.

The Control Tower is supported by a Hybrid Mass Damper, which adjusts during windy conditions to keep the tower stable. Maintaining power to such a crucial element, no matter the conditions, is the challenge.

Our UPS systems are in place to keep the dampers in the event of a power outage, until the main power supply can come back on. We have supplied multiple UPS systems, integrated across key operational and passenger sensitive services such as, the Heathrow Express and Heathrow pods as well as .
