Expertise in Aerospace
Manufacturing the future of Aerospace with Crouzet components : sensors, circuit breakers, cockpit controls, actuators and instrumentation services
Applications we serve
Aircraft applications
Crouzet produces high performance aircraft components and has secured over the years a leading role in six product lines and services.
The control wheel is used to fly fixed-wing aircraft. Crouzet's wide range of control wheels designs and pushbuttons enables us to provide quick and accurate responses to any customer's need or requirements.
Crouzet proposes Circuit breakers pannels for regional jet, business jet and helicopter (military and civil)
The proximity sensors are used to monitor the deployed/stowed position, opened/closed position of doors and latching mechanism.
Cargo loading systems help increase both cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency of passenger, freighter and military aircraft. The proximity sensors are used to monitor the position of the load.
Crouzet proposes Remote Control Circuit Breaker (RCCB) which merges a contactor function and a CB function. The RCCB has a status display window and a mechanical "TRIP indicator".
Thrust reverser system contributes to slowing down the aircraft after touch-down, reducing brake wear out and enabling shorter landing distances. The proximity sensors are used to monitor the deployed or stowed position of the thrust reverser door.
For safe operation, protection of electrical wiring is essential. Fuel tanks are protected from any ignition sources that could occur due to puncture caused by arcing. Crouzet proposes ground fault circuit breaker with arc fault which provides built-in test features that allow aircraft maintenance personal to verify that ground fault protection is functional or that a ground fault has occurred.
Landing Gear proximity sensors provide signals to monitor landing gear position (up or down) and gear doors (opened or closed). Weight on Wheels (WoW) switches indicate whether the weight of an aircraft is resting in its wheels. This information reveals wether the aircraft is airbone or on the ground.
Crouzet proposes ground fault circuit breaker with arc fault which provides built-in test features that allow aircraft maintenance personal to verify that ground fault protection is functional or that a ground fault has occurred.
Flight control system interprets the pilot's commands and moves the flight controle surfaces (flap and slat) as necessary to achieve the desired response. The proximity sensors provide information about slats and flaps position for a stable flight.
Crouzet proposes Remote Control Circuit Breaker (RCCB) which merges a contactor function and a CB function. The RCCB has a status display window and a mechanical "TRIP indicator". The switches detect the position of the manual selector valves, locking shaft, locking handle, safety shaft, and door sills.
Our DC Brush and Brushles motor can acuate the premium seats and pilot seats for motorized functions to provide noiseless and smooth movements for passengers experience. Our passenger presence sensor can be integrated in passenger seats to anticipate any deformation of the seat and detect the presense of the passenger.
Crouzet ensures the structural integrity and reliability of aircrafts structure during ground and flight tests. Indeed, we operate to measure structural forces and stresses on parts such as landing gear, wings, nacelles.

Helicopter applications
Crouzet produces high performance helicopter components and has secured over the years a leading role in six product lines and services.
Crouzet proposes Circuit breakers pannels for civil and military helicopter.
The grips is used to fly Helicopters and a majority of military fighter aircraft. Crouzet wide range of grips designs and pushbuttons enables us to provide quick and accurate responses to any customer's need or requirements.
Crouzet proposes a circuit breaker range from the standard family to the high "shock and vibration" family.
Our high power density motor are used in blade droop systems to prevent any flapping blade from hitting the helicopter fuselage.
Landing Gear proximity sensors provide signals to monitor landing gear position (up or down) and gear doors (opened or closed).
Our standard or custom actuating solution are integrated in fuel pumps.
Crouzet ensures the structural integrity and reliability of Helicopters structure during ground and flight tests. Indeed, we operate to measure structural forces and stresses on critical parts such as landing gear, engines or wings.
Crouzet proposes ground fault circuit breaker with arc fault which provides built-in test features that allow aircraft maintenance personal to verify that ground fault protection is functional or that a ground fault has occurred.
Detection of the tail position. Limit switches are used to monitor the tail rotor position.

Urban Air Mobility Applications
Crouzet manufactures high performance, reliable and robust components and equipments to shape the future of the Urban Air Mobility market
The back up unit is used as a second mean to transmit the pilot's command to the eVTOL. This safety equipment is electromechanical and DAL-A
Control Wheels & Grips are used to transmit the pilot's commands to the avionics or to the inceptor with a design assurance level-A. Our control wheels & grips are fully customizable and resistant to severe environments
The proximity sensors are used to monitor the deployed/stowed position, opened/closed position of doors and latching mechanism.
We offer connected circuit breaker panels transfering to the avionnics circuit breakers status and current value (ampers) to the avionics DAL-C.
Crouzet has the ability to manufacture compact and high power density motors enabling to actuate the eVTOL for propulsion and actuation.
Our Seat Belt Reminder is a safety & patented switch that detects accurately the presence of a passenger in order to monitor seat belt systems to ensure passengers eVTOL safety.
Proximity sensors signal to the avionics the landing gear position. Weight on Wheels (WoW) switches indicate whether the eVTOL is resting on its wheels or its skids. This information is safety critical.
