PW800

The PurePower® PW800 from the exciting new family of Pratt & Whitney PurePower® engines is a new centerline engine with game-changing technologies to deliver double-digit improvements in fuel consumption, environmental emissions, engine noise and operating costs. PurePower engines will power long-range business jets, regional airliners and single-aisle aircraft, making them the first engine family to span Pratt & Whitney centres of excellence in Canada and the United States.

The first PurePower® engines include the 10,000 to 20,000-pound thrust class advanced turbofan engine—designated the PurePower PW800. The PurePower 1000G engine, formally the Pratt & Whitney Geared Turbofan™ engine, is the exclusive power plant for the Mitsubishi Regional Jet (MRJ) at 15,000 to 17,000 pounds of thrust and the Bombardier CSeries mainline aircraft at 24,000 pounds of thrust.

The new generation PurePower® PW800 engine family raises the bar on performance and economics by taking advantage of the latest material, aerodynamic and design technologies. The engine incorporates advanced fan, compressor, turbine and low-emissions TALON™ combustion systems for exceptional fuel consumption, future thrust-growth capability and improved environmental performance.

The PW800 engine will surpass International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) emissions standards by up to 50 per cent for nitrous oxide and 35 per cent for carbon monoxide, and will achieve low unburned hydrocarbons and smoke emissions. The PW800 is also designed for low noise, well below ICAO Stage IV standards. This new-generation engine also comes equipped with Pratt & Whitney Canada diagnostics capability for proactive maintenance and longer time on wing.
