EFI-890R | Advanced Flight Display

The Perfect Fit™ for Aircraft Flight Decks

The EFI-890R features an adaptable design proving valuable in forward-fit and retrofit applications where interface flexibility is essential. Extensive integration capabilities support a host of aircraft platforms and existing avionics, providing The Perfect Fit for your flight deck.

The EFI-890R Advanced Flight Display offers flexibility for installation as a stand-alone Primary Flight Display (PFD) or Multi-Function Display (MFD), as well as a fully integrated PFD/Navigation Display (ND) cockpit system. The unit is optimally sized, featuring a lightweight, compact housing while offering a large, 8.9-inch diagonal LCD display.

The high-resolution, high-contrast display provides superior readability throughout a full range of ambient lighting conditions including bright sunlight and dim nighttime environments. Extremely wide viewing angles are also accommodated.

A unique LED backlight system with reduced power requirements produces a lower unit operating temperature for superior reliability. This LED backlight system produces brighter, clearer displays with improved color uniformity.

The EFI-890R replaces ADI, HSI, Radar Indicator, Altimeter, VSI, RMI and Airspeed Indicators with PFD and ND large multi-format displays. The dedicated Engine Display available in certain aircraft installations replaces the existing individual electromechanical instruments with a single screen, dual-channel redundancy.

Versatile Retrofit and Forward-fit Applications

Featuring an adaptable design, the EFI-890R is a proven solution for retrofit and forward-fit applications in over 40 aircraft types. It is certified for a full range of platforms, meeting certification requirements for Part 23, 25, 27 and 29 operators worldwide.

With interface capabilities for numerous flight deck instruments, its versatile design supports direct inputs from a multitude of analog and digital aircraft systems from autopilots and flight directors to radars and Terrain Awareness Warning Systems (TAWS). For operators, this eliminates the cost of replacing existing systems or the need for additional external symbol generators resulting in significant cost-savings.

The EFI-890R offers a solution to best match your aircraft and your operational requirements.

Control Panels

An array of Dzus-mounted control panels support 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-display configurations with dedicated/shared control. Model options for compatibility with night vision goggles are also available.

Course/Heading Control Panel is available in single or dual control format. It controls setting of the heading reference bug and short range NAV source course, with a “push to sync” function available for both.

Reference Select Control Pane supports setting of Speed and Altitude Reference Bugs on the PFD, Altitude Preselect andairspeed/altitude units of measure. Available in either a single or dual control format.

PFD Combined Display Control Panel provides for NAV / BRG source select, baro altitude / minimums select, RA / DA toggle, ADC revert, attitude / heading revert, display revert, and source transfer for the on-side PFD and ND/MFD. Also provides for selection of terrain, weather, and traffic for the on-side PFD. This is not a weather radar control panel. This control panel is also available in a vertical format.

Display and Radar Control Panel provides for weather radar range, antenna tilt, and mode control for compatible weather radar systems. It also provides for traffic, terrain, and external video selection for the ND/MFD.

Display Control Panel provides for traffic, terrain, weather and external video selection for the ND/MFD.
