Ground Power Unit (GPU)

About

Ground Power Unit(GPU) is used to give the power to the aircraft which is in the ground during the maintenance and repair work the GPU is used to power up the system externally, This GPU is having Dual output one is 45Kva AC power that consist of L-L 200V and L-N 115V ,150A and 400HZ four wire system another one will be DC 28.5 V 800A two wire system and it will deliver the two output simultaneously up to maximum range of 45 KVA, the following components are used to design the GPU.

Overview: A diesel engine/electric motor coupled with highly reliable alternator provides a perfect output to your aircrafts. With a touchscreen control panel and interactive GUI, this GPU is easy to operate and effortless to maintain. Our AC Ground Power Unit can be supplied with additional 28.5V DC module for obtaining commercial power voltage for tools, appliances. etc. during aircraft maintenance. it is a feature-rich software built for remote operations of GSE with parameter details, fault alarms, alerts and periodic maintenance schedule.
