PV45 45kVA 400Hz MOBILE ELECTRICAL GROUND POWER UNIT The PV45 GPU improves on the successful PV40 GPU with increased power output as well as many additional features. In particular, the use of a 12-pulse rectifier provides improved input harmonics and power factor without compromising robustness and reliability. Specifically designed for hangar use, with optional plinth for fixed indoor or outdoor installation. With a power rating of 45kVA, the PV45 start power unit is targeted at the small to medium sized aircraft. As a manufacturer and exclusive provider of ground power at major air shows, Powervamp’s engineers have been uniquely placed to operate the company’s converters on all the world’s latest generation aircraft, gaining unrivalled data and experience while working alongside the airframe manufacturers’ test and field engineers. In this respect Powervamp is unique.

Operation Input Isolator Switch Fitted with terminal shrouds and mechanical door interlock, this ensures maximum user safety as the door cannot be opened until the switch is in the off position. Once this switch is in the on position, the system is in standby ready for use, no complicated start sequence required! Rectifier The rectifier supplies low ripple DC to the inverter section using rugged 12- pulse technology, the rectifier offers near unity input power factor (> 0.97) with low harmonic content. Near Unity Power Factor = Lower input current Low Harmonic Content = Less strain on the electrical...
