UnitronPOWER SYSTEMS APPLICATION: Since its beginning in 1960, Unitron has specialized in the design and development of reliable solid-state power systems. Through an innovative design, advanced self-diagnostic systems (BITE) and modular construction, Unitron products assure maximum power availability and minimal repair time. The PwrKart Series includes lightweight 115/200VAC, 400Hz, 28VDC, and 270VDC mobile converters for aircraft ground power applications in the hangar or ramp area. The dual output AC/DC PwrKart provides simultaneous AC and DC power from a single GPU. Kilowatt power for the complete unit is limited to the nominal rating of the 400Hz output of the unit. Because a single unit can do the work of two, Unitron's AC/DC PwrKart reduces operating and maintenance costs, and eases ramp congestion. Output power ratings for the 115/200VAC, 400Hz mobile PwrKart range from 20kVA to 90kVA. Larger power ratings are available in towable, fixed and bridge-mounted configurations. In addition, Unitron offers a combination AC/DC GPU, which provides simultaneous 115/200VAC, 400Hz or 270VDC at 72kW, with 28VDC power from a single unit.
