The START PAC GREEN® is designed to replace diesel power units GPU providing the same service in a greener environment. This GPU is the world's first, entirely battery powered and does not require an internal combustion engine for power. It provides starting and continuous power capabilities away from the hangar.
Totally emission free, thanks to the large battery capacity, it is capable of starting turbine and piston engines multiple times and powering up aircraft for maintenance on various cockpit aircraft systems (such as inverters, avionics, GPS and other high draw aircraft systems, including on-board air conditioning). When plugged in, the unit can be used as a power supply, providing 28V clean continuous power as long as needed.
The START PAC GREEN® can be used as a fully independent unit in the hangar without causing pollution and emissions as a diesel unit. It has half of the operating cost compared to a diesel GPU, even with the cost of replacement batteries in the future.
In addition to the main battery bank (also called the service battery bank), a 26 volt portable starting unit model START PAC® 2326QC has been included in case the service battery has been run too low to be able to start the engine. This additional starting unit can be easily used by switching the starting unit to the output power cable with a switch on the control panel.
The unit is simple and easy to maneuver on the ramp for short distances and yet can be towed for longer distances.
Fully battery powered free running GPU, zero emission
Very large 1284 AH (Amp Hour) battery bank capacity for powering up the aircraft systems for extended periods of time
26 volt (charged to 27.6 volt) main battery bank (service battery) is capable of starting any engine but an additional state-of-the-art portable starting unit is also built in for back up engine starting (model 2326QC)
