APOJET R - ROTARY AIRCRAFT GROUND POWER SUPPLY

The APOJET R and APOJET R MOBILE meet all the requirements of a modern 400Hz aircraft ground power supply. It is a combination of high-performance power engineering and the most modern microelectronics. The APOJET R can be used in POU and centralised systems.

APOJET S - LATEST GENERATION OF STATIC AIRCRAFT GROUND POWER SUPPLY

This highly efficient version of the APOJET S, in conjunction with its high reliability, offers you long-term, trouble-free use and plenty of room for manoeuvre when deciding on the required specification. The APOJET S could be supplied with a pulsed transistorized input rectifier (optional) to ensure a sinusoidal input power demand, thereby minimizing distortion back into the mains supply (THDi * 5%).
