FAQ |
|---|
| Q1: Which specific Boeing 737 models does this GPU support? |
| A: This 90kVA unit supports all Boeing 737 variants, including the 737-300, -400, -500 (Classic), 737-600, -700, -800, -900 (Next Generation), and the 737 MAX series (MAX 7, 8, 9, 10). |
| Q2: Why is 90kVA the standard rating for 737 aircraft? |
| A: The 90kVA rating has been established by Boeing and the aviation industry as the standard ground power requirement to safely power all electrical systems, including avionics, cabin lighting, galley, and air conditioning, during ground operations. |
| Q3: Can this unit be used for other narrow-body aircraft like the Airbus A320? |
| A: While specifically optimized for the 737, the 90kVA output is also compatible with the A320 family. However, for mixed fleets, we recommend our 120kVA model for additional flexibility. |
| Q4: What is the typical installation time for a fixed pit unit? |
| A: With proper site preparation, installation and commissioning typically require 3-4 days with our technical supervision. |
| Q5: Is remote monitoring available for fleet management? |
| A: Yes, with optional communication interfaces (RS485/Modbus, Ethernet), the unit can be integrated into airport or airline ground support management systems. |
