FAQ |
|---|
| Q1: What are the main benefits of a bridge-mounted GPU versus a mobile one? |
| A: It offers permanent, reliable power at the gate with no daily positioning required, reduces apron vehicle traffic, eliminates fuel/hydraulic leaks risk, and provides a cleaner, more organized workspace. |
| Q2: What infrastructure is needed for installation? |
| A: Installation requires a pre-designated space under the passenger boarding bridge, a suitable 3-phase AC power feed, and proper mounting supports. Detailed site requirements are provided in our pre-installation guide. |
| Q3: How is the cable delivered to the aircraft? |
| A: The unit includes a motorized cable reel. An operator uses a control pendant or buttons on the aircraft connector to automatically lower the cable to the aircraft and retract it after use. |
| Q4: Can this GPU power all types of commercial aircraft? |
| A: Yes, the power ratings (30-180kVA) cover the requirements of regional jets up to wide-body aircraft like the Boeing 777 or Airbus A350, when used in conjunction with the aircraft's own power management. |
| Q5: Who typically installs the Bridge Mounted 400Hz GPU? |
| A: Installation is a coordinated effort, often involving the GPU manufacturer, the boarding bridge manufacturer, the airport's technical team, and certified electrical contractors to ensure proper integration and safety. |
