- Product Description
High Altitude GPU | 400Hz Ground Power for Mountain Airports & Cold Climates
XI'AN JERRYSTAR INSTRUMENT CO., LTD introduces the High Altitude GPU, specifically engineered to maintain full performance at elevations above 3000 meters and in extreme cold conditions. Standard electrical equipment can lose cooling efficiency and output capacity at high altitudes; this unit compensates with oversized cooling systems, robust component selection, and cold-start features. It ensures reliable 400Hz power for aircraft operations at challenging airports like Quito, La Paz, or Lhasa, where reliable ground support is critical.

FAQ |
|---|
| Q1: Why do GPUs need special design for high altitude? |
| A: At high altitudes, air density decreases, reducing cooling efficiency. This can cause overheating and derating. Special oversized cooling and component selection maintain full power. |
| Q2: What is the maximum altitude this unit can operate at? |
| A: It is rated for full power operation up to 4000m (13,123 ft). For higher elevations, custom engineering is available. |
| Q3: How does it handle cold starts? |
| A: Internal thermostatically controlled heaters keep critical components above freezing. The unit can be started and operated reliably at temperatures down to -30°C. |
| Q4: Is it suitable for both narrow-body and wide-body aircraft? |
| A: Yes, with 90kVA and 120kVA models, it supports most commercial aircraft including A320, B737, A330, and B787 families. |
| Q5: What maintenance is required in high-altitude environments? |
| A: Regular cleaning of air filters is more critical due to dust and low air density. We provide a detailed maintenance schedule for altitude operations. |
