LPA Plane Power 28VDC socket to connect ground power supply to aircraft.
P28 28VDC Connector
Transformer Rectifier Unit (TRU)
The RBC5000 is designed to be extremely user friendly and offer excellent power to weight and size ratio. The RBC5000 is over powered; this means you can guarantee the power this unit offers. The RBC5000 provides up to 1600, 2000 or 3000 Peak Amps, it comes in an IP54 case and is capable of working at temperatures from -20°C to +50°C.
Combination Start and Continuous Units
Providing both battery powered start units and mains powered continuous power supply units. When plugged into the mains these units will supply up to 600 amps continuously (dependent on the model). When unplugged they will give up to 6000 peak amps (dependent on the model). The model number depicts the power of the unit.
Continuous Power Units
Designed to give continuous high quality DC power for crew training, aircraft servicing in the workshop, on the ramp or in the field. This continuous power supply is ideal for diagnostic work, pre flight checks or for continuous powering of equipment during operations, without draining the onboard aircraft batteries.
Switchable Start Units
Our high powered dual 12v/24v and 14v/28v start power units are designed to offer maximum power to weight ratio. With the Red Box ‘switch cable system’ these switchable start units can outlive similar products on the market by up to 100%. These units are available in either lead acid and lithium battery options.
Start Power Units
The Red Box range of jump start batteries and aircraft start units are the ideal solution for starting the majority of DC aircraft. They are designed to start aircraft from the very smallest up to the largest business jets. There are a range of voltages (12V, 24V, 26V and 28V) and power capacities available.
Plane Power Harness Lanyard
The Plane Power harness lanyard is designed to reduce the strain on the aircraft socket caused by the weight of the power cable harness.
PDS400 Connector with push button controls
The new Plane Power PDS400 aircraft connector with detachable front nose and push button controls. The 400 Hz connector is fully configurable to meet customer requirements.
PD400 Connector (400 Hz) detachable nose
400 Hz aircraft connector with detachable front nose.
28VDC Connectors
We are discontinuing the Type M1 and Type M3 28VDC connectors. These products will be replaced by the P28 connector.
We are offering customers a ‘last time buy’ on Type M1 and Type M3 connectors. We will accept orders for these products up to 30 September 2024. All orders accepted up until this date will be shipped at the earliest opportunity – we cannot accept orders with delayed delivery dates.
The P28 connector replaces the Type M1 and M3. It is now available to order – please click here for more information.
The P28 follows the same design philosophy as the Plane Power 400 Hz connectors; made from highly durable, chemically resistant, thermally stable polymers. It is IP67 rated without the need to use potting compound and takes a wide variety of composite or multi core cables. The P28 is a significantly better product than its predecessors and offers both value for money and operational reliability for end users.
