e28 Generator

e28 Generator

The direct current 28 volt generator was specially design to work with a wide range of small aircraft and helicopters that need 28 V-DC to start their engines. The design, versatile, modern and powerful, makes the unit unique against competitors because it has been created by a service provider company incorporating the improvements for an easy operation and a good maintenance of the equipment.

Concept & Design.

The idea, design and its conception.

easier_simple1

The conception of the e28 was planned from all the experiences had with other ground support equipment for over 30 years; today, the evolution in technology and electronics offers equipment that are more compact, sealed and non-reparable, because of this, the design and engineering team at AP Manufacturing decided to focus in a more simplified mechanical and electronic process of voltage generation, offering this new design that offers a reliable voltage output with simple systems with automatic voltage built-up, it's exterior was designed for easy access to the unit with removable panels created in galvanize metal sheets; the control panel provides easy operation by four simple buttons and a graphic interface that can be understood by anyone.

Performance & Systems.

New Fittings.

perkins_motor

Engine:

Perkins 1104C-44G2, diesel engine, inline 4 cylinder, operating at 1800 RPM, naturally aspirated Battery system: 12 Volt DC

• Intake air restriction indication
• Selectable on-off engine pre-heater for cold weather start Protections Systems:
• Low oil pressure shutdown
• High coolant temperature shutdown

Quiet System:


quiet

Standard low noise operation < 80 dB.
• All the air is canalized through the radiator and exists the unit ti the top reducing engine noise
• Body enclosure covered with acoustic material that is water repellant, assuring no corrosion built-up
• Cross-flow cylinder head for reduced noise
