FLYTEK GPU – 28 VDC GPU

FlyTek 28 VDC GPUs (Ground Power Units)  provide continuous output power for a wide range of aircraft. Through innovative research and development, FlyTek 28 VDC GPUs provide continuous DC power to both military and civilian aircraft that are on the ground to start the engine, the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) of the aircraft, as well as for the onboard power supply. The units are available in mobile or fixed configurations, suitable for either hangar or ramp use.
