Product Information

Standard equipment with the British military and carried on board all frigates for turbine starting on all Lynx helicopters, the GPU 2000 pack has been proven in service for over 15 years.

Designed as a larger, more powerful pack than the GPU1500, where the starting of larger turbines with longer start cycles demands more amp/hr capacity, the GPU 2000 is a high performance pack designed for tough daily operations in harsh or remote environments.

Like other Powervamp GPUs it can also be coupled in parallel to double its capacity.A simple parallel yoke will instantly connect two GPU 2000 units to become the GPU 4000T (twin). The GPU has the same heavy-duty pull on/push off isolator as the GPU1500, with replaceable ‘on condition’ silver-plated contacts for maximum power transfer.

It is used also by logging companies and as an emergency starting pack on ALF 502 turbofans/BAe 146s. Ideal for off-shore operators needing to start a variety of heavier turbines, the pack is designed for rapid deployment and tough handling in extreme environments. There are no protrusions, keys or aperture covers to bend, break, lose or snag when handling or stowing. In use with US and British forces for many years, the GPU 2000 is unequalled in its clean lines, tough all stainless steel case, and 37 amp/hr capacity.
