Capable of starting any turbine or piston engine, lithium technology is the lightest available on the market, which makes this lithium GPU ideal to preserve payload when the unit is being carried out in the field.This patented START PAC® unit will provide a faster and cooler engine start than most ship’s aircraft batteries (the turbine is spooled to more revolutions per second before fuel is injected). Thus, turbine life will be extended because there is less stress on the starter and other engine components. This will preserve the aircraft’s costly batteries and help lower operating costs. Your airborne, on-board battery can then be saved for emergency use only.With separate removable batteries that can be changed in less than one minute (no tool necessary), this unique feature allows the START PAC®’s user to switch the batteries in the field without needing to return the unit to the shop or manufacturer for battery replacement; it’s virtually maintenance free. Additionally, certain aircraft will allow the ship’s generator to back charge a GPU. In this manner, the START PAC® unit can be recharged in the field indefinitely without an AC source.
The Li2000QC is coated in an environmentally responsible, low VOC powder coating, which protects it from wear, tear and extreme weather conditions. Additionally, an all-weather cover is also available as an option to protect this unit further from inclement weather and to gain the maximum performance and product life.This battery pack has been specifically designed for engine starting only. Note that it is not to be used as an aircraft battery charger. NOTE: When storing the START PAC® for more than 30 days, remove the battery box from the charging unit and keep separately.
