ACU-2000

Aircraft Heating Unit

The ACU-2000 Series trailer-mounted aircraft heating units offer a range of models that deliver from 500,000 up to 1,000,000 Btu/Hr of clean pressurised, heated air to all aircraft or facilities equipped with a standard 8-inch (203mm) connector. The unit provides filtered air to maintain passenger comfort during aircraft turnover or to maintain the cabin temperature during layovers to prevent damage to any onboard plumbing systems.

The gasoline engine supplies the thermal and mechanical energy required to operate the heating system. In the 500 KBtu/Hr model the inlet air is heated by the blower heat of compression and then passes through a heat exchanger that recovers energy from the engine coolant circuit. In the 750 KBtu/Hr models an additional heat exchanger recovers energy from the engine exhaust.

For the most severe environments, the 1,000,000 Btu/Hr model combines these approaches with electric resistance heating elements powered by an external 90 KVA GPU connection (GPU not provided). The recovery and use of engine waste heat make the ACU-2000 a very energy efficient unit.
