28V DC/ 400Hz Combi Static Frequency Converter

The 28V DC/ 400Hz Combi Static Frequency Converter is a compact, solid-state power conversion system designed to provide both regulated 28V DC and 115/200V AC power, 400Hz outputs from a standard 50Hz or 60Hz mains supply. It combines two essential aircraft ground power functions, DC and AC supply into a single, integrated unit for enhanced efficiency, reliability, and space savings.

Utilising advanced IGBT-based inverter technology, the 28V DC/ 400Hz Combi Static Frequency Converter delivers clean, stable, and low-distortion power suitable for aircraft, avionics testing, and maintenance operations. The unit ensures precise voltage and frequency control under varying load conditions, with built-in protection against overload, short circuit, over-voltage, and over-temperature.

The combi converter is available in fixed or mobile configurations, making it ideal for aircraft hangars, maintenance facilities, production lines, and flight line support. Its modular solid-state design ensures quiet operation, minimal maintenance, and high energy efficiency compared to traditional rotary converters.

  • Combined 28V DC and 115/200V AC, 400Hz outputs

  • Static (solid-state) design – no moving parts, low maintenance

  • Input: 3-phase, 50Hz or 60Hz mains power

  • High efficiency and low total harmonic distortion (THD)

  • Precise voltage and frequency regulation under varying loads

  • Digital control and monitoring with user-friendly interface

  • Comprehensive protection: overload, short-circuit, overtemperature

  • Compact, lightweight, and mobile-friendly configuration options

  • Suitable for aircraft ground power, avionics testing, and manufacturing
