Product catalog summary
Overview: The ELIT FC400 series static frequency converters are designed for airfield applications, offering advanced technology, reliability, and ease of maintenance. They convert 50/60Hz mains voltage into a stabilized 400Hz output, suitable for aircraft systems.
Principles of Operation: The converters reduce size and weight compared to 50Hz or 60Hz systems, crucial for aircraft. They allow electrical system testing without running aircraft engines, using a diode rectifier and IGBT inverter to produce a 400Hz sinusoidal output with 3% distortion.
Key Features:
  • High efficiency (>93%)
  • 400Hz frequency accuracy (±0.01%)
  • Input power factor (>0.95)
  • Overload capability
  • Insulation transformer
  • LCD display and emergency power off
Options: Include drop line compensation, remote control, battery version (UPS), IP54 protection, and various communication interfaces (RS232, USB, RS485, SNMP).
Control Panel: Comprises an LCD display, LED indicators, and a keyboard for menu selection and parameter modification. The display provides detailed voltage, current, power, and energy metrics.
Interfaces: Dry contacts for remote signaling and optional communication modules (RS485, RS232, Profibus, etc.).
Monitoring Control System: ELITAVIO manages remote communication via physical or wireless connections, supporting infrastructure like LAN, internet, and mobile networks.
Custom Versions: Customizable for input/output voltage, temperature range, UPS version, and more, based on customer specifications.
