DART Helicopter Services is pleased to announce that their subsidiary partner Geneva Aviation has received FAA, ANAC, Transport Canada and EASA approval for their 27 Amp, 28 to 12 Volt DC to DC Power Converter for the AS350/AS355, Bell 206 & 407, BO-105 series helicopters.

The Geneva Power Converter provides 12 to 14 VDC (Adjustable) to a variety of loads. The P174 provides clean regulated power to accessories without the potential for causing squelch issues in VHF Communications radios. The P174 is designed to drive all loads including processor based systems.

Features of the product: The P174 has an extremely low radiated noise floor allowing the use of multiple units without EMI emission levels that can cause squelch break symptoms in VHF communication radios. The unit's output voltage is adjustable by a control that is located on the side of the unit instead of inside the unit or in a place that requires the unit to be removed from the airframe for adjustment.

Product Benefits: With a 100 millisecond turn on rise time, the P174 Power Converter is specifically designed to work with processor based equipment that utilize switch mode type power supplies, thereby reducing false start ups and shortened lifespan in the power supplies of these types of equipment.
