ITW GSE 2400 Combi Compact Unit

itwgse 2400 combi compact illustration

At most airports, a given parking position must accommodate a large variety of aircraft every day. When larger aircraft are docking in the morning, a 400 Hz source is needed. Later, a 28 V is often required.

If this scenario sounds familiar, the 2400 Compact Combi, formerly sold under the AXA Power and Hobart brand names, is your answer.

The combi unit is capable of delivering 400 Hz and regulated 28 VDC power, simultaneously and independently.

The 28 V Active Rectifier Unit (ARU), available as a standard option, delivers superior voltage quality at the aircraft plug without jeopardising the 400 Hz voltage.

The 2400 Compact Combi powers everything from narrow-body aircraft to turbo-prop planes, whenever the need arises.

Available in mobile and fixed version – see the ITW GSE 2400 brochure for more information.

Unique Voltage Quality at the Aircraft Plug

Plug & Play

Fixed 400 Hz installations often include a mix of long symmetrical and asymmetrical output cables, as well as various connection boxes, making it difficult to maintain the required voltage quality at the aircraft connector. This is exactly where ITW GSE’s Plug & Play voltage compensation system makes a difference. The Plug & Play system is based on true individual phase regulation combined with a predetermined model of the actual cable installation. As a result, the 2400 provides outstanding voltage quality at the connector, ensuring on-time departures and happy customers.

EcoGate – Powering aircraft, enabling electrification

The ITW GSE 2400 Compact GPU is designed to operate within EcoGate environments, delivering stable aircraft power while integrating seamlessly with other connected units.

Within an EcoGate setup, the 2400 GPU ensures aircraft demand always takes priority. When paired with EcoGate-enabled equipment such as the ITW GSE Power Share or DC Charger, available capacity can support additional electric loads — all within existing grid limits.

This creates a reliable and scalable platform for expanding electrified ground operations without compromising aircraft performance.

Utilize available capacity with ITW GSE Power Share

The ITW GSE 2400 Compact GPU is designed to handle peak aircraft loads. In daily operation, this often leaves available capacity that can be put to better use.

With ITW GSE Power Share, this capacity can be redistributed to charge eGPUs or power other AC equipment — without exceeding existing grid limits.

Power Share can be installed directly on a fixed 2400 GPU or connected independently to a GPU or PCA. Aircraft demand is always prioritized. When capacity is constrained, non-essential loads are temporarily disconnected and automatically restored once power becomes available.

Enable DC opportunity charging

The ITW GSE 2400 Compact GPU can be paired with the ITW GSE DC Charger to support high-voltage opportunity charging directly at the gate or parking stand.

By utilizing available capacity from the GPU, electric ground support equipment can be charged close to operations — all within existing grid limits. Aircraft demand always takes priority.

This integration enables practical, scalable fleet electrification without additional infrastructure investment.

FAQ:

What types of aircraft can the ITW GSE 2400 Compact GPU support?

The 2400 Compact GPU is designed to supply 400 Hz power to all aircraft types, including narrow- and wide-body commercial aircraft, business jets, and military platforms.

Its performance is fully compliant with ISO 6858 standards and aircraft power requirements.

What makes the 2400 Compact GPU a “plug & play” unit?

The 2400 features ITW GSE’s advanced Plug & Play system, which ensures the correct voltage at the aircraft plug regardless of load or cable length.

This reduces the risk of undervoltage-related faults and helps avoid costly delays.

How does the 2400 Compact GPU help reduce operating costs?

The unit’s solid-state design significantly reduces maintenance requirements, and its high energy efficiency helps lower electricity consumption.

Combined, these factors contribute to a reduced total cost of ownership over the unit’s lifecycle.

Can the 2400 GPU be integrated with other ITW GSE systems?

Yes. The 2400 is fully compatible with ITW GSE’s EcoGate system, allowing it to share power intelligently with PCAs and other connected equipment, optimizing gate power usage without overloading existing infrastructure.

What installation options are available for the 2400 GPU?

The unit supports a variety of configurations including stand-alone, bridge-mounted, and pit installations. For a more streamlined setup, you may also consider the ITW GSE 2400 Power Coil - a compact system that integrates power supply and cable management in a single enclosure.
