Features of the 2400 Power Coil

    

  • Quick & easy installation
  • Innovative design
  • High reliability
  • Space saving
  • Less stress on the PBB
  • Optimum voltage quality at the aircraft plug
  • No cable adjustment needed (Plug & Play)
  • One complete, tested and adjusted system

It's the perfect design for gates where glass passenger boarding bridges (PBB) are used, as it makes the bridge and apron look neat and tidy.

Innovative solution based on experience

The 2400 Power Coil offers a highly reliable and robust design including a front plate in stainless steel. The Power Coil has an improved cable guidance system that ensures easy and smooth cable handling. As standard, the Power Coil comes with 24 m or 28 M cable (useable length). The cable is rolled completely into the housing after use to provide optimal protection of the cable. The rolling automatically stops when the plug head reaches the lower edge of the Power Coil, leaving the apron free.

Supply all aircraft incl. PF1

With the 2400 Power Coil, you get all the performance you know from our popular 2400 Compact GPU – including its superior voltage quality and 400% overload at output as standard. The unit is equipped with ITW GSE's smart user interface, and its software can be updated via a USB device. The unit also includes standard overload capabilities for all aircraft types – including those, such as the B787, A350 and A380, that require Power Factor 1 (PF1).

Need a new cable for your Power Coil?

The instructional video to your left shows how to replace the cable.

 

We have developed a 400 Hz Cable with a unique safety device that prevents the aircraft from moving away from the boarding bridge as long as the 400 Hz system is connected to the aircraft.

400Hz Aircraft Cable Assembly

EcoGate – Integrated aircraft power for connected gates

The ITW GSE 2400 Power Coil is designed to operate within EcoGate deployments, combining 400 Hz aircraft power and cable management in a single enclosure.

Within an EcoGate setup, it delivers stable aircraft power while integrating seamlessly with other EcoGate-enabled units such as the ITW GSE Power Share and 3500 PCA. Aircraft demand always takes priority, while available capacity can be coordinated across connected equipment — all within existing grid limits.

By integrating power delivery and cable handling in one compact solution, the 2400 Power Coil supports efficient electrification and a scalable gate layout.

Exploit surplus capacity with ITW GSE Power Share

Most GPUs are designed to deliver more power than required for aircraft operation. Similarly, PCAs often operate with significant surplus capacity for much of the time — leaving available energy unused.

The ITW GSE Power Share allows you to allocate this available capacity from your 2400 Power Coil to charge eGPUs or power other AC equipment — without upgrading existing infrastructure.

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

Integrate DC charging at the gate

The ITW GSE 2400 Power Coil can be combined with the ITW GSE DC Charger to support opportunity charging within an EcoGate deployment.

Using available capacity from the integrated 90 kVA GPU, electric ground support equipment can be charged at the point of operation — while aircraft power remains prioritized and total load stays within grid limits.

This supports flexible electrification in a compact gate layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ITW GSE 2400 Power Coil and how is it different from a standard GPU setup?

The 2400 Power Coil combines a 90 kVA solid-state Ground Power Unit and a motorized cable coil in one compact enclosure. Unlike traditional solutions that require separate GPU and cable handling systems, the Power Coil arrives pre-assembled and factory-tested - making it faster to install, easier to maintain, and ideal for under-PBB (Passenger Boarding Bridge) applications.

Which types of aircraft can the Power Coil support?

It is designed to power all aircraft types - including wide-body aircraft like the Boeing 787, Airbus A350, and A380 which require Power Factor 1 (PF1). The unit has superior voltage quality and supports 400% overload at output, ensuring high reliability for demanding operations.

How does the Power Coil improve apron safety and aesthetics?

The cable retracts fully into the housing when not in use, keeping the apron clear and minimizing trip hazards. Its clean and compact design - particularly suited for glass bridges - maintains a visually tidy gate area while reducing clutter compared to traditional setups.

Can the Power Coil integrate with ITW GSE’s EcoGate system?

Yes. The 2400 Power Coil is fully compatible with EcoGate, ITW GSE’s intelligent gate power management system. EcoGate dynamically allocates power across gate equipment, helping you maximize existing infrastructure without the need for costly upgrades.

Is the Power Coil available with additional features like Power Share or remote charging support?

Absolutely. With the optional Power Share, you can allocate surplus power from the Power Coil to charge eGPUs or other AC-powered equipment, optimizing every kilowatt of gate power.
