ITW GSE 7400 eGPU

Airports all over the world are beginning to think greener. And more and more airports are interested in reducing their environmental impact. Often the world’s largest airports are located next to major cities that are growing in line with global trends, meaning cities and airports are coming into ever-closer contact. This leads to stricter requirements in terms of the emissions local governments can and will accept.
To support the green airports and a better working environment for the airport staff, we are introducing the ITW GSE 7400 eGPU GPU. A battery powered 400 Hz unit that will help airports reduce their carbon foot print, replacing their diesel powered GPUs by clean eGPUs.

Better Working Environment

Make a giant leap forward by replacing your diesel GPUs with ITW GSE 7400 eGPUs. In that way, you can reduce your CO₂ emissions by 90% and the NO_x emissions completely at the place of work.

CO₂ EMISSIONS
Diesel GPUs have high fuel consumption since they need to be constantly running at high engine speeds to generate the 400 Hz power an aircraft requires. This means high CO2 emissions and high noise levels.
The ITW GSE 7400 GPU is a zero-emission alternative that uses battery power instead of conventional diesel, meaning it is practically clean and silent.

NO_x EMISSIONS
Diesel GPUs have a high level of NOX emissions.
The harmful health effects hereof are becoming increasingly better understood. The eGPU emits no NOX into its operating environment, so it can contribute significantly to a cleaner and safer working environment for your employees.

Save more than $120,000

The 7400 GPU is a unique product with a green approach. Thanks to its lack of moving parts vulnerable to wear and tear, maintenance costs are almost non-existent, meaning overall operating costs stay low. With current electricity prices and maintenance costs, the eGPU is a clear winner in comparison to a diesel GPU.

Cumulative opex – diesel engine GPU vs eGPU

The graph shows the cumulative operating costs of a diesel GPU and an eGPU used 5½ hours/day during the year. Lower electricity and maintenance costs make the eGPU a winner in comparison. Provide your fuel and electricity prices for a customized calculation of YOUR savings.

Extreme Flexibility

The ITW GSE 7400 battery powered eGPU is in a class of its own and comes without compromise. It is autonomous and can easily be transported to wherever it is needed. The environmentally friendly 7400 eGPU provides the same outstanding, well-proven qualities of other ITW GSE solid-state GPUs, including precise and clean output voltage at the aircraft plug, and individual phase regulation of each output phase. It can do 5-6 turn-arounds in case of a narrow-body aircraft before it needs recharging. And it can be recharged from any nearby 50/60Hz socket. In addition, the modular design means the unit can be equipped with the number of battery packs needed to suit actual power requirements. Finally, if one battery pack fails, others take over to ensure you never run out of power

At the input, the ITW GSE 7400 eGPU is powered by 4 pieces of fourth generation Nissan Leaf battery packs. Each pack has a capacity of 40 kWh. This is the exactly same type of battery found in all Nissan-branded electric vehicles. Since 2010, over 500,000 of these vehicles have been sold, with more than 90,000 in 2017 alone.

WELL-PROVEN GPU
At the output side of the eGPU is ITW GSE’s well-proven 2400 solid-state converter. This combination of two tried and true technologies has created the rock-solid eGPU. The GPU is, of course, equipped with our patented Plug & Play system and can therefore deliver a unique voltage at the aircraft plug.

Downloads and Updates

The software-based control system means your 7400 eGPU can be updated and given additional capabilities in the future, simply by transferring new software from a USB stick/flash drive. Service log files and maintenance data can also be transferred the same way for analysis and to help ensure more efficient back-office procedures and more effective facility management.
