Luftfahrt-Bodengerät Guinault ASU GS280

The ASU-600 Series is a line of truck or trailer

mounted continuous flow jet engine starting units,

producing 180-300 ppm of airflow at up to 40 psig

pressure.

Major components include an air-cooled rotary screw

compressor, the latest emissions-compliant diesel

engine, and the proven ACE air regulating system.

Standard features include dual mode operation,

automatic throttle roll-back and an easy access

canopy mounted on a rugged, galvanized steel

chassis. These components and features combine to

produce the most versatile and cost efficient air start

units on the market today.

DESIGN FEATURES

? “Oil-free dry-screw” rotary compressor Precision cutting of compressor rotors eliminates the need for teflon or other coatings, which can fail due to differential expansion between rotors and casing.

? Integral oil cooler and fan

? Double seals and ventilated intermediate chambers prevent oil contamination of rotors.

? Easy to operate, with engine / compressor instrumentation on control panel.

? Torsional isolation between male compressor rotor and built-in multiplying gearbox.

? Fully Galvanized Frame and powder-coated panels for unprecedented corrosion resistance

? Integrated housing, bolts directly to engine flywheel eliminating alignment problems.

? Automatic throttle roll-back system, to decrease engine speed when full output is not

required, reducing noise and fuel consumption.

? Two-mode operation - Air packs and jet start modes have independently adjustable supply pressures.

? Aircraft safety systems

– designed to protect from overpressure or loss of pressure during starting procedures.

? Safety systems, designed to protect the unit from damage due to high temperature or a loss of oil pressure.

? Normal compressor overhaul at 25,000 operating hours.

? Wide doors allow unhampered access to all components for ease of routine maintenance.

? Outlet air temperature of 3900F (200oC) assures quick starts.

? Two each 3-1/2” I.D. outlets provided

? Properly rated chassis cab or fifth wheel steering trailer
