The RT-Backup is a rugged, lightweight, portable 28V DC power source and 28V DC voltage regulator. It can be used as a standalone 28V DC power supply for up to 30 minutes duration whilst powering a maximum of two Rotortuners products. It can also be used to maintain a 28V DC supply in the event of aircraft voltage fluctuations.
During aircraft operating and testing procedures it is possible that the aircraft 28V supply may fluctuate or become unavailable, particularly during engine tests. RT-Backup has been designed to automatically and seamlessly compensate for these aircraft voltage fluctuations to provide a stable and reliable power source by instantly switching to its internal batteries.
As a stand alone 28V DC supply, RT-Backup can be used to power Rotortuners without the need to connect large ground power units or run from the aircraft batteries.
RT-Backup incorporates lithium battery technology to achieve: a long in service life, excellent low temperature performance and a short recharging time.
The RT-Backup has a built-in charging circuitry operating from supply voltages of 11V DC to 32V DC. RT-Backup will automatically activate the charging circuit upon availability of a suitable power supply such as the aircraft 28V DC or Rotortuner AC Adaptor Pn.007920. LED displays on the front panel indicate the charging status and remaining battery capacity.
The unit is designed to be operated either standing vertically or laying down on its rear surface. Rubber feet are provided for both mounting options along with twin mounting lugs to restrain the unit using 30mm web strapping.
