- APS 200
The APS 200 is a stationary solid-state frequency converter designed by ITW GSE [ITW GSE] at their facility in Denmark [Danmark]. Developed from the engineering lineage of the AXA Power [AXA Power] brand, the system serves as a ground power unit that converts mains electricity into the stable 400 Hz current required by aircraft systems. It was designed to replace the need for on-board auxiliary power units, thereby reducing fuel consumption and noise at the airport gate. This equipment was primarily procured by airport operators, ground handling service providers, and maintenance facilities globally. It was frequently integrated into passenger boarding bridge installations or mounted at fixed apron positions to service a wide range of narrow-body and wide-body commercial aircraft. While widely deployed at major international hubs, the product has now been phased out of new production in favour of more recent solid-state technology from the same manufacturer. Buyers should treat the APS 200 as a legacy system, with procurement efforts focused on secondary market acquisitions or the sourcing of replacement components. The desk would verify the specific hardware revision of any unit, as internal modular designs changed over time. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the cooling systems and the status of the capacitor banks to ensure operational safety and voltage stability.
