Explore high-stability solid-state ground power units configured for apron servicing, line maintenance, and MRO hangars across Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik, and Zadar. Precision-calibrated for narrow-body airliners, regional turboprops, and military avionics.
Croatia's strategic position in Southern Europe necessitates ground support equipment that can withstand Mediterranean maritime humidity along the Adriatic coast while meeting stringent European Union noise and emission reductions under the European Green Deal.
Airports situated along the Dalmatian coast experience high ambient summer temperatures exceeding 38°C combined with corrosive salt-mist atmospheres and cyclic gusts from the Bora winds. Our GPUs feature marine-grade tropicalized PCB conformal coatings, stainless-steel fasteners, and oversized heat sinks capable of full-rated continuous output without thermal de-rating during intensive summer tourist peak schedules.
Zagreb serves as the primary continental hub for heavy maintenance, avionics overhauls, and regional fleet retrofits. Static frequency converters installed here require ultra-low acoustic profiles (<65 dBA) and precise digital voltage drop compensation across subterranean 115V apron distribution pits, ensuring seamless compliance with both Airbus and Boeing avionics calibration protocols.
Regional airstrips and private business jet handling require compact, mobile, single-operator GPUs. Our rugged wheel-mounted 28.5V DC rectifiers with high short-duration cranking power (up to 2,000A) allow rapid turnarounds for turboprop commuters, search-and-rescue helicopters, and VIP private charters without demanding heavy electrical infrastructure modifications.
As Croatia deepens its integration with EU emissions directives and pushes for net-zero carbon airport certifications, procurement teams are rapidly retiring diesel-driven equipment in favor of solid-state electrification.
Croatian airports are actively participating in the Airport Carbon Accreditation (ACA) system. Connecting aircraft to high-efficiency stationary electric 400Hz converters eliminates auxiliary power unit (APU) kerosene consumption on the apron, lowering ground-level NOx emissions by 98% and cutting local fuel expenditures substantially during gate turnarounds.
Older motor-generator sets found in older Balkan facilities suffer from mechanical friction losses, brush degradation, and sluggish transient responses. Modern solid-state IGBT units deliver instant 100% step-load capacity, near-unity power factor (cos φ > 0.96), and require virtually zero periodic mechanical maintenance, yielding significant total cost of ownership (TCO) savings.
Modern terminal operations require automated GSE reporting. Fenvix integrates industrial Modbus RS485 and Ethernet interfaces, enabling real-time telemetry streaming into airport centralized maintenance databases to log ground-power kWh, voltage stability parameters, interlock safety triggers, and preventative maintenance alarms.
