Engineered in our Guangdong manufacturing facility to withstand rigorous flight-line use, volatile AC utility swings, and high-ambient tropical humidity. Explore our field-tested line maintenance and hangar power systems.
Operating aircraft ground electrical infrastructure in Myanmar presents distinct operational hurdles that mass-market commercial rectifiers fail to withstand. Below is an engineering overview of our localized system hardening.
Airfields in peripheral locations (such as Sittwe, Myitkyina, and Dawei) often rely on high-impedance national grid segments or localized diesel-generator banks. These sources frequently exhibit line sags dropping below 340V AC and line transients surpassing 460V AC. Our 28.5V GPU series integrates ultra-wide voltage pre-stabilization window circuitry (380V ±20%), active power factor correction (PFC ≥ 0.95), and multi-stage metal-oxide varistor (MOV) surge suppression to safeguard sensitive onboard avionics from upstream dirty power.
Coastal airfields like Kawthaung and Pathein experience relative humidity levels up to 98% combined with atmospheric salt particles and monsoonal condensation. Our export models utilize conformal coatings (MIL-I-46058C approved) across all printed circuit boards (PCBs). High-current copper busbars undergo nickel or tin electroplating to stop dendritic migration and galvanic oxidation. Cabinet designs incorporate IP54 compartmentalized cooling tunnels that isolate switching semiconductors from airborne dust and moisture.
Turboprop workhorses ubiquitous in Myanmar—such as ATR 72-600, Cessna Grand Caravan 208B, and Mil Mi-17 helicopters—demand massive current surges up to 1500A–2000A during the initial cranking phase. Conventional power supplies trigger current foldback or thermal shutdown under these loads. Fenvix solid-state GPUs utilize high-pulse IGBT architectures featuring a three-stage programmable current-limiting curve: allowing 400% inrush for 1.5 seconds, 250% for 15 seconds, and continuous rated power, ensuring clean, stall-free turbine spooling.

Insightful forecasting for procurement managers, civil aviation authorities, and charter fleet operators modernizing ground support fleets.
Rising jet fuel and diesel logistics costs across regional Myanmar air hubs have accelerated the decommission of maintenance-intensive diesel GPUs. Ramp managers are prioritizing electric solid-state units that draw from line power or centralized air terminal banks, driving down hour-by-hour operational expenses by up to 74%.
With domestic carriers pursuing code-shares and aligning maintenance with ICAO and FAA guidelines, avionics protection has become paramount. Modern glass-cockpit retrofits in regional fleets cannot tolerate voltage spikes during external power changeovers. Fenvix units offer ISO 6858-compliant interlock circuits to instantly decouple power upon any voltage anomaly.
MRO facilities at Yangon International Airport increasingly handle mixed-fleet schedules requiring both 28.5V DC for regional turboprops/helicopters and 115V 400Hz AC for larger narrowbody airliners (Airbus A320, Boeing 737). Procuring integrated or complementary GPU hardware from a single verified factory minimizes technician training overhead and standardizes spare parts pipelines.
Founded in 2013, Fenvix eliminates trading broker margins by combining in-house sheet-metal fabrication, copper busbar machining, assembly, and automated burn-in testing under one roof.
Unlike assembly shops relying on outsourced enclosures, our 3,000m² factory features in-house plate shearing, CNC punching, milling, and tapping machines. This mechanical autonomy ensures robust, heavy-gauge steel GPU chassis designed to withstand tarmac impacts and rough handling by ramp personnel.
Fenvix operations adhere strictly to an ISO 9001 certified Quality Management System. Our factory premises and production capacities have undergone rigorous on-site verification by TÜV Rheinland. Selected power models carry full CE, RoHS, LVD, and EMC conformity for global aviation compliance.
We believe in technical transparency. Burmese clients interface directly with experienced power electronics engineers rather than general salespeople. We support single-unit prototype requirements (No MOQ) and provide full schematics, PCB component documentation, and step-by-step video commissioning support.
Key logistical, technical, and commercial considerations addressed directly by our export compliance desk.
Yes. Every GPU built for export to Southeast Asia incorporates an industrial-grade input stage configured for nominal 380V/400V AC 3-phase, but designed to operate seamlessly across an operational tolerance of 304V to 456V AC. Advanced micro-controller monitoring cuts output within 20 milliseconds if a lethal surge occurs, isolating the aircraft electrical bus completely.
We regularly export via FOB Guangzhou/Shenzhen, CIF Yangon Port (maritime sea-freight for heavy GPU enclosures), or DDP via established overland cross-border freight routes (Ruili-Muse or through Thailand border economic zones). We handle export packaging in reinforced seaworthy wooden crates conforming to ISPM-15 fumigation standards.
All Fenvix units feature modular component topologies. Sub-assemblies (such as IGBT firing boards, drive modules, and display units) can be hot-swapped in the field without requiring full chassis teardowns. We maintain rapid-dispatch spare parts packs and provide bilingual technical schematics, wiring codes, and live engineer video guidance.
We accommodate traditional Telegraphic Transfers (T/T), confirmed Letters of Credit (L/C at sight), and cross-border settlements in major international currencies including USD, EUR, and direct CNY clearing mechanisms to facilitate seamless financial execution for local buyers.
Absolutely. While nominal output is set to 28.5V DC pursuant to MIL-STD-704 and NATO STANAG standards, our front-panel digital encoder and internal control cards permit continuous adjustment between 24.0V DC and 32.0V DC. This ensures exact compensation for voltage drops along extended 15-meter or 20-meter heavy-gauge aircraft output cables.
Yes. As a genuine manufacturing plant with dedicated R&D engineering divisions, our Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) is strictly 1 unit. We customize cable lengths, connector standards (such as NATO 3-pin phenolic or rubberized plugs), chassis paint codes, and auxiliary AC outlet receptacles without demanding batch volume premiums.
