The Powervamp team setting up, ready to power Paris Air Show
A range of 45kVA & 90kVA frequency converters, as well as DC power supplies and air-conditioning units will be installed on site to provide silent power to the world’s largest airframe manufacturers including Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Pilatus, and Gulfstream.
“We have manufactured and extensively tested our latest generation 45kVA and 90kVA converters for exclusive use at the airshow…”
Richard Roller, joint MD, commented: “With temperatures recorded in excess of 31 degrees centigrade on the tarmac over the last week, my team have worked flawlessly in this punishing heat to ensure cable runs are specified correctly, products are double checked and all exhibitors receive a first class service from Powervamp. We have manufactured and extensively tested our latest generation 45kVA and 90kVA converters for exclusive use at the airshow and I’m feeling bullish about our involvement in this fantastic show.”
Over 2,115 international exhibitors and 139,000 trade visitors from all over the world are expected to attend the event, which spans several acres. Visitors to the show will also be able to watch aircraft performing daily flying displays, as well as being exhibited in the dedicated static park.
The event is the world’s largest and oldest air show and was established in 1909. Presidents, prime ministers and royalty are regular guests and one of the major purposes of the events is to demonstrate military and civilian aircraft to potential customers. Major aircraft sales contracts are often withheld, only to be announced by manufacturers during the show.
Powervamp will be selling all frequency converters used at the show at a heavily discounted price – please call +44 (0)1934 643000 or email sales@powervamp.com for further details.
