Coolspool ramp cart range on Powervamp.com
The Powervamp Coolspool range are designed to replace diesel GPUs (ground power units), or fixed and semi-mobile TRUs (transformer rectifier units), when an aircraft requires external power.
Where no mains power is present or noise curfews prohibit use of diesel GPUs, they are a highly efficient, low cost power source – operating at a fraction of the cost of a diesel GPU, yet able to deliver the same power and turbine starting output.
These large, new-generation, powerful, heavy-duty battery carts provide a combination of instant high amperage with pure DC wave form and full mobility, low initial investment and extremely low operating costs.
Their zero noise and zero carbon footprint are the way forward for regional airlines. Direct cost comparisons between diesel and Coolspool show savings enabling some operators to amortise the Coolspool GPU in less than 6 months.
Over one hundred companies entered the category before being reduced to the final three – Richard Roller took to the stage to receive the award on behalf of Powervamp and everyone involved with the Coolspool product.
