Supporting Predator UAV Ground Systems
The Firebird is an intelligence gathering aircraft designed by Northrop Grumman’s Scaled Composites design shop which can be flown remotely or by a pilot. The Firebird is designed so that the aircraft is able to carry up to four modules of spy equipment simultaneously, on a separate system from that needed to control the plane, so that equipment can be easily swapped in and out. The aircraft has the ability to simultaneously view infrared imagery, gather real time high definition video, use radar and eavesdrop on communications.
ETI’s systems are in use supporting ground based electronics for the pilots of this program.
When the Tactical Power Plant (TPP) is configured to be fed from an external power grid, and that power is lost, the TPP will revert to UPS power and an alarm will sound signaling the end user to start the generator while the load continues to operate without interruption from the UPS batteries.
When the external power returns, and remains stable for two minutes, the TPP automatically transitions to the grid source and will shut down the generator to conserve fuel. The same scenario is true for when operating from a 28 VDC source.
