Airport Ground Support Equipment
Continuous Flow Jet Engine Starting Units
Solon’s high quality and dependability lends itself to demanding applications such as airport ground support equipment including continuous flow jet engine starting units. These units are typically diesel powered screw compressors producing 100-400 lbs/min at up to 40 PSI. A modified 2PS switch is used to prevent an overpressure of supply ductwork by putting the compressor into bypass mode when the supply pressure exceeds 40 PSI.

Aircraft Ground Heating and Air Conditioning Units
OEM manufacturers of airport ground support equipment depend on Solon pressure switches to control compressor loading in mobile heat pump/air conditioners according to refrigerant gas pressure. Our dual contact pressure switches monitor and control suction gas pressure and discharge gas pressure constantly to ensure reliable operation.
