Appendix A Active Rectifier Unit (ARU) All ITW GSE 4400 units can be equipped with a 28 VDC Active Rectifier Unit (ARU) output. Both 400 Hz & 28 VDC outputs can be used simultaneously. The total continuous amount of power from the unit is calculated as the sum of 400 Hz and 28 VDC output and cannot exceed the total 400 Hz power rating of the unit.
Page 166
OM-2247 / Operation and Maintenance Manual ITW GSE 4400 / 400 Hz. Tier 4F Generator Set Power Supply (PS1): The power to the ARU control board (A20) is isolated from the unit using a DC/DC power supply (PS1) which is rated at 24 VDC / 1 A. This module receives its power from the PC1 interface board, terminal X42.
