The Intelligent Power Stabilizer, IPS, is an electronic power converter for critical
electrical equipment found in general aviation aircraft. The IPS system provides aircraft bus
voltage surge and sag protection for the connected electrical equipment. The IPS system
will operate over an input voltage range from 10 volts to 30 volts and provides a regulated
output voltage of 24 volts. The IPS system allows electronic equipment such as engine
monitors, EFIS and GPS's and radios to be operational before and during engine starting.
This important feature allows the pilot to load flight plan data into the aircraft GPS prior to
starting the engine, thereby saving fuel and operating expense. When used with aircraft
engine monitors it ensures the pilot can monitor critical engine operating parameters such
as oil pressure during the engine starting process.
The electronic power converter in the IPS system ensures the connected electronic
equipment is provided with a stabilized source of power even when the aircraft battery
voltage drops significantly. This is particularly important during engine starting or alternator
out conditions. IPS additionally provides surge protection by actively clamping the
regulated output voltage.
The IPS-24V may also be used as an up converter for electronic equipment requiring
24 volts from a standard 12 volt aircraft power bus.
The Intelligent Power Stabilizer system is suitable for use with equipment such as
Garmin GNS-430/wa, GNS-530/wa, G900X, G3X systems. Advanced Flight System EFIS,
Dynon EFIS, Grand Rapids EFIS, MGL EFIS, Tru-trak Autopilots. The IPS system may
also be used for operating 24 volt radios and electronics such as those utilized in the
Garmin G900x system and the GNS 430W-A / GNS-530W-A systems in 12 volt aircraft.
No other uses of the IPS system are permitted except for those identified in this
installation manual.
IPS must be installed using the current aircraft standards and practices.
