The Saphir 20 Auxiliary Power Unit has been designed to meet the on-board power requirements of the Super Puma multi-role helicopter.
With its excellent compactness-weight-p
ower ratio, the Saphir 20 makes the aircraft totally self-sufficient for starting and ground operation through the supply of 30 kVA of electrical power. It powers several systems through the helicopter's batteries in complete safety. ts reliability allows it to operate in severe conditions.
The electrical power delivered by the Saphir 20 can supply the following ground functions:
Air conditioning including cockpit heating
Power generation for:
starting the main engines
supplying equipment (standby, verification and maintenance phases)
Back-up electricity generation
Hydraulic power for flight controls
