Instruction manual JetCat-PRO engines, 1.7 - V12.01V
Features
The JetCat-PRO engine provides the highest level of integration and maximum ease of installation.
All necessary peripheral systems necessary for the engines operation are fully integrated below the engines front
cowling.
There are no further external peripherals required like ECU/ Valves or igniter system.
All of this is integrated at the engines front end!
Therefore, besides the supply battery, the fuel tank, and some external control signals there are no further external
subsystems required!
The control signals are fed out on a pigtail cable terminated with a 15-pin SUB-D connector (other connector types
available on request).
The power supply is made via a second pigtail cable with a XT60 connector for direct battery connection. Other power
connector types possible upon request.
JetCat-PRO engine features:
Integrated Engine Components:
ECU (electronic control unit)
Electric starter motor or brushless starter/generator, depending on engine type
Brushless fuel pump
Fuel & Kerosene-start Solenoids
Fuel filter
Direct kerosene startup
Barometric altitude / pressure sensor
for automatic engine tuning upon operation altitude.
4-pin Molex expansion connector (e.g. for smoke pumps / fuel transfer pumps)
Optional Bleed-air port with integrated one-way valve (e.g. for pressurization of fuel system)
Air restart capability
Automatic engine cool down cycle after shutting down.
Direct quick start on kerosene
Reporting of fuel consumed
Engine power up via digital control signal
Engine safety shut down input, for instant engine shut down from flight termination system. This will kill
power to fuel pump and shut off safety valves. Whilst ECU can stay powered on (for continued data reporting
and or engine cool down).
Monitoring and reporting of all currents / voltages (e.g. supply voltage / current, pump driving voltage)
AutoRestart option for automatic engine restart on flameout due to fuel supply interruption (air bubble in
fuel)
High Performance ceramic bearings
