4.1 ELECTRICAL
PERFORMANCE
The TC2000 Series Static Converter converts an alternating current (AC) voltage input to a
regulated VDC output. See Table 4.1 specific output and input frequency.
Model Input Frequency Output
TC2000 115 VAC
360-800 Hz 28 VDC

TC2000 Series Electrical Performance
The unit is capable of providing 2000 watts to power a variety of aircraft accessories including
lights and onboard systems.
4.2 PROTECTIVE
FEATURES
4.2.1 Remote
On/Off
The TC2000 Series Static Converter incorporates a remote on/off feature that allows
the user to enable or disable the output of the unit. By providing a ground on the
appropriate pin (See Table 3.3) the user, via a remote mounted switch, can enable
the output of the unit. The unit can be similarly disabled by removing the ground
signal (open circuit) to the same pin.
4.2.2 Over-Temperature
The TC2000 Series Static Converter incorporates an internal temperature sensing
device that continually provides monitoring and feedback to the control circuits.
When the unit senses an internal condition that exceeds maximum temperature
ratings, the output is disabled and the internal cooling fans cease to operate. The
unit output will be enabled when the temperature returns to within acceptable limits.
This over-temperature reset occurs automatically without external intervention
required.
4.2.3 Short Circuit and Over-Current
The TC2000 Series Static Converter is capable of surviving a short circuit or over-
current event without permanent damage or effect to long-term reliability. Under
standard conditions, the unit can provide over its rated power output up to 2200
watts for over 5 minutes (until over-temperature shutdown occurs).
