The APU is a completely independent system, which operates on the ground and in flight and whose main function is to supply, if necessary, energy whose function is to supply both electrical and pneumatic energy; either as a support or as an emergency. With this power supply, the APU allows the start of main engines, supply of electrical power and air conditioning with the engines off, and supplies power during flight.
The APU laboratory performs maintenance, repair and testing of APUs for different types of aircraft.
The APU is a system in continuous evolution, so its future depends on its continuous improvement.
The use of the APU generates an increase in efficiency, through a considerable reduction in fuel consumption, which will also reduce pollutant emissions.
Through its services, AVCO generates an increase in system reliability, offering effective and quality maintenance for the operation of your equipment.
The laboratory offers maintenance and engineering services for engines, APUs, auxiliary power
generation systems and a wide range of associated accessories, including:
