The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has granted Hartzell Engine Tech supplemental type certificate (STC) approval for Plane-Power ALT-FLX alternator upgrades.
These alternator upgrades, previously approved by the FAA in the U.S., are applicable to a wide variety of piston-powered airplanes and helicopters.
Plane-Power ALT-FLX alternators offer high amperage output (up to 100A for 12V and 150A for 24V systems) with comparable weights to replaced units and include all necessary installation hardware.
