For over forty years, APC has been committed to being the leader and industry standard in the
design and manufacture of aircraft electrical systems. Today this goal and pledge has not
changed, neither has our commitment to serving our customers, the quality of our products, or
company ownership. In fact, while most other manufacturers are changing hands, consolidat-
ing and changing their manufacturing location, APC has continued to operate under the same
name, ownership and manufacturing base.
Far more advances in generator control unit design and performance are being made every
day. Even while industry practices and standards are rapidly changing, APC has welcomed
these challenges and continuously evolves along with industry trends in today's market. With
the most up-to-date technologies and product knowledge close at hand, APC has stepped into
the forefront of GCU design. APC's product line of Generator Control Units covers all industry
requirements.
APC designs and manufactures generator control units that are far superior in architecture and
performance. Our GCU's are designed for high reliability while the price to our customers is
extremely competitive. Adding to that, APC technical support engineers are always readily
available to assist our customers.
APC has long been recognized for its outstanding product achievements in the aircraft indus-
try. The successful performance of our generator control units in the field is the culmination of
our many tried and true design attributes, and advanced manufacturing techniques. Our GCU's
are manufactured at our ISO9001 certified facility and assembled with only the highest quali-
ty components. The workmanship that goes into our products is second to none.
The generator control unit incorporates all the control and protective functions required for a
single or multi-engine powered aircrafts 28 volt DC electric power system. APC generator con-
trol units are compact, lightweight and are designed to operate with our 28V D.C. starter-gen-
erators and other compatible machines manufactured to the requirements of MIL-G-6162.
Our generator control units can operate at ambient temperatures of between -55OC to +71OC
and at altitudes of up to 70,000 feet. APC's generator control units also contain many desir-
able features such as: self-cooling, lightweight, no scheduled maintenance or vibration isola-
tion is required. APC's patented “Torque Limiting” system can be integrated as an optional
addition to our high quality generator control units. Custom features can also be added to

our generator control units, if any customization is requested. APC Generator Control Units feature a
robust electronic and mechanical design to provide optimum functionality in the most demanding air-
craft application environments.
Complementing our extensive product line of Generator Control Units is the recent introduction of our
Digital Generator Control Units (DGCU); the GCSG 550 series. APC’s Digital GCU uses a highly inte-
grated, state-of-the-art microcontroller to implement the control and protective functions for improved
reliability, reduced parts count and lower manufacturing costs. Its design also makes use of bench-
mark components for increased drive capability for field excitation, and contactors control with lower
power dissipation and operating temperatures for improved component reliability. The digital GCU’s
also feature an automatic Built-in-Test with fault isolation to the LRU level for ease of maintenance
of the electrical power system.
At APC our motto is, "the Customer is the Focus of Everything We Do", and every effort is made to
place the customer's needs in the forefront. We continuously strive to meet and exceed our cus-
tomer's expectations. We do this through the most technologically-advanced product designs for
superior performing products, practicing lean manufacturing techniques to keep costs down and
passing on the savings to our customers. Our customer service staff is number one in the business,
and combined with the entire staff at APC, our business goals have been achieved overall in terms
of Quality, Price and Delivery. If you haven't already, call us toll-free at 1-877-4APCMFG, (1-877-
427-2634), or visit us on the web at www.apcmfg.com and discover first hand why APC continues
to be the most trusted OEM for aircraft electrical systems in the industry today.
