Power-Pac™ Spoilers

Power-Pac Spoilers improve descent rate by reducing lift and increasing drag at the touch of a button. They may be deployed at any speed up to Vne yielding faster descent rates without the need for a major and sudden power change - reducing the potential for engine shock-cooling or loss of cabin pressure. Hydraulic actuated, Power-Pac™ spoilers are fail-safe with auto retract, and they are operational in icing conditions. Deployment is even under all air loads. System weight is under 20 lbs. Working pressure is at 950 psi.
Time to deploy is 2 to 4 seconds. Electrical requirement is 24 volts DC @ 9.5 Amps.
Available for: T310R, 340, 340A, 414, 414A, 402C, 421B and 421C.
