Fuel Pumps
AeroControlex manufactures aerospace fuel pumps for a wide array of applications — from fuel transfer pumps, APU fuel feed pumps, fuel boost pumps, dual stage fuel metering pumps, and in-tank fuel boost pumps. These aerospace fuel pumps are compatible with all types of fuel for aircraft and ground turbine applications. Our fuel pump products are either pad driven or motor driven (AC, VDC, BLDC options available).
Typical specification include:
Applications
AeroControlex has been supplying aerospace fuel pumps to the business jet, regional jet, and helicopter markets. Our pumps are typically run from a 28 VDC power system and supply pressurized fuel directly to an engine or auxiliary power unit (APU). These pumps act as boost functions or transfer functions depending on the application. AeroControlex aerospace fuel pumps are fully qualified to the strictest Aerospace requirements. These credentials allow our customers the flexibility in selecting a cost effective, low risk solution.
