Overview
Shenling AC215 Fully Electric Pre-conditioned Air (PCA) Unit is designed primarily for Code C aircraft and is fully compatible with Codes A and B. The unit delivers fresh, conditioned air to parked aircraft to improve cabin comfort for passengers and crew and to support efficient turnaround operations.

Key Features

• Available in inverter and fixed-speed types
• Rapid cooling: reaches maximum cooling capacity in ~30 seconds and cools to 2°C within 3 minutes
• Cabin temperature stabilizes to 18–24°C in approximately 15 minutes
• High energy efficiency with COP of 2.2 (≈16% improvement vs. COP 1.9 reference)
• Intuitive LCD touchscreen controller with IoT platform integration for remote monitoring and diagnostics
• Operational across a wide ambient range: -40°C to 60°C
• Simplified maintenance: spacious internal layout enabling easy on-site access; most faults are minor and quick to repair

Performance & Operation

• Equipped with 4–6 compressors and multiple refrigerant circuits with dynamic load adjustment
• Delivers fresh, clean air to aircraft at boarding bridges and apron parking positions
• Electric operation as an alternative to APUs to reduce fuel consumption and operating costs

Control & Connectivity

• Built-in intelligent controller with LCD touchscreen and user-friendly interface
• IoT platform integration for remote real-time monitoring, firmware updates and diagnostics via laptop or mobile devices
• Automated calculation of aircraft 400Hz power supply and PCA running costs when integrated with the Shenling IoT platform
