SPMAR9200 PowerSafe Evolution

Spektrum’s AR9200 PowerSafe™ Evolution offers the ultimate solution for powering high-current draw radio systems. In aircraft with multiple high-current draw servos (e.g. giant-scale aircraft, jets, etc.), the AR9200 PowerSafe Evolution can provide peak current of up to 20 amps (Each battery input is regulated independently to 5.9 volts, and each regulator is capable of handling 10 amps (2 x 10 A)) and offers true dual battery redundancy and a fail-on soft switch for the ultimate in reliability.

Receiver

By locating three remote receivers throughout the aircraft, the RF link can be optimized in even the most demanding aircraft installations that have significant conductive materials like carbon, stainless steel bypass tubes, tuned exhausts, etc.

Features

Specifications
 
  • True dual battery redundancy—each battery is isolated and if one
    fails/shorts the other takes over.
  • Utilises three remote receivers for the ultimate RF link in
    demanding applications.
  • Up to 20 amps peak current handling capability
  • SensorSwitch fails-on if the switch is damaged or disconnected
  • SensorSwitch indicates battery condition.
  • Minimum voltage memory indicates any voltage drops that occur
    during flight.
  • Dual Regulated output voltage (5.9V)
  • Large heat sink area for high performance.
  • Three voltage indicator LED’s per battery input and three battery
    voltage indicator LED’s on the SensorSwitch.
  • Support for three battery types: LiPo, NiMH, and LiFePo.
  • Suppression of any servo feedback currents that might occur.
  • Two types of failsafe - Smartsafe (throttle only) and preset failsafe
    (all servos)
  • QuickConnect - if a power interruption (brownout) occurs the
    system reconnects in less than 1/2 second
  • Flight Log compatible
  • Heavy-duty dual battery inputs with MPX connectors. (Adapters to
    EC3 connectors and Deans Ultra connectors are available
    separately.)
  • Compatible with all Spektrum™ and JR® full range radio and
    module systems
  • 2048 resolution

The PowerSafe Evolution main unit is not a receiver.

The PowerSafe Evolution’s main unit is a power distribution centre that provides up to 20-amps current to power your system. Through extensive testing our engineers discovered that mounting the receiver in the typical location in sophisticated aircraft (an aircraft with many high-current draw servos and/or conductive materials), at the end of the servo and battery leads, is not the optimum location to provide the clearest RF signal. The AR9200 PowerSafe Evolution uses three remotely mounted receivers that can be optimally placed in your aircraft providing the best possible RF link in the most demanding conditions.
