True Blue TC280 AC to DC Converter | 280 Watts

The True Blue Power TC280 AC-to-DC Converter is designed to supply reliable 28 VDC power from an aircraft’s 115 VAC electrical system. Rated at 280 watts, the TC280 provides sufficient output to support a wide range of onboard electronic equipment, including cockpit avionics, cabin power modules, and in-seat power applications.

The TC280 features a fan-less, convection-cooled design that runs cool and eliminates the need for forced-air cooling. This design improves reliability while allowing flexible installation locations, including the cabin floor, cabin sidewall, or outside the pressure vessel.

High conversion efficiency of approximately 88% helps reduce heat generation and electrical load on the aircraft system. The unit includes comprehensive protection features such as input transient protection, overload and short-circuit protection, and internal temperature monitoring. A remote on/off control input allows the converter to be managed by aircraft power logic or switches.

Designed and manufactured in Wichita, Kansas, USA, the TC280 is engineered specifically for aircraft environments and is intended for installation in accordance with applicable aircraft approval data and True Blue Power installation instructions.
