The WEPPS system is modular and flexible in design. The core components of software, battery and transceivers work alongsidepowerboards, casing and connectors that are configured to meet the requirements of any aircraft type. In this way we preserve a key benefit of WEPPS, to be a ‘part-for-part’ replacement for existing battery packs.

There’s no need to reconfigureexisting wiring or systems. Simplyfit the WEPPS battery modules to the existing mountings and attach the diagnostics monitor wherever you want.

The system is a ‘part for part’replacement of conventional NiCdbattery/charger packs by lithiumprimary battery modules that need nocharging and no maintenance – ever.

WEPPS provides a truly ‘fit and forget’system, which removes the need forcurrent battery testing andmaintenance regimes and virtuallyeliminates through-life cost.

For over a decade, STG Aerospacehas been at the forefront of aviationsafety technology. Ourgroundbreaking solutions haverevolutionised emergency lightingwith proven benefits to the aircraftindustry – reducing operating costsand improving safety. Now, byapplying proven technology, we’ve

created a new generation power system foremergency lighting with an integratedwireless monitoring system.

Our Wireless Emergency Primary PowerSystem (WEPPS) is a ‘fit for life’ solution,which uses battery modules that need nocharging and no maintenance. Both FAA andEASA approved, WEPPS is set to become thebenchmark emergency power system of the future.

Why fit WEPPS? Current systems are timeconsuming and costly to maintain. WEPPShas been specifically developed to reduce thecosts associated with emergency lightingbatteries and remove the complications ofrechargeable battery systems. Comprising anetwork of primary battery modules and adiagnostic monitor, the system streamlinesflight dispatch procedures, eliminateshuman error and improves safety.

WEPPS has been designed as an easy‘swap-in’ replacement for existing batteries.The modules fit to the same mounting pointsand need no wiring reconfiguration. Thebatteries are approved, maintenance-free,primary batteries, which have indefinite shelflife and predictable performance. Thatmeans no requirement for conditioningspares and up to 80% less inventory costthan NiCd technology.

The emergency lights are controlled inexactly the same way, but WEPPS usesaircraft power for all functions except apower-out emergency, when battery poweris used. WEPPS also reduces the task of

mandatory daily checks to a singlepress of a button. This wirelesslyinterrogates the battery packs, controlcircuitry and lighting units to report thestatus of the whole system in under 10seconds – a simple, reliable and cost-effective solution to an otherwiselaborious task.
