DART Helicopter Services (DHS) today announced a new distribution agreement with Red Box International.

DHS customers now have a source to all Red Box ground power and start units currently sold in North America.

"We are pleased to add Red Box units to our product catalog," said DHS President Jeff Shapiro. "This enables us to offer our customers a high quality, reliable range of ground support equipment."

Some of the new products include the Red Box RBSC, which provides continuous power compatible with 28V aircraft systems, high-quality, highly portable engine starting systems, and combination start and continuous portable ground power units specially designed for heavy duty starting aircraft.

This affiliation further establishes the goal of Red Box International to provide customers with competitively priced, high quality, and technically advanced products," said Adrian Jackson, special projects director for Red Box. "This is a great opportunity for both DHS and Red Box."

Red Box ground power start units are capable of operating in extreme temperatures, ranging from -40°F to +140°F. Tough and compact, they are air transportable and maintenance free. Continuous power units provide stable 50, 100, 150 or 200 amp output at 28.5V DC. They are non-hazardous for air transport and can operate in temperatures ranging from -4°F to +122°F. Finally, the combination start and continuous power units offer a high charge retention and long storage life with a fast recharge and no cycling.

"By adding products like the Red Box ground power units, DHS is able to further strengthen its position as a company able to offer a complete range of high quality products that enhance rotorcraft operations," Shapiro stated. Red Box joins over 20 other aftermarket product manufacturers DHS represents.
