10 FLIGHT 25 JULY 1952 is vital with jets ... MUREX GROUND POWER UNITS have power to spare Nature's methods of starting are swift and sure—the nimble thrush, for example, always gets off to a flying start. The starting of a powerful jet aircraft, however, is not quite so simple. Here, a quick and reliable method of starting the engine is essential. Murex ground power units have been specially developed to provide instant starting for all types of air craft engines—piston, turbo-jet and turbo prop. The standard units will supply a peak current of over 1,400 amperes for engine starting periods and a current of 600 amperes continuously at 28 volts for servicing and pre- flight checks. Other capacities are available. Murex units are engine-driven and thus they eliminate the expense of heavy service ac cumulators. They are used by B.O.A.C., B.E.A., and other world famous airlines for the starting of all the latest types of aircraft. \ 7 MUREX V AIRCRAFT GROUND POWER UNITS MUREX WELDING PROCESSES LIMITED, WALTHAM CROSS, HERTS.
