Functional Description:
The JetCat P350-PRO-S is a single-shaft engine comprising a single-stage radial compressor, annular combustion chamber, single-stage axial turbine, and fixed exhaust nozzle. At the compressor intake, a brushless starter system is mounted. Intake air is compressed in the radial compressor stage, passes through the radial and axial diffuser into the combustion chamber, where it is mixed with vaporized fuel. The combustion gases expand through the axial turbine and exhaust nozzle, producing thrust. The rotor is mounted on two ball bearings lubricated by a fuel/oil mixture.
Control Options / Electrical Interface:
The JetCat-PRO engine series offers maximum integration and simplified installation. All peripheral systems required for operation are fully integrated beneath the front cowling.
JetCat P350-PRO-S Features & Functions:
- ECU (Electronic Control Unit): Fully programmable via detachable Ground Support Unit (GSU).
- Brushless starter & seal-free brushless fuel pump.
- Fuel & Kerosene-start solenoids integrated in the system.
- Post fuel filter downstream of the pump (last barrier filter).
- Barometric altitude/pressure sensor for automatic tuning at different altitudes.
- 4-pin Molex expansion connector (smoke pumps, fuel transfer pumps, or GSU).
- Optional bleed-air port for pressurizing the fuel system.
- Direct kerosene quick start via high-speed/low-current ignition system.
- In-air restart capability at high altitudes and flight speeds.
- Automatic engine cool down cycle after shutdown.
- Real-time fuel monitoring: consumed fuel, flow rate, burned fuel, and remaining fuel.
- Voltage-controlled ECU power On/Off – no external power switches required.
- Engine safety shutdown input via flight termination system – redundant safeguards stop the engine instantly while ECU remains powered.
- Continuous monitoring of currents, voltages, engine life parameters, and setpoints.
- Automatic fuel purge: fills/purges feed lines and stops once fuel reaches the engine.
- High-performance ceramic bearings for durability and smoother operation.
