Transportability

All Dytecna GPUs can handle severe 4G air transport shock loads. The engine and main alternator are mounted on heavy duty rubber isolation mounts with overload stops. The fuel tank, muffler, radiator, control cabinet and battery compartment are similarly located with shock-loading in mind. Dytecna's GPU's have tie-downs for both road and cargo-bay transport to Military Standard MIL-STD-209H. It has integral forklift tubes for safe, easy loading by forklift.

Off-road use

Off road GPU For off-road towing to remote locations the All-terrain GPU is built for moving on very poor roads. High ground clearance (400mm/16") coupled with a short wheel base mean that it can be safely towed by all-terrain vehicles in the bush. Heavy duty 4 wheel electronic brakes and an integral actuator, large diameter heavy duty tyres, precise axle constraints to maintain the steering geometry and an extreme duty suspension with gas/oil shock absorbers also make the unit easy to tow. The electronic brakes can be driven with either 12V or 24V without having to select which voltage is being used. It is also equipped with helicopter airlift slinging provisions to MIL-STD-209H

For on the road towing the GPU can be towed at speeds of up to 110 kmr/hr (65 mph), and can be fitted with towing lights.
