GE Rockford designs and manufactures a variety of custom designed electronic windshield temperature controllers for the aerospace industry.

GE windshield temperature controllers contain proportional pulse-width modulation control which provides 0% to 100% power in 10 incremental steps. These controllers typically operate with input voltages of 115 VAC Line-to-Neutral, 400 HZ single-phase power or 200 VAC Line-to-Line, 400 HZ single-phase power. -

Output power of GE AC controllers currently range from 500 watts to 4 kilowatts.

Our latest windshield heat controller designs utilize a complex programmable logic device (CPLD) rather than a microprocessor based design. In addition to this CPLD technology, GE windshield heat controllers also include Built-In-Test (BIT) features that are performed on a power up, manually initiated and continuous monitoring basis. This BIT capability includes fault detection and annunciation capabilities that isolate fault conditions in the windshield heat system to the controller, windshield sensor and windshield heater element level.
