ABS-580-E

The ABT-2045 is a reliable and low maintenance cost towable Aircraft Passenger Boarding Stairs designed for enplaning/deplaning passengers to/from an aircraft parked in the airport apron area. The stair assembly is mounted on a towable chassis and consists of a pivoted lower flight and a telescopic upper flight. The stair can be tilted and extended to achieve the best elevation in its working range. The unit has four hydraulically-operated vertical stabilizers to provide stability. Mechanical restraint devices are provided to prevent the stairs from lowering and retracting. A mechanical parking brake is automatically applied when the tow bar is lifted.

This self-propelled passengers stair provides access under the best conditions of safety and comfort for passengers of the narrow, medium, and wide-body aircraft with a door sill height between 2200 mm and 5800 mm. The ABS-580 is compliant with EC regulation with a standard platform width of 2800 mm. The stair is a telescopic stairway type and its height may be adjusted step-by-step allowing the passengers to embark and disembark in total comfort. The extruded-aluminum steps have a highly efficient non-slip surface offering additional safety, anodized handrails, and bright stairway lighting. All driving and aircraft approach operations are carried out from the open driving station (option driving cab), which provides perfect visibility of aircraft.
