Product Description
The 487-163 is an aircraft solenoid that remotely switches high-current circuits in aircraft electrical systems. This electromechanical contactor uses a low-current control signal to engage battery power to the starter motor, enabling remote starter activation from the flight deck. Built for intermittent duty cycles common in aviation applications, the solenoid routes current through its coil-actuated contacts.
Installation follows aircraft maintenance manual specifications and FAA AC 43.13-1B wiring guidance for electrical system integration.
