GRP-20PM

Function in the KURS MP-2 system

Receives and processes glidepath beacon signals used to determine vertical displacement from the landing glidepath. Glidepath radio channel of each KURS MP-2 half-set; tuning is remote and paired with the selected KRP-200P course frequency. Serviceability is evaluated in the installed signal chain, including power, antenna feeders, inputs, outputs and connected indications.

Exact electrical tolerances, test points and adjustment procedures must be taken from the product passport and approved maintenance documentation. Applying power or connecting a unit by analogy with a similar model can damage the equipment and produce misleading test results.

Interaction with related units

The closest functional connections for GRP-20PM are KRP-200P, UN-2P and VO-010. Each unit performs a separate task. Their presentation as related products identifies a shared system context and does not mean that they are substitutes for one another.

Before replacement, technicians compare the markings of all connected units, connector pinning, monoblock configuration and the wiring diagram for the particular aircraft. A replacement unit may be supplied without cables, shock mount, mating connectors or other installation accessories.

Installation and aircraft context

Two receivers in the complete system, one in each monoblock/half-set. KURS MP-2 installations are documented on the Antonov An-26 and Ilyushin Il-76. Application of GRP-20PM to another aircraft type, series or modification must be confirmed against its equipment list and approved technical documentation.

Incoming inspection normally includes verification of the data plate and examination of the housing, connectors, mounting points and seals. Functional testing and adjustment require the approved procedure and suitable test equipment; appearance alone cannot confirm serviceability.

Identification and ordering GRP-20PM

An enquiry should state the complete designation, quantity, required condition, delivery scope and required documentation. A clear data-plate photograph and details of the removed unit help distinguish versions and avoid selection from an abbreviated name. Other system components are listed in Electronic Control Units.
