A320 Landing Gear Control Interface Unit (LGCIU)

Airbus and Crane have developed the Enhanced Landing Gear Control Interface Unit (LGCIU) PN 80-178-001-88012 which will soon replace the current unit.

 

  • Offers reduced weight, higher reliability, and enhanced BITE Functionality with LGCIU’s inter-communication and improved consumption and power handling.Landing Gear Control Interface Unit

  • Will be introduced on A320 aircraft final assembly line after successful in-service evaluation and will become the only standard in 2010. The LGCIU is fully interchangeable and intermixable with all previous LGCIU standards (* except on bogie-type MLG aircraft [8 MLG wheels]).

  • When also embodied with Airbus MOD 39303, introducing an ARINC 429 link between the 2 LGCIU positions, Crane’s LGCIU improved BITE functionality is enabled (functionality not available with current LGCIUs).
