Call AS customer service with your serial number and they can give you a build sheet with the mfr and model number of the major components in your trailer. I was able to get one for my 2008.

Happy trails,
Mike

With 30 amp service, this is correct. You will have the WFCO 8955 PEC Power center or 9855 if you have 50 amp service.

From the early 2000s through 2017 it used to be the Parallax 7455 deck mount and then the 7355 and finally the 8355 power centers. All can be upgraded to modern technology including AGM and Lithium charging profiles.

Before that it was Magnetek, Litton, Newmark, Univolt, Triad-Utrad etc for our vintage friends.

For 50 amp service new models you will get the WFCO 9855 deck mount and the 8930/50 distribution panel.

I can answer any question you might have about the current or older converters Airstream has used and whether or not it is appropriate for the type of camping you do or plan to do. They do act different under varying conditions and battery types.
