Overview

Product and Purpose

The Mil-Spec AC/DC Converter is TEDEG Defence's defence-grade AC-DC power conversion family for the military sector. Fully sealed and fanless architecture delivers silent, maintenance-free operation in environments exposed to rain, dust, vibration and shock. As the PowerGuard-A Series it covers the PowerGuard-A1000 (single-phase, 24 VDC / 1 kW) and PowerGuard-A 380 (three-phase, 28 VDC / 1–4 kW) models; a fanless, conduction-cooled, fully sealed aluminium enclosure, MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors, active power factor correction and MIL-STD-810 / MIL-STD-461 compliance are the family's common design principles.

FAQ

What is the Mil-Spec AC/DC Converter?+

A family of fully sealed, fanless AC-DC power converters for military vehicles and systems. As the PowerGuard-A Series it covers the PowerGuard-A1000 and the PowerGuard-A 380 models.

Which output voltages and power classes are available?+

The PowerGuard-A1000 delivers 24 VDC / 1 kW (single-phase 90–265 VAC, 45–420 Hz input). The PowerGuard-A 380 provides a 28 VDC nominal output (12–48 VDC configurable) in 1, 2, 3 or 4 kW options with 4 independent outputs (three-phase 360–440 VAC, 47–63 Hz input). Custom input/output configurations can be adapted to project requirements.

How is it cooled?+

By conduction; there is no fan. The fully sealed aluminium enclosure carries the heat away, so operation is silent and there is no fan to maintain. The protection class is IP67.

Which connectors and communication interfaces does it use?+

Keyed, EMI-protected MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors. Ethernet, CAN-Bus and RS-485 communication are available as options.

Where is it used?+

Turret electronics, communications and sensors on military vehicles; mobile command units; auxiliary power at radar antenna stations; auxiliary DC power on ships; and tactical communications such as radio, SATCOM and crypto systems.

How do I get a datasheet for a specific model?+
