Advanced Conversion Technology (ACT) is proud to be a leader in military-grade ground vehicle power supplies. Applying our field-proven expertise, we develop power solutions that conform to MIL-STD-1275 standards and that can be relied on to perform in tough, military land environments. Our budget friendly, off-the-shelf solutions deliver reliable power in tracked, wheeled, and other types of military ground vehicles.
Developing reliable power supplies for military ground vehicles and equipment presents various challenges that require precision-engineered solutions. Ground vehicles are frequently deployed in dusty, humid, or sandy conditions—anticipating these environmental concerns is essential in the design of any power supply. Hardware must also be able to withstand the bumps and shocks associated with travel in rough terrain.
In the most demanding military applications, reliable power is a necessity. At Advanced Conversion Technology (ACT), we specialize in sophisticated, technical solutions that can handle the input requirements defined by MIL-STD-1275. Our ground vehicle power supply products can be mounted in a ruggedized frame to protect from damage. We also offer hermetically-sealed modules that keep out dust particles and keep your equipment safe at wide temperature ranges or humidity levels.
MIL-STD-1275 power supply standards outline requirements for any military ground vehicle power supply. Military vehicles employ a nominal 28 V power supply system and much of MIL-STD-1275 requires ensuring these systems are able to handle transient spikes and surges. Contact us for more information and detailed technical requirements for MIL-STD-1275 power supply standards.
At ACT, we offer both off-the-shelf and modifiable MIL-STD-1275-compliant power supplies. Our DC-DC products, as well as our AC-DC products, include power solutions with multiple outputs, EMI shielding, and other advanced features that make them ideal for powering communications, engine control, guidance, and other sensitive systems. Our power supplies for ground equipment can operate off of a +12 V vehicle battery, providing easy integration and use in a wide variety of land applications. Some other key features of our solutions include:
Our forced air and natural convection-cooled products can be utilized in temperatures ranging from
-40°C to +71°C. Rugged housings and complex packaging options further add to the versatility of our ground vehicle power supplies. Our products are ideal for any application in which resistance to vibration, shock, and other environmental/physical stresses is required.
No matter what your specific project needs are, ACT can accommodate them. Our premier, custom power solutions also meet the needs for powering this demanding domain in the following ways:
Land-based power supply units face harsher military environmental conditions and must be ruggedized for reliable performance. In addition to meeting MIL-STD-1275 standards, ground power supplies also need to meet MIL-STD-461 standards for EMC to ensure that critical onboard electronics do not interfere with and are not disrupted by nearby navigation systems or radars. However, like airborne and marine power supply systems, military power supplies for ground applications must meet tight regulations and high-quality standards.
This is where our team at ACT comes in. We have high standards for quality and have our quality system certified to AS9100. With our vertically integrated manufacturing and test capabilities coupled with our expert engineering team, we can design and build you a power solution that will perform and protect in the most demanding domains.
