AMREL Rolls Out MFP300 Military Grade Fixed Power Supply

Posted by Ken Cheung in Components on Wednesday, January 28, 2009

AMREL/AMERICAN RELIANCE introduces the new ePower MFP300 Military Grade Fixed Power Supply at the IDGA Tactical Power Sources Summit in Washington DC. Continuing to innovate and diversify their technological capabilities in a customer-centric tradition, AMREL developed the MFP300 to address a ground based military application requiring an ultra-compact, powerful, clean and MIL-STD rugged 28Vdc/300W dc power supply.

AMREL engineered a blueprint to overcome three major technical limitations of existing solutions; convection-cooled with power dissipating components in an ultra-compact MIL-STD Rugged package, 440Hz PFC input while meeting MIL-STD 461E EMI/RFI standards and a precision-regulated dc output with less than 2mVrms of noise. Having exceeded the design targets, AMREL is now ready to launch another industry first – the silent, sealed and rugged C.O.T.S. MFP300.

AMREL’s Military-grade MFP300 effectively powers your dc devices in the harshest outdoor conditions. In a concentrated effort to deliver a versatile and reliable power source for military field applications, AMREL pushes the power envelope to enclose 300W in a 12″ X 7.6″ X 3.5″ package – 300 watts enclosed in 320 in3 of anodized hardware weighing just over 8lbs.

Without sacrificing performance, the conformal coated internal dc power engine is enclosed in a rain, dust, sleet and sand resistant package, sealed watertight and then extensively tested under temperature cycles from -40°C~70°C. This ensures quality performance even under severe ambient operating conditions. Electrically speaking, the MFP300 utilizes an innovative interleaved PFC design that takes auto-ranging 85~250Vac and 5~440Hz ac input and also can run off of 95~250Vdc. The dc-operable input and 440Hz operating frequency are unique features exclusive to AMREL’s MFP Series.

For applications with a 400Hz ac generator or a dc power source, simply plug in AMREL’s MFP300, and you can power devices on your aerial or ground vehicle with an adjustable dc voltage from 24~28Vdc @ 300W. The MFP300 generates a precision-regulated dc output with a ripple of 2mVrms, providing the ideal source for noise-sensitive devices. Designed according to MIL-STD 810F Shock and Vibration standards as well as MIL-STD 461E EMI/RFI standards, the MFP300 is a clean, tough and powerful dc source for your rugged application needs.
