PowerShield Galaxy Series 0.9-6kVA Rugged UPS | Australia
PowerShield Galaxy Series 0.9-6kVA Rugged UPS | Australia
PowerShield Galaxy Series Ultra Lightweight Ruggedised True Online UPS | 0.9-6 kVA
Designed and qualified for military, naval, aviation and harsh industrial applications. Supplied in Australia by Indigi Power & Cooling.
The Galaxy Series is not an adaptation of a commercial UPS. It is a purpose-built ruggedised true online UPS system engineered by Nova Electric - the US manufacturer that has supplied ruggedised AC power sources to all branches of the US Armed Forces, every major US defence prime contractor, and allied defence departments worldwide since 1966.
These are the UPS systems deployed aboard Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, General Dynamics, DRS and BAE platforms. Field-proven MTBF exceeds 100,000 hours.
