Military-Grade 4kW/5kV 3-Phase to Single-Phase AC Changer
SynQor, Inc. announced the MAC-4000, a compact, military-grade 3-phase to single-phase ac changer. It has a shock-proof and weather-proof construction and offers true isolation between the input and output.
The company designed this 4kW/5kVac Phase/Frequency ac changer for the extreme environmental and demanding electrical conditions of military/aerospace applications.
The 1U-sized rack unit weighs 33lbs. The MAC-4000 incorporates the company's field-proven, high-efficiency designs, and rugged packaging technologies. It accepts a 3-phase 440Vrms ac input and converts it to a well-conditioned single-phase ac output using a two-stage isolated dc mid-bus topology.
Options include a selection of output voltage (115Vrms or 230Vrms), output frequency (50Hz, 60Hz or 400Hz) and an electronic circuit breaker on the ac output that allows glitch-free, fault-tolerant parallel operation of up to 32 units in single-phase, 3-phase, and split-phase configurations as well as (N+M) redundancy.
An optional floating output ground optional feature makes it suitable for air or sea crafts MIL-STD-1399-300B compliant applications that might require that feature.
Also, MAC-4000 can be equipped with an Ethernet-SNMP optional module that allows real-time remote system monitoring with trap/email.
In addition to aiding the change of ac output characteristics from an established ac input source, the MAC-4000 tackles the problem of unbalance loads on 3-phase systems in aircraft and ships. The MIL-STD-1399-300B requires the balancing of all phase currents to within ±5% for ships and ±3% for submarines. SynQor contends that achieving this high degree of the phase current balance with today's single-phase electronic loads is now easy its new ac changer.
The 3-phase MAC-4000 lets single-phase loads appear at the power source as clean, well behaved, nearly zero reactance balanced, and MIL STD 1399-300B compliant 3-phase load.
SynQor says the unique MAC-4000 product outperforms other industry solutions in terms of output power, efficiency, reliability, flexibility, low weight, and small size.
