New Products and Features
TacticalPower™
line of deployable Inverters, Converters and UPS
ETI
now offers the most complete line of deployable power conditioning equipment
for use in the field by today's First Responders
as
well as personell in remote locations around the world. Developed for rapid
deployment, the TacticalPower product line includes DC to AC inverters,
DC-DC
converters, AC-AC electronics power conditioners, frequency converters,
UPS plus
portable JP-8/JP-5 fueled generator systems. Most of these units are integrated
into self contained transit cases providing protection for the equipments
as well as quick setup in
as little as two minutes operating from local ac sources as well as the dc from
military or emergency vehicles. More details can be found at the website
for
TacticalPower.
ExtremeUPS™
line of UPS and Power Conditioners for High and Low Temperature Environments
These
temperature hardened products are in service around the country in unconditioned
hostile environments. Most commercial UPS and
Power
Conditioning products are designed for controlled environments as found in
computer rooms. The best of these have operating ratings of 0ºC
to +40ºC (32ºF to +104ºF).
However, in uncontrolled environments such as outdoor applications, those
competing units typically fail due to temperature. Utilizing our certified
environmental
test chamber, ETI
has designed and qualified the ExtremeUPS line to operating temperatures
of -40ºC to +65ºC (-40ºF
to +149ºF).
Power
Conditioner/PDU/UPS
Series for FAA with Intelligent
SNMP and
Manual Controls
The
ETI0001-1473
is specifically designed for FAA rack systems
providing high reliability, direct replacement for previous
120 VAC power conditioning and power distribution equipment. The
ETI0001-1473 does
not require a separate PDU since the PDU functions are already integrated into
the power conditioning module. This saves rack space,
cabling and expense while improving overall reliability. The
unit also has redundant/conditioned DC outputs. The
ETI0001-1473 can
be easily upgraded to a UPS with the addition of its companion battery module.
The ETI0001-1473A
also provides backward compatibility
for the 208 VAC version. The ETI0001-1473B
version also provides backward compatibility
for the 208 VAC version, but without needing the separate
transformer module of the older equipment.

Not
the Least Expensive, But the Lowest Total Ownership Cost (TOC)
In making product evaluations
today, the wise decision makers base their
conclusions using Total Ownership
Cost or TOC. Considering all factors, ETI’s products have
the lowest TOC due to their overall performance and reliability. Besides the
initial product cost, areas to consider are Installation, Training, Maintenance,
Spares and Uptime. Products such as the ETI0001-N5 series integrate features
that reduce the overall space and installation costs. Defense services and support
contractors
are already experienced with ETI’s design and the products operation. Manpower
is a very significant
factor in TOC. Very high reliability means minimal maintenance, which results
in minimal manpower requirements. Once the ETI units are installed, they require
very little or no
preventative maintenance to keep them operational over the years. Very high reliability
means
a negligible spare parts requirement. If spares are desired, one set per site
would be more than adequate for years of operation. Very high reliability means
maximum operational uptime. Since failures usually interrupt operations at the
most crucial times and since UPS or PDU reliability impacts multiple downstream
loads,
minimizing failures or downtime is imperative. ETI has field proven very high
reliability and uptime. The Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) exceeds 250,000
hours and the
Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) is less than one half hour on most of ETI's products!
Rugged,
Not Ruggedized
Not all COTS Products are Created Equal
Most products sold in the
rugged market start out as desktop or consumer products (Commercial Off The
Shelf otherwise known as COTS).
These
vendors will attempt to "ruggedize" their product to compete in the
rugged market.
These ruggedized COTS products usually fail due to either temperature,
mechanical shock or vibration requirements since they were not designed to withstand
these extremes!
ETI's products start out
rugged whether for COTS or full MilSpec applications. They are designed to
and meet Military Environmental Standards.
ETI's products have successfully passed these tests numerous times including
Mil STDs 167, 810,
901 plus surviving the vehicle mounted endurance tests in the notorious Belgium
Block and
the explosive charges in the Barge tests.
