Ocean Science Technology (OST) is pleased to announce the addition of Aegis Power Systems to our global supplier ecosystem. The U.S.-based designer and manufacturer specializes in rugged AC-DC, DC-DC, DC-AC and bidirectional power-conversion solutions, offering standard commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), modified-COTS and fully custom systems for demanding maritime applications.
With extensive experience in shipboard electrical integration, Aegis develops power electronics designed with consideration for stringent military and environmental requirements, including applicable portions of MIL-STD-1399, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-810 and MIL-STD-901. Its solutions support critical onboard equipment through scalable power outputs, parallel operation and redundant configurations, with flexible packaging and cooling options designed for challenging marine operating conditions.
Key products and capabilities include:
- Shipboard Power Supplies & Rectifiers: Rugged single-phase and three-phase AC-DC solutions, including the compact BW2901 300/600W naval power supply and NRA301 4.5kW rectifier, delivering regulated DC power for vessel communications, control and sensing equipment.
- Marine Electronics & Rackmount Power: Multi-output conversion systems such as the CWA003, providing approximately 2kW of power with N+1 redundancy for critical marine electronics racks.
- VPX Power Conversion: High-density VPX power cards, including SOSA-aligned and parallel-capable configurations, delivering up to 700W for naval mission computers, sensor processors and embedded computing architectures.
- Electric & Hybrid Marine Propulsion: Bidirectional power-conversion technology, including the EV7K5BDC 7.5kW DC-DC converter, enabling efficient energy transfer between 600 VDC and 28 VDC electrical systems.
- Subsea, ROV & Shore Power: Adaptable AC-DC and DC-DC power-conversion technology for underwater vehicles, tethered ROVs, seabed instruments, shore-power systems and battery charging applications.
- Custom Marine Power Engineering: Modular and application-specific designs with configurable electrical architectures, enclosures, connectors, monitoring capabilities, environmental protection and thermal-management options.
Aegis offers a versatile range of packaging configurations, including open-frame, rackmount, slide-in and sealed enclosures, alongside convection, forced-air, baseplate and liquid-cooling options. With all products manufactured in the United States, the company combines proven power-conversion technology with flexible engineering capabilities to address the requirements of both commercial marine and naval platforms.
Through its modular development approach, Aegis enables customers to adapt existing designs or commission fully customized solutions tailored to specific vessel, subsea or shore-based installations. From compact naval rectifiers and high-density VPX power cards to bidirectional converters for hybrid propulsion, its portfolio supports reliable power conversion across an extensive range of maritime systems.
