TAILORED SOLUTIONS OFFERED BY DEFPOWER

MPDB: Main Power Distribution Box

A MPDB is the Power Distribution Box. This type of products are tailored to the programme and therefore no generic product exists as a one fits all. This is why DefPower has developed a deep understanding of their construction hence has the ability to design, develop and delivery a key in hand project.

    TVPD: Transient Voltage Protection Device

    Our engineering team tailors each TVPD to the specific transient‑protection requirements of the programme, enabling reliable mitigation of voltage spikes and surges across demanding military environments.

    PDU: Tailored logic

    DefPower PDUs solid-state architecture provide the user the ability to design the switching logic and protection profiles of the electronic architecture. This ability is critical as within a fleet of vehicles there are multiple variants all of which can use the same PDU but with different configuration.

     

    Piedrafita DefPower also provides an after-sales service, ensuring operational continuity and system reliability throughout the product life-cycle. 

      Components and equipment manufacturing

      In addition to developing its own products, DefPower offers manufacturing capabilities for third parties, producing electronic and electro-mechanical components that can be integrated into larger-scale systems.

      The components we manufacture include:

      • Technical boxes and enclosures
      • PCBs
      • Bus bars (electrical distribution bars)
      • Electrical wiring and harnesses
