General Product Information
Product Description
The SynQor MPC-1500 Series is an advanced technology military-grade Power Conditioner (MPC)
that uses highly efficient power electronic circuitry to achieve a high power level in a low-profile,
low-weight, rack-mountable package. It provides voltage and frequency conditioning, electrical
isolation, and power flow smoothing between the power inputs and its power outputs.
A communication/control port is available to permit monitoring and control by a host computer
system. Front panel LEDs and an audible alarm provide information on the status of the MPC.
The MPC-1500 Series products can draw power from an AC input having a wide range of voltage
and frequency levels, or from an optional 28 V nominal DC input. The AC input has priority over
the DC input. The MPC provides up to 1500 VA and 1250 W of AC output power at 115 Vac. The
pure sine wave AC output voltage can drive any non-linear load with a crest factor up to 2.5, and
any load power factor from 0.0 to 1.0. There are two optional DC outputs at various voltage and
power levels available. Please note: The total AC plus DC output power is limited to 1250 W.
The electronic circuitry within the MPC-1500 Series products is designed, qualified and screened
according to SynQor’s MIL-COTS Standards. It complies with the requirements of MIL-STD-704F,
MIL-STD-1399-300B, MIL-STD-1275D and MIL-STD-461F, as well as IEC-EN61000 specifications
for world-wide commercial utility applications.
The MPC-1500 Series products are designed and manufactured to withstand the harsh environments
and use encountered in military applications. The electronic circuitry is contained in a sealed
chamber constructed from a die-cast aluminum chassis that is weather-proof and shock-proof.
Redundant, water-proof fans on the rear panel draw cooling air over the heat-sink fins below the
sealed chamber. Military-grade circular connectors are used, and optional attached connector
covers are available for when the cables are not attached. The MPC-1500 Series products comply
with a wide range of testing according to MIL-STD-810G.
The MPC-1500 Series is a 1U high unit that comes in two form factors. The MPC-1500-1U form
factor is 21.6” deep, and weighs 24 lbs. The MPC-1500-1S “Shallow Rack” form factor is 14.8”
deep, and weighs 22 lbs. Both form factors have identical electrical performance. The SynQor
MPC-1500 Series products are designed and manufactured in the U.S.A..
