Powertec Supplies India Pvt Ltd has manufactured a 50kW AC/DC Rectifier Unit for a specialised customer application, demonstrating its capabilities in high-capacity power conversion and customised power system manufacturing for demanding requirements. The unit operates on a 415V AC, three-phase input and delivers 28V DC at up to 1,720A, with a total rated capacity of 50kW. The system highlights the level of power conversion and high-current capability required for specialised platforms where electrical architectures may need to support vehicle auxiliary systems, mission electronics and other critical support subsystems simultaneously.
A 25kW power system can already support substantial electrical loads in a specialised defence platform, depending on the platform’s electrical architecture and configuration. The 50kW unit manufactured by Powertec provides twice that rated capacity. At 28V DC, its ability to deliver up to 1,720A demonstrates the high-current capability required for applications with significant electrical demands.
The significance of the system extends beyond its 50kW rating. The unit has been manufactured to convert and manage a substantial level of electrical power according to the specific requirements of the intended customer application. The rectifier is not being presented as a proprietary Powertec product. Instead, its manufacture demonstrates the company’s ability to undertake customer-specific power conversion and customised power system projects. Powertec works across AC-DC switched-mode power supplies (SMPS), DC-DC converters and specialised power systems for demanding and mission-critical applications.
“The increasing complexity of mission-critical applications is creating a need for power systems that are not only reliable but also precisely engineered around specific operational requirements. At Powertec, we continue to strengthen our capabilities in power conversion and customised power system manufacturing to address these requirements,” said Sagar Brahmbhatt, Director, Powertec Supplies India Pvt. Ltd.
He added, “The manufacture of this 50kW-class system demonstrates our ability to work on high-capacity and specialised power requirements while maintaining the flexibility needed for customised designs. From AC-DC conversion and DC-DC converters to complete application-specific power systems, our focus is on developing and manufacturing solutions that support critical equipment and demanding operations.”
Specialised power system projects require engineering around factors such as power capacity, voltage, current and operating conditions rather than simply applying a standard product configuration. Powertec applies its power conversion and manufacturing expertise to translate customer requirements into customised systems. The company directs the manufacturing of custom-built, military-grade power solutions, specialising in AC-DC SMPS and DC-DC converters, while also developing systems for mission-critical equipment and stringent operational requirements.
Powertec will showcase the 50kW AC/DC Rectifier Unit at AEDEX + AIRPORT Expo 2026, being held from September 10–12, 2026, at Yashobhoomi, IICC, Dwarka, New Delhi. The exhibition will provide industry stakeholders an opportunity to view the system and engage with Powertec on its specialised power conversion and customised power manufacturing capabilities.
