Case Study: Aerospace & Defense – Manufacturing Automation

Project Overview

An aerospace manufacturer selected MPD’s MPO-60S AC/DC power supply for reliable 24V power in advanced manufacturing and control systems.

An aerospace manufacturer needed a compact, highly reliable AC/DC power supply for advanced production and control equipment. Their team required a solution that could deliver stable 24V output, high isolation, and long-term durability—while operating across global line voltages and tight thermal conditions.

Key Design Goals:

  • Universal 90–264 VAC input for worldwide operation
  • 24 VDC output with tight voltage regulation
  • 3,000 VAC isolation for equipment safety
  • Compact open-frame footprint for space-constrained cabinets
  • Certified to EN 60950 with low leakage current and robust overload protection

To address these requirements, the engineering team selected the MPO-60S series from MicroPower Direct. With 60W output power, global safety approvals, and >130,000 hours MTBF, the MPO-60S series ensured reliable, efficient operation in demanding aerospace manufacturing environments. Features like short-circuit and overload protection, free air convection cooling, and a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +70°C) supported long-term, trouble-free use—even under harsh conditions.

By integrating the MPO-60S, the manufacturer delivered safe, consistent power for critical automation and control systems, supporting quality and efficiency across their global production network.
