Since 1966, Nova Electric has been supplying rugged UPS, DC-AC Inverters, Solid-State
Frequency Converters, and power supplies to serve the most demanding harsh
environment applications worldwide. Used from the depths of the sea in submarines to
outer space on the space shuttle and everywhere in between, Nova Electric equipment has
the quality design and robust build construction that make it the first choice of every major
defense prime contractor, all branches of the US Armed Forces, and US-Friendly Forces
worldwide!
Just a few of the many programs Nova Electric has participated in include:

Bombardier SC DASH-8Q200: The Bombardier Dash 8
or Q-Series, previously known as the de Havilland
Canada Dash 8 or DHC-8, is a series of twin-engined,
medium range, turboprop airliners. Introduced by de
Havilland Canada (DHC) in 1984, they are now
produced by Bombardier Aerospace. For a special joint
project between the US Army and MIT, Nova Electric
supplies a special Ultra Lightweight Series “wild
frequency input” UPS that will work over the entire wide
input frequency range of the aircraft, producing a stable,
pure sinewave fixed frequency output.

Desert Owl Radar: Desert Owl is an airborne
intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance system
that can simultaneously conduct measurement and
signature intelligence (MASINT) and imagery
intelligence (IMINT) missions in near all-weather
conditions. High-quality synthetic-aperture radar (SAR)
imagery and coherent change detection products are
collected through a long-range ultra-high frequency
(UHF) SAR (UHFSAR) array. The system consists of a
Beechcraft King Air A-200T (C-12 equivalent) fitted with
the PenRad 7 UHFSAR system and the L-3 MX-15
electro-optical/infra-red sensor. The Desert Owl system
uses a special ruggedized version of Nova Electric’s
pure sinewave RCGL-Series Inverter for power.

Persistent Ground Surveillance Systems: The PGSS
program is a tethered aerostat implementation,
developed in response to Joint Urgent Operational
Need (JUON) and Urgent Operational Need (UON)
requirements. The PGSS provides perimeter
defense, counter-improvised explosive device (C-
IED) detection, and force protection for forces
operating at Forward Operating Bases (FOB) in
austere mountainous environments. Certain sensors
on the PGSS are powered by Nova Electric’s
rugged, MIL-qualified OCGL-Series pure sinewave
inverters.
