Headline News
New Products and Features
 Tactical
UPS® and Diplomatic Power® UPS product lines expanded
By customer request, ETI has expanded the ever popular Tactical UPS and
Diplomatic Power global UPS product lines to include a wider range of output power and
output voltages. These portable units are compact and light enough to travel with you to any destination in the world. Their global auto-ranging AC input feature means that they can use any local grid or generator power source to produce pure sinewave power that matches the specific voltage and frequency requirements of your computer, network and/or communications needs.
 In addition, the Tactical UPS series has true global input capability by offering models with the ability to use 12 or 24 VDC
as an input power source (i.e. from vehicles, aircraft, etc). This gives the user the ability to use either a local AC or DC power source as input. The
built-in battery module as provides seamless power to your equipment if either of these sources are
interrupted, allowing for the source to be restored or for an orderly shutdown.
The output power
range has been expanded to as low as 250 VA in briefcase models to as high as 2000 VA in high-impact, molded cases the size of an airline carry-on with wheels and popup handle.
Each model is available with either of two output voltage ranges. The CONUS models offer an output selection of 100, 110 or
120 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz. The OCONUS models offer an output selection of 200, 220 or 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz.

Military Power® and Rugged Power™ UPS products now available in 3-Phase versions
ETI has introduced 3-phase capability for both the Mil-Spec and rugged COTS UPS offerings. For example, the ETI0001-2205
Tactical
Shelter Systems™ solutions
introduced
ETI has teamed with
Utilis USA to offer complete systems solutions for deployable
shelters. Utilis manufactures a series of rapidly deployable tactical soft-wall shelters that
incorporate a patented state-of-the-art folding-frame design. The basic shelters can
be fully erected by two people in less than 3-minutes. By combining ETI's
portable power sources, power conditioning, power distribution, office systems
and shelter HVAC, either company can offer a total solution to deployable
shelter requirements. A new web site,
TacticalShelterSystems.com,
has been setup to provide information on the individual components as well as
the various systems solutions available.
Tactical Solar®
lines further expanded with addition of Tactical Solar Shelters®
 ETI has further expanded its very popular
Tactical Solar
product
line, now offering the most complete line of deployable solar power
equipment available anywhere. Originally developed for use by today's Warfighter overseas,
it equally well suited for First Responders and other Emergency Services here in the Homeland. Developed for rapid
deployment, Tactical Solar products include both fixed and flexible
solar panels, solar charge controllers, battery modules and solar UPS systems.
Units can be used to charge batteries in computers and communications gear
and/or to operate the equipment directly. AC output
voltages are also available. Most of these units are integrated into self contained
briefcases and transit cases providing protection for the equipments as well as quick setup in
as little as two minutes. Besides operating from solar panels, the same systems
can use either DC power from
military or emergency vehicles or any AC source available. The new Tactical Solar Shelters offer up to 1280
watts of solar power for each 10' x 20' shelter section. This solar covering
also serves to further insulate the shelter reducing power required for heating/cooling
of the shelter. More details can be found at
Tactical Shelter
Systems or Tactical Solar.
Tactical Wind
Turbines®
add more green energy to ETI lineup
ETI has also introduced its line of lighter-weight, quieter, Tactical Wind
Turbines®
which are designed to either operate stand-alone or work with the
Tactical Solar products as a hybrid system. Available in a variety of sizes, the 5-blade turbine shown
to the right can generate 1200
watts, yet only weighs 50 pounds. The telescoping mast is constructed of carbon
fiber making it strong yet light weight. A single intelligent controller
converts either or both wind power and solar power to useful power sources. The
entire system can be easily setup by two people in a few minutes. More details can be found at
the websites for
Tactical Shelter Systems or
Tactical Wind
Turbines.
Tactical ECU™ line expanded for deployable shelter systems
With wide temperature ranges impacting the operation and performance of
computers and communications gear in the field, ETI now offers cooling and
heating solutions. Available in portable transit cases or in fixed mount units
(trailer/vehicle mount), these rugged Environmental Control Units (ECU) provide
air conditioning that allows use of COTS gear in harsh environments. Besides
flexibility and high reliability, these ECUs also offer optional intelligent
features of local and/or remote monitoring and control of the ECU units and the
user's supported equipment. User intelligent interfaces include SNMP and HTTP.
More details can be found at the website for
Tactical ECU.

Rugged, Not Ruggedized
(Subtitled, "Not all COTS Products are Created Equal")
Most products sold in the rugged market start out as desktop or consumer
products (Commercial Off The Shelf otherwise known as COTS). These
vendors will attempt to "ruggedize" their product to compete in the
rugged market.
These ruggedized COTS products usually fail due to either temperature, mechanical shock or vibration
requirements since they were not designed to withstand these extremes!
ETI's products start out rugged whether for COTS or full MilSpec
applications. They are designed to and meet Military Environmental Standards. ETI's
products have successfully passed these tests numerous times including Mil STDs 167-1, 810,
901D plus surviving the vehicle mounted endurance tests in the notorious Belgium Block and
the explosive charges in the Barge tests.
Not
the Least Expensive, But the Lowest Total Ownership Cost (TOC)
In making product evaluations today, the wise decision makers base their
conclusions using Total Ownership Cost or TOC. Considering all factors,
ETI products have
the lowest TOC due to their overall performance and reliability. Besides the
initial product cost, areas to consider are Installation, Training, Maintenance,
Spares and Uptime. Products such as the ETI0001-N5 series integrate features
that reduce the overall space and installation costs. Defense services and support contractors
are already experienced with ETI designs and the products' operation. Manpower
is a very significant factor in TOC. Very high reliability means minimal
maintenance, which results in minimal manpower requirements. Once the ETI units
are installed, they require very little or no preventative maintenance to keep
them operational over the years. Very high reliability means a negligible spare
parts requirement. If spares are desired, one set per site would be more than
adequate for years of operation. Very high reliability means maximum operational
uptime. Since failures usually interrupt operations at the most crucial times
and since UPS or PDU reliability impacts multiple downstream loads, minimizing
failures or downtime is imperative. ETI has field proven very high reliability
and uptime. The Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) exceeds 250,000 hours and the
Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) is less than one half hour on most ETI products!
