The Mobile Data Power, model MDP-25, is a DC UPS that solves the common problem of lengthy reboot sequences, system crash, data and hard drive corruption in mobile computer work stations due to a low voltage and loss of power as a result of intermittent or poor vehicle battery condition. In addition, the MDP provides a low voltage output warning signal to terminals (such as Motorola® MW 800 series work stations) allowing orderly automatic shutdown of the powered device, protecting data and preventing hard drive corruption.
Utilizing a high speed sensor circuit, when primary vehicle voltage drops below a critical point, the internal 9AH battery is switched on-line in milli-seconds, assuring no interruption to the powered device(s). The MDP-25 has an internal 3 step, temperature compensated charger that maintains its reserve battery at full charge, ready to go on-line when a fault or degradation of primary vehicle battery occurs. This functionality assures continued operation of mobile computers under a variety of adverse vehicle battery conditions.
Housed in a rugged aluminum case and heavy duty mounting plate, the unit is designed for installation in emergency vehicles, service and other utility vehicles that require a steady source of voltage for mobile computers, work stations, and electronics.
Protects mobile computers against system crash, lengthy reboot sequences, and loss of data due to:
- Voltage dip during engine cranking
- Voltage drop and decay due to loading high power accessories, and aging batteries
- Voltage loss due to cycling of master disconnect switch and battery failure.
Provides supplemental voltage in milli-seconds to mobile data devices when low vehicle battery is sensed.
- Immediately augments power to electronics when needed and fully powers electronics if critical low voltage condition persists.
Built-in Multi-Stage filter provides clean power required by mobile electronics
- Eliminates noise and interference
- Transient protection prevents damage to sensitive circuitry due to voltage spikes
Provides output warning signals to mobile computers (such as Motorola® MW 800 series work stations)
- Initiates low voltage shut down sequence in mobile computer, protecting data and hard drive.
- Alerts when system is operating on battery back-up
Internal 3 stage, temperature compensated charger maintains back-up battery in fully charge stand-by state.
