The brand new Arnhem Space Centre
Located in far north Northern Territory, is a ground-breaking launch facility that has been built for national, international, and commercial space agencies. It is the only commercially owned and run multi-launch site in the world and Boasts an array of launch options, highly beneficial environmental factors, and comprehensive infrastructure.
It is about to celebrate the first launch from the facility later this month when NASA launches their BBIX rocket from the ASC site. Southern Electronic Services, through our valued long-term customer Thytec Australia, has supplied power transformers to the site, to assist the NASA teams convert Australia’s 240v mains down to 110v to allow them to use their US equipment. Being mission critical equipment, NASA chose Thytec and Southern Electronic Services for their power supply solutions for the reliability, conservative design and robust design benefits of our products.
SES Transformers supplied:
- a 3-phase 415v / 208v @ 56A (20kVA) isolation transformer
