Falcon® Electric and Defense Contractor CIS Secure Computing Produce Aircraft - Certified Uninterruptible Power System

CIS leads the way on highly secure communications and data transmission
and now offers Falcon’s ED product line with this certification

IRWINDALE, CA. – December 14, 2009 – Falcon Electric, Inc., (www.falconups.com) an award-winning manufacturer of on-line power conversion and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems for mission-critical military electronic applications, today announced the completion of a joint-development project with CIS Secure Computing of Dulles, Virginia. CIS specializes in TEMPEST and other secure communications solutions for the U.S. Government, NATO and other entities.

"CIS is constantly responding to the highly specialized needs of our customers. A recent project for the Department of Defense required a rugged rackmount UPS to protect sophisticated electronics housed inside an aircraft,” said John Turner, vice president and general manager of CIS Secure Computing. “The Falcon ED Series™ 2400VA rackmount unit met the project’s general specifications and through collaboration with Falcon’s engineering, we were able to further customize the product to meet the additional requirements that were unique to the project. Falcon's support has been superb throughout the entire process. With Falcon, we have found a solid technology partner with a similar customer-focused quality standard."

In this application, Falcon’s ED-2400VA was customized to meet aircraft crash safety, shock and vibration, power, and thermal requirements. These exacting standards, outlined in the DO-160E military specification developed by the Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics, focuses on the performance characteristics and environmental testing for airborne equipment.
