Who We Are

AC-DC & DC-DC Power Supply Specialists

Powerstax is a UK-based designer and manufacturer of power conversion equipment: DC-DC converters, thyristor-controlled transformer rectifiers (TR), configurable and modular switched mode power supplies (SMPS), bulk-power front ends and high voltage DC systems. Our engineering team supports customers from electrical specification and thermal modelling through to EMC qualification, volume production and lifetime field service — for defence, medical, green hydrogen, electrolysis, water treatment, carbon capture, electro-chlorination, cathodic protection, aerospace, automotive, fuel cell, and oil & gas programmes.

Experience that is documented

Three decades of installed base across electrolysis plants, naval platforms and imaging systems — with legacy units still supported by our repair and refurbishment teams.

In-house engineering authority

Magnetics design, digital control firmware, thermal simulation and EMC pre-compliance are all performed by Powerstax engineers, not outsourced.

Verifiable quality

ISO 9001 quality management, WEEE & RoHS compliance, documented factory and site acceptance testing (FAT/SAT) and full traceability of critical components.

Global supply & service

Sales and technical support from the UK and North America, with spares, calibration and on-site training available to keep plant uptime predictable.

Lifecycle Support

Our Services

Powerstax support does not end at shipment. Precision product and systems design, calibration, maintenance and repair, on-site training and factory / site acceptance testing keep your installed power hardware performing to specification. Refurbishment and long-term spares programmes extend asset life and protect plant availability.

Every intervention is documented, traceable and carried out by engineers who understand the original design intent.
