Naval

ELINSA has more than 45 years of experience in the manufacture of electrical panels and power electronics in one of the most demanding sectors in terms of quality and reliability standards, that of naval defence or navy and also for the civil navy.

Electrical Products and Components for the Naval Sector

We offer a wide range of specialised solutions:

Certificaciones y normas

The electrical panels are manufactured under the UNE-EN ISO 9001 and UNE-EN ISO 14001 standards and are certified by different classification societies in the naval sector like Bureau Veritas, Lloyd’s Register, DNV-GL, etc.

They are tested and certified according to customer requirements under the standards:

STANAG 4549: Testing of surface ship equipment on shock testing machines
MIL-STD-1310: Shipboard bonding, grounding, and other techniques for electromagnetic compatibility, electromagnetic pulse (EMP) mitigation and safety
MIL-STD 740-2-SH: Structure borne vibratory acceleration measurements and acceptance criteria of shipboard equipment
MIL-STD 461: Electromagnetic interference characteristics requirements for equipment
MIL-S-901D: Shock Tests, H.I. (High Impact) Shipboard Machinery.
MIL-STD-462: Electromagnetic Environmental Effects Requirements for Systems (All Notices).
MIL-STD-167-1A: Mechanical Vibration of Shipboard Equipment (Type I and Type II).
MIL-STD-810: Environmental Engineering Considerations and Laboratory.
UNE-EN 61000-6-4:2007: Emission for industrial environments.
UNE-EN 61000-6-2:2006: Immunity in industrial environments.

Scope and references

It has participated in the manufacture of electrical panels for practically all the Spanish Navy’s ships, among whose latest references are the Strategic Projection Ship (BPE) or Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD), the series of Maritime Support Ships (BAM), the Combat Support Ship (BAC) or the F-105, frigate of the F-100 series.

It also manufactures electrical panels for different navies in other countries. In the case of Venezuela, it has references such as the “Patrulleros Oceánicos de Vigilancia” (POV) (Ocean Patrol Vessels) or the “Buques de Vigilancia del Litoral” (BVL) (Coastal Surveillance Vessels).

En los últimos años ha participado en la fabricación de cuadros eléctricos para el buque Auxiliary Oiler Replenishment (AAOR), las fragatas de la clase Hobart AWD de la Armada de Australia y los portahelicópteros de la serie Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD), todos ellos para la Armada Australiana.

In recent years, it has been involved in the manufacture of electrical panels for the Auxiliary Oiler Replenishment (AAOR) ship, the Australian Navy’s Hobart AWD class frigates and the Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD) series of helicopter carriers, all for the Australian Navy.

In the naval sector, it also manufactures electrical panels for submarines. In 1998, it participated in the manufacture of the secondary electrical panels for Scorpene class two submarines for the Chilean Navy. In the last decade, it has participated in the manufacture of the electrical panels of battery heads, the diesel dynamo shore panel and the propulsion panel of the S-70 series submarines of the Spanish Navy in the large hull in which all the electrical panels have been replaced. In recent years ELINSA has been involved in the development of the fuel cell power generation system for the S-80 series submarines, developing a power adaptation system, known as SAP, with high electrical and mechanical requirements.

The long list of references includes the manufacture of electrical panels for the naval sector, including ships and submarines for the navies of different countries such as Spain, Norway, Australia, Chile, Venezuela and Thailand.
