Powerstax, one of Europe’s leading value-added and industrial power solutions manufacturers has appointed Martin Langmead as their new Sales Engineer. Martin has had a long and distinguished career designing-in and selling power supplies and has worked for well known companies including Powerline, XP, Nu Horizons, UR and Xcel Power.

He joins Powerstax to focus on growing their UK business, focusing particularly on the switched mode ranges of power conversion products.

Chief Executive Officer Tim Worley said: “Since the retirement of Simon Head, we have been seeking an industry specialist to grow our UK sales and I am delighted to welcome Martin to the Powerstax team and am looking forward to working with him. We seem to have managed to work in the industry for sixty-plus years between us and not worked together, so it’s time to put that right.

“Martin will be based in Chester, giving more face to face access to our customers in the midlands and north of the country, we will continue to service the south from our head office in Essex and Design and Sales Office in Sussex”.

Powerstax designs and manufactures a range of standard, value-added and custom AC and DC power solutions for a broad range of fixed and mobile applications including hot-swap front-end AC/DC bulk power, DC/DC converter bricks and modules and programmable, modular, rack mounted power supplies. Their Drake range of transformer rectifiers offer output currents to 5,000A and output power up to 1,000kVA and beyond.

Power solutions are available for harsh (marine, offshore, desert) and hazardous (Zone one and Zone two) environments and can be oil, air or water cooled and can be sealed up to IP65 if the environment dictates with purge and pressure systems and heat exchangers incorporated if required.
