The Behlman BL1500 has been constantly improved over the last 18 years, to keep it on the cutting edge.

Hauppauge, NY (PRWEB) August 04, 2014

Behlman Electronics Inc., known in the oil industry for its ultra-reliable power supplies that enable companies to power AC equipment up to five miles down-hole, in even the most adverse field conditions, has announced that additional orders for their Model BL1500 power supply have raised the oil industry global total to 2,300 units.

Although the Behlman BL1500 has been helping oil-industry companies succeed for eighteen years, it has been continuously improved to keep up with the leading edge of emerging exploration technology. As a result, no matter how old or new the exploration system, BL1500 is the perfect choice for delivering ultra-reliable down-hole power.

The Behlman BL1500 unit is powered from 115 VAC, 47-63 Hz and provides two ranges of high-voltage AC at 60 Hz. Units can be stacked for increased power. Protective circuits include input, short circuit, constant current and thermal protection. BL1500 power supplies have an RS 485 interface, allowing units to be controlled and monitored remotely from a central station. They operate from 32 to 131 degrees F (0 to 55 degrees C), and have high-strength 19-inch rack mount chassis 3.5” high x 21.5” deep (48.25 cm wide x 7.87 cm high x 54.61 deep).

According to Behlman President, Ron Storm, “The Behlman BL1500 has been constantly improved over the last 18 years, to keep it on the cutting edge of down-hole power requirements for oil and gas exploration systems. As petroleum demand increases and prices rise, drilling systems evolve, improve, and get more use. We ensure that BL1500 keeps up, to give these systems the highest reliability and performance needed to meet their owners’ strategic and economic goals.”
