The Intermarine IME-A1 is a specialized, maritime-certified Citadel Backup Power Supply (UPS). In maritime security, a “Citadel” is a designated safe room where the crew retreats during a pirate attack. The IME-A1 is designed to ensure that critical communication and navigation equipment remains operational even if the ship’s main power is cut or sabotaged.

The IME-A1 acts as a ruggedized Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) tailored for the harsh conditions of a maritime citadel. Unlike standard office UPS units, it is built to survive extreme vibrations and provide extended runtimes for satellite communications (like Iridium ComCenter II) and emergency lighting.

• Automatic Switch-over: Seamlessly transitions from the ship’s main 220V AC power to internal 24V DC battery power upon loss of mains.

• Enclosure: Housed in a maritime-grade, wall-mounted steel case with a corrosion-resistant coating.

• Application: Typically powers Citadel communication links, allowing the crew to maintain contact with naval forces or the shipowner during a lock-down.
