NES Nová Dubnica · Exclusive Australian distributor

Cathodic protection rectifiers.

NES Nová Dubnica has been building power electronics in Slovakia since 1992 — cathodic protection rectifiers, impressed current power supplies and switching drainage units. Aegis Sentinel is their authorised distributor in Australia.

That means the full range, with stock and spares held in Melbourne and engineers who can size a unit, commission it and support it afterwards. Every rectifier can report into DataScape, so you know what it's doing without driving to it — whether it's protecting a buried pipeline, a storage tank, a wharf or reinforced concrete.

Product range

1 A to 100 A, off the shelf

Standard units from 1 A to 100 A, with custom applications built for higher output. If what you need isn't listed, it's still available.

SZK Series

Air-cooled CP rectifiers

Switchmode impressed current cathodic protection rectifiers in a robust steel enclosure. A wide range of output voltages and currents to suit pipeline, tank and structural protection.

  • 1 – 100 A standard
  • IP 55 / IP 65 options

SZKO Series

Oil-cooled CP rectifiers

For high-duty-cycle installations and environments demanding superior thermal performance and reliability.

  • 50 A / 50 Vdc
  • 58 °C ambient · IP 65

SDU

Switching drainage units

Automatic and manual switching drainage for stray current mitigation on DC traction networks. Fully compatible with VEC electrolysis committee requirements for the Victorian rail network.

  • Tram and rail traction
  • VEC compatible

AC/DC

Switching power supplies

High-efficiency IGBT-based switching power supplies with output ripple optimised for cathodic protection and galvanic plant applications.

  • Efficiency up to 92 %
  • Ripple < 1 % typical

Integration

Remote monitoring

All NES rectifiers integrate with DataScape via Modbus RTU/TCP — 24/7 remote monitoring, alarming and trending from a single dashboard.

  • Modbus RTU / TCP
  • RS-485 as standard

Custom

Special power supplies

NES designs and manufactures custom supplies for electroplating, DC/DC conversion, battery charging and DC UPS systems.

  • Built to specification

Why Aegis Sentinel

Exclusive, and local

We're the exclusive Australian distributor, backed by an engineering team with deep cathodic protection expertise. Stock of common models and spare parts is held in Melbourne, with local commissioning and technical support across Victoria and nationally — so a fast response means days, not a shipment from Slovakia.

Compact design also makes these a straightforward replacement in an existing cabinet — and the integrated relay means instant-off surveys without extra hardware.
