Design Capabilities

Nova Battery Systems resides in a modern multi facility arrangement in Bergenfield, NJ . This plant includes all necessary facilities for the complete design, manufacturing, and testing of the custom battery packs and chargers, including:

  • Custom battery pack and charger engineering center
  • PCB layout & assembly
  • Box build turnkey assembly
  • 3D printing
  • Customized sheet metal fabrication
  • Ultrasonic welding
  • Fully equipped machine shop
  • Plastics prototyping
  • Electrical and environmental testing

NBS’s in-house machine shop serves to produce customized sheet metal quickly and accurately. Having all facets of the design and production of the cpompany’s products under one roof ensures total quality and gives Nova Battery Systems the ability to rapidly customize our products as required. In addition, our location in the metro New York City area provides outstanding access to air, rail, and highway transportation.

Currently, Nova Battery Systems employees approximately 30 degreed engineers in the following functional areas:

  • Management
  • Research and Development
  • Sales
  • Electrical and Mechanical Engineering
  • Manufacturing
  • Quality Control
  • Test

Nova Battery Systems designs to and manufactures product which qualifies to military standards such as MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-167, MIL-S-901, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-1399, and RTCA/DO-160.

In addition to our extensive engineering staff, the company maintains in-house testing capabilities for the typical range of environmental conditions necessary to meet  military and harsh environment standards. More stringent MIL-Spec requirements are performed at accredited outside labs under our program guidance.

Nova Battery Systems is fully compliant to ISO9001:2015 and ISO13485:2016.

The company maintains a library of thousands of field proven designs. We modify these designs as necessary to meet customer specifications – or when the situation warrants, design a fully custom product to meet the customer’s specific application requirements.


Design Approach

Nova Battery Systems welcomes all requirements including build to specification or build to print requests and gladly offers our unique assistance in defining and developing a power conversion product to match your exact needs.

Our design approach takes into account the priority of your electrical, environmental and mechanical requirements including the system interaction of the application for which our power conversion products will be used. You will work one on one with our Engineering staff to ensure your complete satisfaction.

Our methodology in the design of all our products is based upon the following critical approach:

  1. Thoroughly review the power supply specification to define the specific requirements and its application. Determine if a Standard Product can be modified for the application or if a Fully Custom unit will be required.
  2. Determine the best topology to meet the electrical objectives of the specification while maximizing the designs’ efficiency, reliability and manufacturability including detailed cost examinations for quantity production.
  3. Establish a mechanical package that maximizes the best heat dissipation, provides secure component placement and stability, allows for functional air flow, secure connection points, and a well-designed enclosure as required for maxim Quality and Performance.
  4. Design all products to maximize their thermal dissipation of the principal heat generating components safeguarding the design from operating stresses at maximum specified temperature range.
  5. Establish manufacturability of the product based on ease of assembly eliminating potential or unintended quality problems during the production process.
  6. Product Design Verification & Test

Based on the above, Nova Battery Systems meets or exceeds our customer expectations while delivering a Specification Compliant Full Quality product.
