Description
Kongsberg Simrad 382-098602 Power Supply
Product Introduction
The Kongsberg Simrad 382-098602 is an AC-input DC power supply used in Kongsberg Maritime acoustic transponder equipment. Kongsberg’s TTC 400 spare-parts documentation lists 382-098602 directly as the system’s “Power supply,” alongside the TX(MF) transmitter board, RX receiver board, 16 MHz microcontroller board, battery charger board, and motherboard. This confirms that the part is a system-level power component rather than a general-purpose PLC or DCS power module.
For the ACC 401 MF system, Kongsberg documentation identifies Kongsberg Simrad 382-098602 as an AC power supply rated at 48 VDC, 1 A, 45 W. The same system documentation places it alongside the 382-219490 MF30 kHz transmitter board, 382-083602 receiver board, 382-219335 microcontroller board, and 382-219052 battery charger board. That architecture matters when troubleshooting: a failure of the power supply can appear as a fault in several downstream electronic assemblies even though the individual boards remain functional.
The Kongsberg Simrad 382-098602 is also identified in component records as a Hitron HIU45-S480010 power supply. For replacement procurement, the complete part-number relationship should be preserved rather than sourcing a generic 48 VDC supply solely from the voltage rating. Output regulation, connector arrangement, physical dimensions, isolation characteristics, and compatibility with the original Kongsberg equipment all need to be checked before substitution.

Specification note: The 48 VDC / 1 A / 45 W rating is supported by Kongsberg’s ACC 401 documentation. Detailed electrical characteristics such as AC input range, efficiency, ripple, isolation, protection functions, connector pinout, and environmental ratings were not sufficiently established in the available primary documentation and should not be treated as verified specifications.
382-098602
Main Features and Engineering Considerations
1. Dedicated marine-system power component
The 382-098602 should be treated as a replacement component for a defined Kongsberg system, not simply as a generic 48 VDC industrial power supply. The TTC 400 documentation explicitly identifies it as one of the unit’s main replaceable modules.
2. 48 VDC / 45 W output
The ACC 401 documentation specifies 48 VDC at 1 A, corresponding to a 45 W rating. This rating provides an important baseline when evaluating replacement units. A substitute with the same nominal voltage but a different regulation characteristic or connector configuration should not automatically be considered interchangeable.
3. Part-number traceability matters
Current component records associate 382-098602 with Hitron HIU45-S480010. For procurement, record both identifiers where they are present on the physical unit. This helps distinguish the original Kongsberg-assigned spare-part number from the underlying power-supply manufacturer’s model.
4. Do not confuse the supply with the battery charger
The TTC 400 contains separate power-related assemblies. Kongsberg lists 382-098602 as the power supply and 382-219052 as the battery charger board. A fault involving battery charging therefore should not automatically lead to replacement of 382-098602.
5. Verify the downstream load
The 48 VDC supply sits within an equipment architecture containing a transmitter, receiver, microcontroller, charger, and motherboard. Before replacement, check whether the reported symptom is a missing 48 V rail, excessive voltage ripple, intermittent shutdown, connector degradation, or a downstream short circuit. Replacing the supply without checking the load can result in another failure.
6. Connector and mechanical verification
For marine equipment, connector compatibility can be more important than simply matching voltage and wattage. Compare connector type, pin assignment, polarity, mounting arrangement, dimensions, and cable routing against the removed unit before installation.
Application Scenarios
Kongsberg TTC 400
The primary documented application is the Kongsberg TTC 400 acoustic transponder. The 382-098602 is listed as the TTC 400 power supply among the system’s main modules.
ACC 401 MF Acoustic Control System
Kongsberg documentation identifies 382-098602 in the ACC 401 MF system as an AC power supply providing 48 VDC at 1 A / 45 W.
Marine Acoustic Positioning Equipment
Its system role places the supply within marine acoustic electronics used for underwater positioning, transponder control, and related acoustic equipment. It should therefore be evaluated as part of the complete host-system power architecture rather than as an isolated automation power module.
Engineer’s Guide: Field Pitfalls
Pitfall 1 — Buying a generic 48 VDC supply
48 VDC is not enough to establish interchangeability. Check current capability, connector pinout, dimensions, isolation, protection behavior, and mounting.
Pitfall 2 — Confusing 45 W with the whole system’s consumption
The documented 45 W rating belongs to the 382-098602 power supply. It should not be interpreted as the total power consumption of the complete TTC 400 or ACC 401 system.
Pitfall 3 — Ignoring the Hitron identifier
If the physical unit carries HIU45-S480010, retain that information in the procurement record. It can help confirm that the replacement corresponds to the original power-supply assembly.
Pitfall 4 — Replacing the power supply before checking the load
A shorted downstream board, damaged wiring, or degraded battery/charger circuit can overload a replacement supply. Measure the output under the appropriate system conditions and inspect downstream circuits before returning the equipment to service.
Pitfall 5 — Assuming all Kongsberg 382-series boards are interchangeable
The surrounding 382-series components perform very different functions. For example, 382-219490 is the MF transmitter board, 382-083602 is the receiver board, and 382-219052 is the battery charger board. Part-number matching should be exact.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Kongsberg 382-098602?
Kongsberg 382-098602 is a power supply used in Kongsberg acoustic equipment, including the TTC 400. Kongsberg’s spare-parts documentation explicitly lists it as the TTC 400 power supply.
What is the output of 382-098602?
The ACC 401 documentation specifies 48 VDC, 1 A, 45 W for 382-098602.
Is 382-098602 a PLC or DCS module?
No. It is a dedicated power-supply component used within Kongsberg marine acoustic equipment.
What is the Hitron model associated with 382-098602?
Available component records identify it as Hitron HIU45-S480010.
Can any 48 VDC / 1 A supply replace it?
Not without engineering verification. Voltage and current are only two parameters. Connector pinout, AC input characteristics, regulation, isolation, mechanical fit, protection behavior, and system compatibility should also be confirmed.
Is 382-098602 the battery charger?
No. In the TTC 400 architecture, Kongsberg lists 382-098602 as the power supply and 382-219052 separately as the battery charger board.
Procurement Note
For a replacement purchase, specify the complete identifier as Kongsberg Simrad 382-098602, and retain the associated Hitron HIU45-S480010 marking when present. Confirm that the unit is the 48 VDC / 1 A / 45 W version documented for the Kongsberg application. Before installation, compare the original unit’s input requirements, output connector/pinout, physical dimensions, revision markings, and condition.
For used or surplus units, functional testing should include output-voltage verification and inspection for capacitor aging, corrosion, connector damage, and evidence of overheating. Because this supply supports other electronic assemblies, procurement should prioritize an exact part-number match rather than treating a generic 48 VDC power supply as an equivalent.
