The Excelsys Xqite has a universal input range, 85-264V AC, over-voltage protection and will operate at full load up to 50C.
High-efficiency supplies configured online
Ultracompact high-power-density power supplies can be configured to order with system power levels up to 600W.
Seven different powerMods are available with nominal DC outputs of 2.5V/50A, 5.0V/40A, 12.0V/20A, 24.0V/30A, 48.0V/6A, 24V/5A and 24V/3A.
All powerMods offer users very wide output voltage adjustment to fully meet individual requirements.
In addition to EN60601-1 and UL260101 medical approvals all Xmite power supplies are CE marked and meet international EMC requirements.
Other useful features for system developers are LED status indicators and control signals and an independent 5V DC "bias" voltage for "standby" functions Gary Duffy, Managing Director of Excelsys Technologies, comments: "Our new Xmite range is the most flexible power supply in this market and brings affordable user configurable power to 200 to 600W medical applications".
"Xmite has unrivalled efficiency and power density offering our customers significant space savings".
"As system designers may configure the exact power supply they require off the shelf, with no custom design or NRE charges, development costs and time to market are significantly improved".
The Excelsys Xmite has a universal input voltage range of 85-264V AC, overvoltage and overtemperature protection, and will operate at full load up to 50C.
Ultra-high efficiency, enhanced reliability and system thermal load reduced by more than 50% over conventional designs is achieved by a combination of low loss technologies, a low number of long-life electrolytic capacitors, high quality field-proven planar magnetics and a high degree of surface mount assembly.
Xmite customers may specify the exact power supply they require by using the Excelsys online configurator and use the automatically issued unique part number to place orders for evaluation samples.
Typical applications include, medical lasers, monitoring systems, radiological imaging, clinical diagnostics and chemistry.
