The LS50, LS75 and LS100 have 88 to 264V AC inputs, while the LS150 is switch-selectable for 115 or 230V AC, minimising the cost.
The power supplies also meet EN55022 Level A specifications, achieved with a 212uA earth-leakage filter; lower-leakage filters down to 50uA are available.
The series is CE marked and approved to UL60950, CSA60950 and EN60950 standards.
The Alpha 1000 units can provide up to 14 adjustable outputs.
Up to seven modules - single or dual outputs - can be fitted with output voltages from 1.8 to 48V and output currents of up to 120A; no minimum loads are required.
Inhibit, AC-fail, current-share and DC-good signals are available as options.
All models accept a wide range of input voltages - from 85 to 264V AC - and contain active power factor correction (PFC) circuitry to meet EN61000-3-2 standards.
The fan-cooled units measure a compact 63 x 200 x 279mm, and have a combination of screw or Faston terminals for quick and easy installation. Request a free brochure from Lambda ...
