"Having a single power supply such as Lambda's KPS Series, that can accept a wide range of input voltages, means that OEMs are able to market their products globally without having to source multiple power supplies".
The KPS Series has UL, CSA and EN60950 safety approvals, is CE marked, and has the additional protection of Lambda's one year warranty. Request a free brochure from TDK-Lambda UK ...
