Power supplies deliver high power density
TDK-Lambda has announced the EFE Series of embedded front-end power supplies designed to deliver high power density, high efficiency and enhanced reliability.
Power supplies minimise waste heat
The GEN60-40, GEN150-16 and GEN600-4 models achieve 88% efficiency at 200V AC, while the GEN8-300's efficiency is rated at 84%.
The DPP240 is low cost and yet feature rich, with power factor correction and a switch function that allows up to three units to be connected in parallel (droop mode).
The supplies are convection cooled and can operate at full power over a wide temperature range of -25 to +61C, derating linearly at 2.5% per degree from 61 to 71C.
Overcurrent and overvoltage protection are provided.
Offering either 24 or 48V outputs, the DPP240 has a nominal 115/230V AC autoselect input range.
Load regulation is +/-1% in single mode and +/-5% in parallel mode, with ripple and noise below 100mV.
A DC-good relay output is provided on the 24V model, and red and green LEDs indicate output status on all models.
Measuring just 125 x 83 x 126mm, the DPP240 units will mount on either a TS35/7.5 or TS35/15 DIN rail offering engineers a flexible option for applications, including process control, automotive, chemical processing, burn-in and test.
As with existing members in the DPP Series, the DPP240 is approved to UL508 safety standard for industrial control equipment.
Further safety approvals include UL60950-1 and EN60950-1.
The DDP240 meets Class B EMC compliance and is PFC compliant to EN61000-3-2.
All models carry a two-year warranty and are CE approved. Request a free brochure from TDK-Lambda UK ...
