High-reliability 12- and 15-volt power supplies introduced by TDK-Lambda
SAN DIEGO, 18 April 2014. TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. in San Diego is introducing 12- and 15-volt models to the company's ZWS300BAF series of high-reliability power supplies for communications, broadcast, industrial, and test & measurement applications.
The power supplies operate from a universal input of 85 to 265 volts AC and features a 10-year electrolytic capacitor lifetime. The ZWS300BAF series now comprises of 12-, 15-, 24-, 36-, and 48-volt models, each adjustable by up to +/-10 percent to accommodate non-standard system voltages.
Standard features include over current and over voltage protection and an optional remote on/off or cover is also available.
Achieving up to 89 percent efficiency for the 12- and 15-volt models, the ZWS300BAF has an operating temperature range of -10 to 70 degrees Celsius, allowing 100 percent load operation in a 40 C convection-cooled environment and 60 percent load at 70 C with 1.4m/s airflow.
With active power factor correction that meets IEC61000-3-2, the ZWS300BAF has a 3 kilovolt AC input to output isolation and meets conducted and radiated EMC conforming to EN55011/EN55022B and FCC-B.
The ZWS300BAF is safety certified to UL/CSA/EN60950-1, EN50178 and carries the CE mark to the LV and RoHS directives. For more information contact TDK Lambda online at www.us.tdk-lambda.com.
