Desktop adapters ideal for portable equipment
Phihong
Three-wire input desktop adapter series
Phihong has developed a 30W universal three-wire input desktop adapter series, designated the PSC30U-V series.
The adapters are available in 12-, 24-, and 48VDC outputs; all of which are Energy Star EPS Version 2.0- and EISA-compliant.
Featuring a low-profile design, non-vented, spill-proof case, and Class B EMI compliance, the 30W adapters are ideal for portable equipment, networking, peripherals, and gaming machines.
Surpassing the minimum efficiency requirements of both EISA and Energy Star EPS v2.0, PSC30U-V series adapters operate above 83.5 per cent average efficiency and feature a maximum no load power draw of 0.3W.
The adapters also feature over-voltage protection with automatic shutdown and recovery after AC power reset, over-current protection with auto restart, and short-circuit protection.
Also, in addition to Energy Star Level V efficiency markings, PSC30U-V series adapters bear cUL/UL 60950-1, TUV 60950-1, CE, SAA, and C-Tick safety approvals and markings.
PSC30U-V series adapters measure 4.59 x 2.17 x 1.24in, feature IEC 320 C14 inlet receptacles, and weigh 8.82oz.
Each adapter is terminated with a locking DC jack with 2.5mm centre pins and comes standard with a removable DC output cord terminated with a 2.1mm output barrel plug.
The series is rated for operation from 0C to +40C.
