Emerson unveils AC/DC power supply

Capable of delivering up to 4,920W of high-density output (12W/in3), the iVS is a fully programmable and intelligent high-power standard power supply.

Emerson Network Power's iVS power supplies are specifically designed for industrial, military and medical instrumentation applications that require high power, reliability and maximum flexibility.

Fully modular in design, iVS power supplies use digitally configurable single- and dual- output power supply modules available in six power ratings.

Spanning 210W to 1,500W, they support 24 different output choices ranging from 2V to 60V, to allow a wide choice of power configurations.

All modules are fully interoperable with existing Emerson configurable platforms, and can be quickly configured to match exact application requirements, enabling greater precision and energy efficiency.

To maximise control flexibility, microcontrollers integrated into the case and modules are paired with Emerson Network Power's highly intuitive I2C GUI-based control software.

The software enables designers to configure and reconfigure voltages and current limits, and inhibit or enable settings for individual power supplies, while allowing them to conveniently export their final configuration specs for mass application.

It offers OEMs and end users powerful real-time voltage, current and temperature monitoring, to provide at-a-glance performance confirmation for the entire power supply, including the case and all its constituent modules.

All iVS power supplies feature field-upgradable firmware, which extends product lifecycles and offers developers flexibility and interoperability.

They are rigorously industrialised to ensure high reliability in demanding applications, and are rated for performance at temperatures ranging from -40 to 70C.

They are also pre-certified for a wide range of safety specifications - including UL, CSA, VDE, CE and CB certifications - to ensure rapid, cost-effective power provision off-the- shelf.
