DC/DC converter delivers up to 1kW output power
Absopulse Electronics
PDC 765 Series DC/DC converter
The PDC 765 Series DC/DC converter from Absolpulse delivers up to 1kW output power for use in industrial, transportation, oil and gas, mining and other demanding environments.
Full encapsulation in a thermally conductive MIL-grade silicon rubber compound ensures resistance to high levels of shock, vibration and moisture.
A railway version that complies with EN 50155 for electronic equipment used on railway rolling stock is also available.
This 1kW converter delivers outputs of 12V/83A, 24V/41A, 48V/21A or 110V DC/9A.
It accepts 48V (42V-60V range) or 125V DC (90V-145V range) supply voltages.
Other input and output values are available on request.
An optional redundancy diode allows for parallel connection.
Other options include alarms and indicators.
Cooling is via base plate by conduction.
The unit operates in a -40C to 60C cold plate temperature range at full specification, with extended temperature ranges available on request.
This compact, encapsulated converter measures 155 x 72 x 269mm and weighs 4kg.
The PDC 765 is filtered to meet EN 55022 Class A EMI with wide margins.
It is designed to meet EN 60950 and related standards.
Protection features include inrush current limiting, surge and reverse polarity protection on the input.
Output protection includes current limiting with short-circuit protection and thermal shutdown with self-resetting.
Line and load regulation combined are +/-1 per cent from no load to full load and efficiency is a minimum of 82 per cent, depending on input/output voltage combination.
