480W DIN-Rail Power Supplies Deliver 720W Peak Power

May 02, 2017 by Jeff Shepard

RECOM has extended its "Slim-shape" DIN-Rail series with a powerful 480W version, featuring a power boost mode capable of delivering 720W peak load capacity. A robust housing and highly reliable components ensure extraordinary durability for demanding commercial and industrial control cabinet applications.

The REDIN480 PSUs offer versatile space-savings, taking up only 71mm width in the DIN-Rail cabinet, and they are also equipped with a side-mounting system to offer a low profile in systems where installation depth is critical. Operating at an input voltage range from 85- to 264-Vac, they are suitable for line voltages worldwide and deliver output voltages of 24Vdc and 48Vdc for a variety of industrial control equipment.

Highly-reliable components, such as long-life electrolytic capacitors and high-grade ferrites, ensure high durability. An efficiency of 93% means very little heat dissipation allowing the power supply to be operated at a wide ambient temperature range of -25 to +70 degrees C with normal air convection. The modules are equipped with a PFC circuit for a power factor >0.95 and allow n+1 parallel operation to provide redundancy or to increase the continuous output current.

The modules have an integrated smart overload control limit and short-circuit protection circuitry and switch off to prevent permanent damage to the system if the maximum permissible temperature is exceeded. These new modules are certified to IEC/EN/UL60950 and UL508 Standard for Industrial Control Equipment and come with a 5-year warranty. Samples are available from all authorized distributors.
