90W and 120W Adapters Meet Level VI Efficiency Standards

April 21, 2015 by Jeff Shepard

CUI Inc. announced the enhancement of its 90W and 120W desktop ac-dc power supply series to meet the new Level VI efficiency standards. The SDI90-U and SDI120-U series meet the more stringent average efficiency and no load power requirements set to go into effect in February 2016. The US Department of Energy (DOE) Level VI standards aim to significantly lower the amount of power consumed when the end application is not in use or is no longer connected to the system.

The external power supplies also features a wide universal input voltage range of 90- to 264-Vac and are available in single output voltages of 12-, 15-, 16-, 18-, 19-, 24-, and 48-Vdc depending on the series. The adapters offer UL/cUL, GS and PSE safety approvals and meet the radiated and conducted emission requirements for FCC Part 15B Class B.

Additional features include power factor correction as well as over voltage and short circuit protections. The new SDI90-U and SDI120-U series are available with prices starting at $30.24 per unit at 1,000 pieces.
