Emerson Network Power Introduces High Density AC-DC Adapters For Medical Applications

Emerson Network Power has announced the release of its DA12-M series wall mount switching adapters, designed specifically for medical and information technology equipment (ITE) applications. These high-density, single output power adapters are capable of delivering 12V at 12W total power and feature a slim form factor – enabling the use of multiple adapters in dual wall outlet configurations.

DA12-M series switching adapters are suitable for non-patient contact and non-patient critical medical and dental devices and feature universal 90-264 Vac inputs in four ac plug configurations (US, UK, EU and AU models), each specifically suited for the region of the world in which they will be used. In addition, all four adapter configurations are engineered to meet stringent Level V Efficiency standards and are fully-certified by Energy Star 2.0 and CeC approvals.

The DA12-M series adapters feature comprehensive protections against overvoltage, overtemperature and short-circuit/overload conditions up to 150% above their maximum rating. The flexible power adapters also support a wide range of ambient operating temperatures from 0 to 40°C, have a ground leakage maximum current of 100µA at 50/60 Hz and provide constant voltage/current output.

In addition, the adapters comply with rigorous EN55022-B and FCC part 15 Level B EMC standards for conducted noise, feature built-in EMI filtering (CISPR 22 Class B) and boast an extensive array of ITE and medical safety approvals including UL/cUL/TUV/AS 60950-1/60601-1 certifications.

DA12-M series ac-dc wall mount adapters are available for immediate delivery. Standard lead-time for stock quantities is eight weeks and pricing starts at US $8.00 per unit.
