TDK Lambda adds 100-6000W AC-DC Power Supply Family

TDK Corporation announces the successful development of the TDK-Lambda brand RWS-B series of ac-dc power supplies. The lineup comprises four models rated from 100 to 600 W, featuring simple function design, compact dimensions, and high efficiency to meet a wide range of customer requirements. Orders for the product will be accepted by TDK-Lambda Corporation from September 17, 2013.

The RWS-B series (100-, 150-, 300-, and 600-W) is based on a different concept from existing power supplies. The new "simple function" type models are designed to deliver solid basic performance with additional functionality optimized with regard to customer requirements and specific applications. The flagship HWS series from TDK-Lambda represents the high-end with a full complement of functions, while the RWS-B series is positioned as a mid-range product with simple functionality. By offering the HWS series and RWS-B series in a dual lineup configuration, we are able to respond even more flexibly to customers' needs and requirements.

The RWS-B series reflects latest TDK-Lambda technology in a simplified, compact, highly efficient power supply package. Efficiency at low loads and power consumption during standby has also been improved. Covering a wide range from low to high power applications, the series also contributes to a reduction in environmental impact. The service life of the electrolytic capacitors is rated for at least five years, resulting in increased reliability, and use under rugged ambient conditions is also supported.
