LOW LOSSES ENSURED
29 October 2012
DIN-rail power supply manufacturer PULS UK has launched new highefficiency 24V-20A and 48V-10A units.
The CPS20 (241 and 481) use new topology to offer many features allied to the quality and reliability expected from PULS, at a competitive price.
The CPS20 units are reported to deliver 94% efficiency and are packaged to take up only 65mm on the DIN-rail. PULS has ensured low losses even at low input voltages and low loads and the company claims that this is expected to become the industry benchmark for all 500W power supplies. The units are suitable for harsh environments, combining conformal coated variants with high-efficiency and reliability.
Other features include: screw terminals; negligible inrush current allowing the use of smaller wires and fuses; a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 537,000 hours; and PULS’s Bonus Power system delivering 20% current reserves to aid motor or inductive load start-up.
