The new model has been designed for data communications and renewable energy applications utilising 380V HVDC (High Voltage DC).
It is rated at 5V 60A and has a wide 2.5 to 6V adjustment range to accommodate non-standard voltages. Packaged in the industry standard half-brick format (61.0 x 12.7 x 57.9mm), it has an efficiency of 89% and can operate at full load with -40°C to +100°C baseplate temperatures. The converter can be conduction cooled making it suitable for use in sealed outdoor enclosures, liquid cooled applications or convection cooled with an optional heatsink.
All PH-A280 modules have a standard feature set including a five-year warranty, remote on-off, over-current, and over-voltage protection. The series is fully isolated with an input to output isolation of 3,000Vac and safety certified to IEC/EN 60950-1, UL/CSA 60950-1 with CE marking for the Low Voltage and RoHS2 Directives.
In addition, the PH300A280 models are certified to EN 62477-1 (Over Voltage Category III) for fixed installations with a permanent connection to a distribution panel. This avoids the need for a transformer to reduce input voltage transients.
