Versatile AC/DC delivers 20W in small form factor
In new energy applications, AC/DCs increasingly need to operate over nominal supply values from 100VAC to 277VAC. The recently launched RAC20NE-K/277 from RECOM matches this well with 20W available at optional 12, 24, or 36VDC outputs.
Encapsulated versions are available with constant voltage or constant current limiting characteristics as well as a constant voltage open frame type with 12 or 24VDC output.
The RAC20NE-K/277 series is highly efficient, allowing reliable operation at full load to 60°C ambient, and to 85°C with derating. The parts are Class II insulated, OVC III rated to 3,000m altitude (OVC II/5,000m), and meet EN 55032 ‘Class B’ EMC requirements with a floating or grounded output. Standby and no-load power dissipation meet Eco-design requirements.
The RAC20NE-K/277 board-mount, encapsulated parts are sized 52.5 x 27.6 x 23.0mm while the open frame parts with Molex connections are just 80.0 x 23.8 x 22.5mm.
“These parts are an ideal solution for the expanding new energy market where low cost, wide input range, and high transient immunity are requirements” comments Michael Schrutka, MSc. AC/DC Product Manager of RECOM. “They will typically find use in energy management, monitoring, and powering actuators, as well as in general purpose applications.”
Parts include a three-year warranty. Samples and OEM pricing are available from all authorised distributors or directly from RECOM.
