PowerPax - Lugged 18W power supply is believed to be industry's smallest
PowerPax UK has announced an 18W addition to its series of miniature lugged switch mode power supplies. The lugged series includes models to meet power requirements from 6 to 18W (with no minimum load) and with regulated outputs of 5Vdc to 24Vdc. The units feature an integral power cord which removes the risk of accidental disconnection from the mains supply.
A UK mains lead is fitted as standard but European, USA, Australian or bare ended mains lead options are available on request. All units come with a 2.1 x 5.5 x 12mm female barrel connector Polarity +ve centre as standard, but a comprehensive list of other DC output connector options are available.
The new 18 watt unit measures just 92.2 x 49.8 x 26.3mm including the fixing lugs (72.2 x 49.8 x 26.3mm without) and is believed to be the smallest external power supply available at this power rating. The lugs allow the case to be fixed down to any flat surface making them perfect for a comprehensive range of applications but particularly suited to CCTV and LED lighting requirements.
All models feature universal mains input 90 – 264VAC, 47 – 63Hz and meet energy efficiency level IV requirements. All of the power supplies in this range feature short circuit, over voltage and over current protection with automatic recovery. This series has been designed to provide excellent reliability and has a minimum MTBF of 50Khr’s. This range is compliant to UL and CE safety standards and is tested and compliant with EMC requirements. The product also complies with the requirements of the RoHS directive. PowerPax offer low minimum order quantities across the range and provide a free branding service for orders of 500 pieces or over so the customers own name or logo can be added at no extra cost.
