XP Power has introduced an innovative AC/DC switching power supply that enables users to specify any voltage level up to the maximum rating of each output while still maintaining full agency approvals. Other power supplies only permit pre-defined output voltages in order to maintain the approvals status, says the company.
The RCL175 is available with one to four outputs: 3 V to 60 V on output 1, 5 V to 60 V on output 2, and 5 V to 30 V on outputs 3 and 4. Outputs 3 and 4 are isolated, allowing parallel or series connection for further flexibility. Output 1 is user-adjustable by ±10% and the other outputs track this by the same percentage. The number of output configurations is therefore infinite, as is the variety of applications for this unit.
The RCL175 is rated at up to 120 W with convection cooling, 175 W with 12 CFM of forced-air cooling, and has a peak rating of 200 W. Efficiencies range from 84-90%. Open frame models measure 140 x 94,1 x 32,6 mm and weigh 500 g.
The compact power supply is approved for industrial, IT and medical applications and is suited to both Class I and Class II use (with or without a mains earth connection).
