Low-profile power supplies

29 May 2013 Power Electronics / Power Management

XP Power’s ECP225 series of highly efficient, low-profile AC-DC power supplies delivers up to 150 W by convection cooling alone and a maximum of 225 W when a forced airflow of only 10 CFM is applied.

With a typical efficiency of 94% and no-load power consumption of less than 0,5 W, the series helps engineers comply with the latest energy efficiency standards.

With a profile of just 25,4 mm and a footprint measuring 63,5 x 127 mm, the series has five single-output models, providing all the popular nominal output voltages from 12 to 48 V d.c. A trim function permits a ±5% adjustment from stated output in order to compensate for load losses or special application requirements. In addition, a 12 V d.c./0,5 A fan output is provided across the range.

Meeting the IT equipment safety specifications of UL/IEC/EN 60950-1 and the latest stringent third edition medical safety standards ANSI/AAMI IS 60601-1 and IEC/EN60601-1, the ECP225 series is suitable for use in a wide range of information technology, industrial and medical equipment. The units also comply with the internationally recognised EMC standards EN55011 and EN55022 Class B specifications for conducted noise and Class A limits for radiated emissions.

The ECP225 accommodates most operating temperature environments from -20 to 70°C, with no derating until 50°C.
