Archcorp’s AQF500 switching power supply can source up to 500 W from its 127 x 76,2 x 32,5 mm open-frame board, provided airflow of 30 CFM is provided; otherwise free air convection is sufficient for it to supply 240 W. The supported input range is 90 – 264 V a.c. or 120 – 370 V d.c. and internal correction ensures the power factor is maintained above 0,95.
There are three models in the family, providing 12 V, 24 V and 48 V respectively, with voltage accuracy in the ±2% range. Features include a 12 V/0,3 A auxiliary output, remote on/off and efficiency levels up to 92%. Standby (5 V) current consumption is 0,6 A without a fan or 1 A with one.
The power supply comes with a three-year warranty and incorporates over-power, over-voltage, over-temperature and short circuit protection.
