Open-frame power supplies meet ErP Directive

The RAC48/OF and RAC60/OF comply with worldwide safety standards as well as the European ErP Directive. The supplies are suitable for use in systems such as industrial controls, computing, test gear, network equipment and medical applications. These compact AC/DC PSUs can typically operate reliably in high ambient temperatures without active cooling and have a specified operating range of -20 to 50°C at 100% load and up to 70°C at derated load. Performance advantages include high efficiency, sub-0.5W standby power and a long hold-up time of 60ms. Both are available with output voltages of 5.0, 12, 15 and 24V DC, adjustable via the on-board preset. The DC outputs are fully protected with over-current protection, over-voltage protection and hiccup short circuit protection. The universal input voltage range of 90 to 265V AC and 3kV AC/1 minute isolation, they are suitable for worldwide use. Certifications include EN55022 EMC (Class B), IEC 60950-1 CB Report, EMC LVD CE mark, FCC and UL 60950-1 certificates. The MTBF lifetime (MIL-HDBK217F) is approximately 450,000 hours. All units are covered by a three-year warranty.
