Jersey City, NJ. Bel Power Solutions, a division of Bel Fuse Inc. and a global manufacturer of power management devices, has announced the expansion of its open-frame, AC/DC power-supply portfolio to include the ABC550 and MBC550 Series power supplies for industrial and medical applications.
These open-frame units deliver up to 550 W in a compact 3 x 5-inch footprint and can be utilized in many conditions, including convection cooled (no fans) up to 150 W, conduction cooling (heatsink surface) up to 250 W, or up to 550 W in forced-air-cooled environments.
Dennis Ackerman, President of Bel Power Solutions, said: “We are excited to launch this expansion of the ABC/MBC Series, which we believe solves a top concern of today’s power designer, who is increasingly challenged to incorporate more power into smaller spaces. In combination with conduction cooling for when a fan is simply not an option, the ABC/MBC Series provides engineers with true design flexibility from a proven leader in power protection.”
The power supplies accommodate the universal input voltage of 90 to 264 VAC or 390 VDC, 47 to 63 Hz, are available in six output voltages ranging from 12 V to 58 V, with an operating temperature range of -40° to +70° and efficiencies of up to 92%. RoHS compliant and CE Marked, the power supplies are safety-agency certified per UL and NEMKO and meet the requirements of EN60950-1. They further meet the conducted and radiated EMI requirements of EN55022-B. The ABC Series is suitable for use in space-constrained OEM, industrial, telecom, and datacom applications. The MBC Series is for medical applications in which minimal power loss and easy thermal management are required such as lighting, IT equipment, wireless communications, renewable energy, and HMI touch panels.
