150W, Encapsulated Railway DC/DC Converters Offer RIA12 Surge Withstand Capacity

ABSOPULSE Electronics' RWR 155 series of fully encapsulated, ultra-rugged, railway quality dc/dc converters deliver up to 150W output power. They meet the requirements of EN50155, and with an input voltage surge withstand capability of 385Vdc for >1 second (3.5Vn for 20msec min.), they also meet RIA12.

The converters accept 24Vdc, 36Vdc, 48Vdc, 72Vdc, 96Vdc or 110Vdc with wide EN50155 input ranges, and deliver a single output of 12V, 24Vdc, 48Vdc or 110Vdc. Regulation is 1% from no load to full load across all line and load conditions. The RWR 155 units are fully encapsulated in a thermally conductive MIL-grade silicon rubber compound with a UL94V-0 flammability rating. They also meet environmental criteria stipulated in MIL-810C, D, with protection from high levels of shock and vibration, moisture, salt, fog and other contaminants.  Cooling is by conduction via base plate to a heatsinking surface. The units operate over a -40°C to +70°C temperature range for full specification (no derating).  The compact railway converters measure 108 x 70 x 191 mm.
