A SITOP DC/DC converter can be used as a “refresher” – in other words, this module guarantees a reliable power supply to a remote load when bridging long distances. At the same time, a SITOP DC/DC converter serves as a stabilizer: If the power supply is unstable, it stabilizes it in the downstream feeder. This type of module is ideal for use with battery-powered devices, where the battery’s output voltage can vary depending on its charge status. A SITOP DC/DC converter ensures a stable 24 V DC supply to connected loads, such as a control unit (CPU).
The SITOP PSU400M power supply with a 600 V DC input is suitable as an efficient DC/DC converter for drive and battery systems. It has a large input range and temperature range, high efficiency of 95 percent, and a slim design. Thanks to its overload capacity, it supplies 50 percent extra power for 5 s/min.
As an accessory, a voltage surge limiter (6EP1566-3AA00) is available as ballast for the SITOP PSU400M. This makes it possible to connect the DC/DC converter directly to a DC voltage of up to 900 V
Stable power supply despite fluctuating DC voltage
Plants and systems with safety-related applications are equipped with a battery backup. These include, for example, applications in industry, power plants, water treatment plants, and vehicle on-board power supplies. In order to reliably supply the loads involved in this type of application with their rated input voltage, SITOP offers a range of different DC/DC converters.
Typical DC/DC converter applications:
Refreshing DC voltage when bridging long distances
Stabilizing DC voltage when the input voltage fluctuates
Galvanic isolation of DC feeders, e.g. in shipbuilding
