XP Power has announced the DSR range of AC-DC DIN rail power supplies approved for industrial control systems and information technology equipment applications. These versatile supplies provide reliable power with a 150% peak load capability in a slim DIN rail mount metal case.
Competitively priced, the DSR’s space saving design features a width of just 32 mm for 75 W and 120 W models, and 45 mm for 240 W models, making them among the slimmest available in the market today.
For use in industrial and building control applications, specific deployment areas include machine control, factory automation, escalator/lift control, as well as building control and security systems.
Technological advancements in these areas require greater automation and control, whilst minimising control system size without compromising reliability. XP Power’s DSR power supplies are perfectly suited to address these needs.
DSR power supply models feature high efficiency and two lower power models are available with 12, 24 and 48 V outputs, whilst the DSR240 is available with 24 or 48 V outputs. All models operate from an input supply 85-264 VAC.
The power supplies’ 150% peak load capability enables start up for electro-mechanical loads. Ambient temperature rating is -25 to 70°C for all models, with rated power available up to 50 or 60°C model dependent. Volt free relay contacts facilitate remote monitoring for DC OK. Units can be paralleled for higher requirements or to provide N+1 redundancy in critical applications.
