APEC Product Roundup: BOM and Space Savers
by 
Easton, Pa. − Acopian has expanded its "Infinity" Series of AC-DC linear regulated (to 150 watts) power supplies with several new options. Available in single-output or wide-adjust output versions, the modules may be used in a broad range of applications, including R&D, OEM, ATE, instrumentation, and control systems. Modules and systems ship fully assembled, wired and 100 percent tested within six days after receipt of order, depending on complexity of requirements.
Standard features of the configurable power supplies include remote sensing, open sense protection, isolated output, short circuit and overload protection with enhanced start-up surge capabilities, no minimum load requirement, internal EMI filtering, and touch-safe pluggable connectors. Line and load regulation for most modules is 2 mV, and ripple is less than 0.25 mVrms, 0.75 mVp-p with virtually no common mode noise, said Acopian.
Single-output units feature output ranges from 1.5 V to 150 V and output current ratings up to 13.2 A, while wide-adjust units offer output ranges of 0 V to 150 V and output current ratings up to 8.8 A. New options include front or rear panel touch safe, IEC inlets, an on/off rocker switch, an AC "on" indicator, and a 115/230V selectable switch enabling products to be used worldwide.
Programmable models are available with a choice of 0V-5V or 0V-10V analog programming and monitors. Units are now available with AC inrush limiting, transient protection, thermostatically controlled fan, and temperature monitor. Modules may be customized with front panel control knobs, rubber feet, latching over current and over temperature protection for use as tabletop lab power supplies for powering components or circuits.
Provisions for redundancy and paralleling for higher current are available for critical applications. The redundancy option enables multiple units to be wired together, and includes a blocking diode, remote sensing of the load, and non-latching overvoltage protection. Other options include an inhibit or enable option, high frequency pulsed load filtering, output programming, voltage and current monitoring, high isolation output, an alarm with relay contacts, a "voltage output OK" monitor, auxiliary low current output, and final test data options.
The Infinity Series units are supplied in extruded aluminum cases. Mounting kits are available for DIN rail, wall mount, horizontal and vertical mounting applications. Units offer a full five-year warranty. Products are manufactured in the United States.
Availability: Units ship within six days after receipt of order, depending on complexity of requirements.
Pricing: Single-output module pricing starts at $280.00 each, and wide-adjust unit pricing starts at $365.00 each. Firm prices are quoted to customer specifications.
