RECOM Launches 2 "x 1" 20W AC/DC Converter Conforming to OVC III

     RECOM added RAC20E-K/277 series in E-K series, which is a 20W AC/DC power module on PCB. One of the characteristics of RAC20E-K/277 is that it has OVC III overvoltage level, can operate at an altitude of 2000m (5000m for OVC II), and has a wide operating temperature range (derating) from - 40 ° C to+90 ° C. Therefore, it is very suitable for harsh environmental conditions, such as roadside electric vehicle charging piles, industrial, test and measurement and general household power supplies, as well as applications including nominal 277Vac power supplies.

    Although it is an economical design, the package size is only 52.7 mm x 27.6 mm, which is the same as the existing 20W. Due to different pin arrangements, it can be compatible with more industry standards. Full load operation in an extremely wide input range of 85 – 305Vac. The module provides 5V, 12V or 24V single output, with efficiency above 80% and no-load power consumption below 200mW, meeting ECO instructions. The size of RECOM E-K series is the same as that of K series, and it can be compatible with more industry standards due to different pin arrangements.

     Michael Schrutka, Product Manager of RECOM AC/DC, said, "Because of the wide input range without low voltage limitation, these cost-effective modules can easily be designed for various applications worldwide, and the characteristics of the high overvoltage category further expand their potential applications."

     The isolation level of the module is up to 4kVac, and it has obtained UL/IEC/EN 62368-1 and IEC/EN 61558-1/2-16 safety certification. The requirements of EN 55032 EMC Class B can be met without adding external components.
Like all RECOM AC/DC products, this module has perfect output overvoltage, overcurrent and short-circuit protection functions. Due to the use of highly reliable components and advanced design technology, according to MIL-HDBK-217F (GB) standard, the MTBF at 25 ° C is 830000 hours, and the 3-year quality assurance of the RECOM standard is also available.
