Australian power products companies have released its next generation of DC DC converters (which is also known as linear converter or switching regulator). This has a wide input range from 43 volts to 154-volt input with power levels up to 240 Watt. It has the efficiency of up to 93 percent. This kind of converters has the target on new rail transportation applications. Modern trains require a wide range of linear converter to power a variety of new applications.
The railway systems require this as it has the capabilities to control voltages. It can control and monitor the application to keep it safe. The railway applications demand high-performance and reliable power systems for the security and safety of the applications. The new series of these amazing railway DC DC converters contain the regulated and isolated component that can operate a wide range of input voltage. These new converters simplify power system design to support multiple input voltage ranges. As it has high efficiency (up to 93 percent), engineers offer to use this.
A feature of the linear converter:
• It can operate 250 Watt to 500 Watt converters that are required for railway applications.
• It has the input to 45 to 154 volts and this has the cooling sink component.
• It can high resist to pollution and has a wide input voltage range.
• This has high efficiency and it can connect with different input and output.
• It has the feature of input voltage lockout, output overload protection, and output overvoltage protection.
We have heard a lot about the advanced features of AC DC power converters. Now, it’s the time to celebrate the new series of the switching regulator is basically designed for railway applications. In this blog, I am going to discuss its major features. Follow the below section to know this.
• High protection to pollution:
The new series of the converter has the enclosed part with no air ventilation holes. This has no cooling fans. Also, the internal circuit boards are coated. Therefore, it has high resistance capability to protect dust.
• Heatsink feature:
The new model of this converter has the heatsink and natural cooling system. That is why it does not need any additional heatsink and the cool plate is required. This model can operate the current up to 500 Watt and it can control the temperature up to 50 centigrade.
• High efficiency:
This converter has the full load efficiency of 90 percent. Consequently, this regulated railway DC DC converters can lead to low to high power. For that, the applications provide long life and high reliability.
• Wide voltage range:
The new series is designed to operate from 70 volts to 110 volts supply. It can operate from the input voltage of 45 to 154 volts. This wide input range allows many different railway applications. It also allows the applications to provide stable output voltage even with high input power supply. This can occur in engine starting. Therefore, it is required to the engine.
• Output protection:
The new series maintain constant output voltage. When the current limit is exceeded, the converter switches high power supply current mode. This mode can protect short circuit on the output.
Some converters also use in rail and smaller trains. It has become the key to rail transport. It can be used to provide engine start for trains. In addition, this converter has proven to have the superior technology that is used in trucks and buses that run with diesel engines.
Bottom Line:
In the electric system, the voltage may drop at any time and you need to take off the energy capacitor, especially for the railway industry. Engineers have modified this converter constantly and enhanced its reliability by reducing its saving costs.
