DC / DC CONVERTER
DC-DC CONVERTER: EFFICIENCY AND VERSATILITY FOR MILITARY VEHICLES
DC-DC converters are a type of power converter that transform direct current (DC) from one voltage level to another. These converters play a vital role in many electronic systems, ensuring efficient and safe power transfer from one source to a device. DC-DC power supplies are essential in scenarios where different components within a single electronic device require varying voltage levels for proper operation. These converters can increase, decrease, or reverse the voltage level as needed.
By integrating the following advanced features, Piedrafita DefPower’s DC-DC converters ensure robust and efficient power management for military vehicles, enhancing their operational reliability and performance.
MAIN FEATURES OF DC-DC CONVERTER
Fully compliant with MIL-STD
The DC-DC converter meets all relevant military standards (MIL-STD), ensuring it adheres to stringent requirements for durability, reliability, and performance in military environments.
IP67 Sealing
The IP67 sealing ensures the DC-DC power supplies are protected against dust and water ingress, making them suitable for use in harsh and demanding environments. This high level of sealing guarantees that the converters can withstand extreme conditions encountered in military operations.
Military connectors
Equipped with military-grade connectors, the DC-DC converter ensures secure and reliable connections. These connectors are designed to endure the rigorous physical and environmental stresses found in military applications.
Optimised for use in testing applications
The DC-DC power supplies are optimised for testing applications, providing consistent and precise performance required during the testing phases of military equipment. This optimisation ensures that the converters can handle the rigorous demands of extensive testing procedures.
Input voltage range: 16-50V (Typically 28V)
The wide input voltage range of 16-50V, with a typical value of 28V, allows the DC-DC converter to accommodate various power sources, ensuring flexibility and compatibility with different military vehicle power systems.
Output voltage: 11.94-12.06V (Typically 12.0V)
The output voltage is tightly regulated between 11.94 and 12.06V, typically set at 12.0V, ensuring that sensitive electronic components receive stable and precise voltage levels for optimal performance.
Accuracy of output voltage: 0.5%
The DC-DC converter provides an output voltage accuracy of 0.5%, ensuring minimal deviation from the desired voltage level. This high accuracy is crucial for the reliable operation of sophisticated military electronics.
Rated output power: 320W
With a rated output power of 320W, the DC-DC power supplies can handle substantial power loads, making them suitable for powering various electronic systems within military vehicles.
Rated output current: 26.67A
The converter delivers a rated output current of 26.67A, providing ample current to support multiple devices and systems simultaneously.
Output current limit: 103-135% (Typically 115%)
The output current limit ranges from 103% to 135%, typically set at 115%, offering protection against overcurrent conditions. This feature safeguards both the DC-DC converter and the connected devices from potential damage due to excessive current.
