Small modular 600W and 1200W configurable power supplies
FiDUS Power has launched two modular 600W and 1200W configurable power supplies with medical variants.
Both sizes of the NEVO configurable power supplies are available with the latest in medical safety approvals for safety EN/IEC/ANSI 60601-1 and EMC immunity EN60601-1-2 4th edition and comply with EN55022 level B EMC Standards. Applications include medical and diagnostic devices, medical robotics, dialysis / peristaltic pumps, bench top laboratory and analysis equipment, laser power, operating theatre lighting, incubators, display applications, telecommunications and retrofit of legacy power multi output supplies.
The 600W output NEVO+600 meaures 5 x 3 x 1.61in and the NEVO+1200 measures 6 x 6 x 1.61in with 1200W. The units fit into a 1U enclosure with robust enclosed mechanics. Both models have ITE and medical variants with analogue current and voltage programming, analogue current output signal, 5V bias supply (one per card, one per 600W chassis and two on the 1200 chassis), global / local inhibit, AC OK and DC OK power good signals.
Accurate current sharing across multiple modules is a standard feature enabling them to be used in the most demanding applications where a large output current of up to 100A is required. Outputs can also easily be configured in series to support applications requiring high voltages of up to 240VDC. The configurable power supplies use an integrated fan with a low noise option for sound sensitive applications and controls that provides thermal versatility and orientation flexibility.
The NEVO+600 can be populated with 4 isolated configurable power modules while the NEVO+1200 permits up to 8. The modules may be factory configured or adjusted by the end user in situ. Five single output modules are available with voltages over the nominal range 5 to 48VDC, adjustable from a minimum of 1.5 to a maximum of 58V depending on module. Two of the card modules offer isolated 75W dual outputs; nominal 12V (3.3-15V) and 24V (23.2-24.7V).
Both configurable power supplies have low standby power consumption, efficiency up to 89 per cent and an operating temperature range of – 20 to +70⁰C.
“The front ends and the cards all have their own approvals, so unlike some of our competitors changes can be made on the fly by the customer and samples can be made and delivered in less than a week from the lab in Aldermaston,” said Mark Gibbons, Engineering Manager at FiDUS Power.
As with most FiDUS power supplies, 3D drawings are available for integration and engineering samples can be delivered from stock on short lead-times, and all models are backed by the company’s five year warranty.
