Schroff has expanded its 19in Maxpower Pro range of switched-mode power supplies with the addition of a 6U model designed for high-power Compact PCI applications.

Featuring an output of 500W, the 13100-145 power supply operates from an input voltage range of 90 to 264V AC with PFC and delivers output voltages of 5, 3.3, 12 and -12V.

Featuring an output of 500W, the new 13100-145 power supply operates from a wide input voltage range of 90 to 264V AC with PFC and delivers output voltages of 5V, 3.3V, 12V and -12V.

As well as incorporating a P47 connector conforming to the PICMG 2.11 Compact PCI specification, the PSU provides the high levels of reliability demanded by typical Compact PCI applications in the communications, industrial, military and aerospace sectors.

Inputs are protected against voltage transients and high-inrush currents, outputs are protected against open-circuit and short-circuit conditions, and the power supply includes over-temperature protection.

The unit is hot-swap capable and active current sharing is provided on three of the outputs for parallel operation of multiple units in n+1 redundant designs or in systems requiring a higher output power.

Measuring 6U high by 8HP wide by 172mm deep, the PSU is supplied with an EMC seal and a 19in front panel, including handles.

It achieves a typical efficiency of 84 per cent and meets the requirements of the relevant standards covering safety, EMC and mechanical stress.
