ADM Instrument Engineering DIN rail power supply
19 March, 2008 | Supplied by: ADM Instrument Engineering Group
ADM Instrument Engineering has introduced the Meanwell DR100 100 W power supply. A DIN rail-mount power supply, that will fit into a fuse box type enclosure, with Class II insulation level (double insulated, no earth wire is required), the DR-100 series provides a plastic case that is free from hazardous leakage current and is up to 89% efficient.It has an input voltage range of 88-264 VAC and 124-370 VDC. The output voltages are 12, 15 and 24 VDC at 100 W. To compensate for wiring voltage drops, the output voltage can be adjusted from the front panel, and the coloured LED indicator also gives an immediate visual conformation of the DC output status.
