VTC300 Series DC/DC Converter

BENEFITS

  • Ultra-Quiet
  • Power sensitive electronics without interference
  • Rugged & Reliable
  • Ensure years of safe and trouble free operation

This all new single board design incorporates state of the art switchmode technology for unmatched efficiency and ultra-quiet operation.

Multiple stages of filtering reduce radiated or conducted noise to very low levels. Extra features include adjustable output voltage, audible and visual indicators for low input voltage, low output voltage, over temperature and overload.

Safety features include reverse input protection, over-temperature shutdown, current limiting, short circuit shutdown, a dry contact alarm relay output and output overvoltage crowbar. Optional features include a remote panel monitoring with On-Off control.

We are confident that you will get many years of reliable service from this Voltage Converter.
