VTC1000R Series DC/DC Converter
- Ultra-Quiet
- Power sensitive electronics without interference
- Rugged & Reliable
- Ensure years of safe and trouble free operation


The model VTC1000R Rackmount Voltage Converter supplies 12V, 24V or 48 VDC from a 110V, 250V or 300 VDC power source. Other input or output voltages up to 72 volts are also available by special order.
All new Current Mode switching design offers increased power and reliability in a compact package. Extra input and output filtering reduce EMI to extremely low levels. Reliability features include an input fuse, thermal shutdown, current limiting, reverse battery hookup protection and output short circuit shutdown with automatic recovery. The output voltage is easily adjusted 1.0 volts above or below the standard output voltage. Devices connected to the converter are protected by an output overvoltage crowbar circuit.
All rackmount units come standard with High quality digital output meters to allow monitoring of output current and output voltage. An optional Battery Back-up is also available.
