CUI Inc. announces a 600 W addition to their line of rugged chassis mount dc-dc converters. The VFK600 series measures 7.8" x 5.0" x 1.5" and includes an integrated heat sink for improved thermal performance. The aluminum heat sink allows the unit to operate at higher temperatures with a minimal amount of air flow.
The VFK600 series accepts a 2:1 input voltage range, supporting either 18-36 Vdc or 36-75 Vdc input voltages. For higher power requirements, the isolated converters feature active current sharing up to 1200 W and support N+1 redundancy operation. The VFK600 is offered in five different regulated output voltage versions: 12, 24, 28, 32 and 48 Vdc. Efficiency up to 92%, fast response, tight regulation, remote sense and remote on/off control make these converters useful in a range industrial, communications, and transportation applications.
Additional features include under-voltage, over-temperature, over-current, over-voltage, and input transient voltage protection. The VFK600 series is available through Digi-Key at $356.10 for 25 pcs. Contact CUI directly for OEM pricing.
