5kW Switcher with 20-120% V-Adjust and 20-100% I-Adjust Ranges

September 02, 2014 by Jeff Shepard

PowerGate, recently acquired by Sager Electronics, announced the release of the new single-output Mean Well 5,000 Watt RST-5000 series of power supplies with wide range 3-phase ac input and outputs of 24-Vdc or 48-Vdc that are highly trimmable from 20-120% of rated voltage and 20-100% of rated current for extreme flexibility. The RST-5000 exploits a new generation circuit topology achieving high efficiency up to 91%.

Built-in parallel function satisfies higher power demands up to 15,000W (3 units in parallel) output. In addition, RST-5000 series provides two mechanisms for overload protection: “continuous constant current limiting” mode and “constant current limiting with delay shutdown after 5 seconds” mode for severe loads (for example, inductive load, capacitive load, battery charging, and so on.)

Other standard functions include remote sense, remote ON/OFF, 12V/0.1A auxiliary power, alarm signal, output (both relay contact and open collector) for AC fail, DC OK, fan fail and over temperature protection. International certifications include UL/cUL60950-1, TUV EN60950-1, and the CE Mark with compliance to EN55022 (CISPR22) Class A, EN61000-3-2,-3 emission standards. Engineering quantities are in stock now with production lead times of 10 weeks. Typical pricing for ten piece quantities is only $1,088.00.
