July 26, 2017 by Paul Shepard

CUI’s Power Group today announced the addition of a new line of wall plug-in power adapters to its portfolio of external medical power supplies. The SWM6, SWM6‑USB, SWM12, and SWM30 series, available with either North American or European input blades, are all certified to the medical 60601-1 edition 3.1 safety standards for 2 x MOPP applications and 4th edition EMC requirements.

Featuring high efficiency, class II construction, and no-load power consumption as low as 0.075W, these ac-dc power supplies are a continuation of CUI’s initiative to provide customers with the most efficient global power solutions for medical, dental, and home healthcare equipment.

The compact 6W, 12W, and 30W wall plug adapters all feature a wide universal input voltage range of 90- to 264-Vac and input-to-output isolation of 4,000Vac, with output voltage options from 5Vdc to 48Vdc, depending upon the series.

The SWM6, SWM6‑USB, and SWM12 series offer horizontal and vertical blade orientations, while the SWM6‑USB series also incorporates an integrated USB connector. Protections for over voltage, over current, and short circuit are included for all models as well as a range of dc output connector options.

Models with input blades for North American applications carry medical UL/cUL 60601-1 safety certifications and meet FCC Part 15B Class B limits for EMI/EMC, while models with European input blades carry medical TUV EN 60601-1 safety approvals and bear the CE mark.

The SWM6, SWM6‑USB, SWM12, and SWM30 series are available immediately with prices starting at $8.31 per unit at 500 pieces through distribution.
