All BXF200/250 models offer a wide range of standard features, including short-circuit, over-voltage and over-temperature protection, which safeguard expensive circuitry and ensure reliable operation. The modules also include wide trim capability, remote sensing and remote on/off.

The BXF200/250 has a 1,500Vdc isolation rating and carries full international safety approval. Samples of the BXF200 and BXF250 are available from stock with 16-week lead times for production orders, and sell for $140.00 and $143.00 each, respectively, when purchased in quantities of 500.
