The EC7BW18-72 20-Watt DC-DC Converter Series

Super wide-input, board-mount 20-Watt DC-DC Converters from Cincon

Relec Electronics and their partners at Cincon are proud to announce the release of the ultra-wide input range EC7BW18-72 20-Watt DC-DC Converter Series.  The EC7BW18-72 has an input range of 8.5 – 160V DC in one single range, making it suitable for all common battery voltages from a single 12V battery through to 110V systems.

The EC7BW18-72 has been designed primarily for the Railway Sector as a one size fits all solution for diesel sprinters (24V), London Underground (52V), freight locos (72V) and electric mainline (110V) trains.  The units will also work with 12V batteries making them suitable for use in the automotive sector.

The EC7BW18-72 20-Watt DC-DC Converter series has been qualified in accordance with the following regulatory requirements:

Additionally, the wide input range means the units meet the requirements of RIA12 Surge A on 24V and 52V systems (3.5 x Vi nom 20mS).

High efficiency up to 90%, allows for a case operating temperature range of –40°C to 105°C. An optional heat sink is available to extend the full power range of the unit. The EC7BW18-72 also has very low no-load power consumption (8mA), making it an ideal solution for energy-critical systems.

Standard control functions include remote on/off (positive or negative) and +15%, -20% adjustable output voltage (single output only). Units are fully protected against input UVLO (under-voltage lockout), output over-current, output over-voltage, and over-temperature and continuous short circuit conditions.

The EC7BW is available to sample now with production lead-times currently 6 – 8 weeks. The technical team at Relec are available now to guide you through the design-in process, provide samples, and provide commercial support right through into production.
