Compact 30-watt power supply gains medical approvals

BEAR's encapsulated power module features high reliability, long life, and wide operating temperature range for use in compact medical instruments without fans or vents

April 4, 2007 - Phelps, NY – BEAR Power Supplies' compact 30-watt AC/DC power converter has been approved for use in medical electrical equipment. The power supply recently passed TUV testing to meet UL 2601-1, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No.601.1-M90 and IEC 601-1 requirements, BEAR announced today.

The single-output encapsulated modules are available with a range of output voltages from 3.3 V to 48 V. They feature low leakage current of 0.5 mA (max) and operating temperature range to +70 degrees C. This makes them suited for long-term use in enclosed, compact medical instruments without fans or vents.

The 30-watt power supplies measure approximately 2.5 x 4 x 1 inches and are available in PCB-mountable, chassis-mountable and DIN-rail packages. A unique mini-IEC input connector and detachable line cord on most models improves convenience and safety by eliminating exposed high voltage traces from the system designer’s printed circuit board. Drawings and complete specifications are found at http://www.bearpwr.com/opspecs.shtml.

Standard 30-watt medical power supplies are available from stock starting as low as $52 each in volume. BEAR also specializes in custom power supply design and manufacturing for medical OEMs.
