- Can I use a dual output DC-DC converter to get a higher voltage single output?
Many low power DC-DC converter series offer 5V, 12V and 15V single and +/-12V and +/-15V dual output models. If a 24V single output is required, it…
- How to optimise the energy efficiency of medical equipment often left in standby
Essential medical equipment, such as blood pressure monitors and ultrasound devices, are often left in standby mode when not in use. The CUS100ME series single output 2″…
- Are CUS100ME AC-DC power supplies fully-approved for medical applications?
The CUS100ME series single output 2″ x 4″ 100W AC-DC power supplies have full medical approval. They have been designed for use in demanding medical and…
- What are the levels of leakage current and EMI for CUS100ME medical power supplies?
The CUS100ME series single output 2″ x 4″ 100W AC-DC power supplies bring reliable power to applications that require silent operation with no fan noise. This…
- How is the audible noise level of a QM medical power supply measured?
In accordance with BS EN ISO 3744:2010, a set of sound pressure measurements has been taken on a hemispherical measurement surface set at a 1m radius from…
- Why do QM power supply modules have a narrow output voltage adjustment range?
By offering a narrow output voltage adjustment on our QM power supply modules, we have optimised its design for both cost and efficiency. For example, consider a…
- How do the size and weight of the Genesys+™ compare to its predecessor?
The 5kW Genesys+™ 1U high (44mm) programmable power supply is half the height of the previous generation 5kW Genesys™ 2U (88mm) models, freeing up valuable enclosure space.…
- What makes the QM7 medical power supply range so quiet?
A number of design features help make the QM7 operate quietly, improving the user and patient experience of the medical system. With efficiency levels of up to…
- GENESYS+™ – Isolated analogue control
Isolating analogue control lines on programmable power supplies avoids common mode noise issues, improves accuracy and simplifies any potential ground loops. A test system may operate perfectly…
- What are the key medical compliance features of QM AC-DC power supplies?
Designed as a medical power supply, the QM has an earth leakage of less than 300µA and touch current of <100µA. Even with such low earth leakage,…
