40 to 60 Watt DC-DC Converters

40 watts

12:1 Ultra Wide Input Range


DC-DC Converters for Railway Applications

OFQC40 Series isolated 40W single output DC-DC converters are available in two ultra-wide 12:1 input ranges of 9-75V and 14-160V DC to handle a variety of railway power systems. Each range offers output voltages of 5, 12, 15, 24, 28, 48 or 53V DC. The units come in an industry-standard quarter-brick footprint, and they feature efficiencies as high as 91 percent, up to 3000V AC isolation voltage, remote ON/OFF and low standby power. OFQC40 DC-DC converters come with over temperature, overcurrent, overvoltage, undervoltage and short circuit protections. The series meets EN 50155 and 45545-2 standards for railway applications, complies to RoHS and REACH, and it carries the CE Mark.
