XP Power has announced the launch of the single-output AFM series of 48 and 60W external AC/DC power supplies designed for a range of IT and medical equipment. The ranges offer output voltages of 12, 15, 18 and 24V DC.
Offering a typical efficiency of up to 88%, these units meet the energy efficiency standards such as Energy Star Level V, EISA2007 and CEC2008 in the United States and the ErP Directive for Europe. These standards define the average energy efficiency and the maximum no load power consumption. The AFM45 has a no load power consumption of less than 0.3W, and the AFM60 less than 0.5W.
The AFM series comply with the internationally recognsed safety approval standards for IT and commercial equipment IEC60950-1 / UL60950-1 / EN60950-1. They also comply with the IEC60601-1 / UL60601-1 / EN60601-1 medical safety standards. The units offer multiple input cable interface options allowing designers to specify either IEC320-C14, -C6 or -C8 connectors. The -C8 option provides a Class II grounding method. An optional cable restraining clip is also available.
