Original Press Release:
“Quiet by Design� Low Acoustic Noise 1U High Modular Power Supply Delivers up to 800W with BF-Ready Medical Isolation
TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) announces the introduction of the TDK-Lambda brand MU4 series of 1U high power supplies. Featuring very low acoustic noise and BF-ready medical isolation, the MU4 can provide 600W with an input of 85 to 264Vac (derate below 90Vac) and 800W with a 180 to 264Vac input. Up to five fully isolated output voltages can be easily configured using TDK-Lambda’s on-line quick product finder. Target applications include medical, dental, broadcast, professional audio, test and measurement, and industrial equipment requiring a low 41mm height and/or low audible noise.
A patented intelligent fan speed control circuit uses a microcontroller algorithm to monitor the temperature of the primary converter and each individual secondary module. This enables the speed of the fan to be accurately adjusted and optimized to provide an audible noise as low as 36dBA, even with an 80% load. A low noise level improves patient comfort and reduces operator fatigue.
Initially nine 150W to 400W rated output modules are available, providing continuous coverage from 3.3V to 104Vdc. Each module includes remote on/off, remote sense and an output good signal as standard. Options for the MU4 include a 5V / 2A standby voltage, fan fail signal, inhibit and enable for all outputs, AC fail, PMBus™ communication and current share for configurations requiring parallel operation.
The product has efficiencies of up to 90% and will operate in ambient temperatures of -20°C to +70°C, derating linearly to 50% load above 50°C. The earth leakage current is less than 300µA - including all tolerances, and the touch current is <100µA. The size is a compact 89 x 41 x 257.5mm, 3.5 x 1.61 x 10.1 inches, (W x H x D). A seven-year warranty is provided as standard.
The MU4 series has an input to output isolation of 4,000Vac (2 x MoPP), an input to earth isolation of 1,500Vac (1 x MoPP), and an output to earth isolation of 1,500Vac (1 x MoPP) for suitability in B and BF rated medical equipment. Safety certification is to IEC/EN 60601-1, ES 60601-1. IEC/EN/CSA/UL 62368-1, (IEC/EN 61010-1 designed to meet) and is CE / UKCA marked to the Low Voltage, EMC and RoHS EU Directives and UK regulations. The models meet EN 55011-B, EN 55032-B radiated and conducted emissions and comply with the EN 60601-1-2:2015 (Edition 4) and EN 61000-4 immunity standards.
