2U Rack-Mount Power System with Hot-Pluggable 1kW Modules



ABSOPULSE Electronics – BAP 3K-CR2U/19-3 Series modular, rack-mount dc/dc power conversion system delivers 3kW or 2kW with N+1 redundancy. The series is suitable for power utilities, industrial control and telecommunication applications.



The BAP 3K-CR2U/19-3 is built with three heavy-duty 1kW BAP 65F dc/dc modules assembled on a 2U x 19" rack-mount cradle. The cradle is constructed with high-grade stainless steel and mechanical features that allow for easy insertion of the converter modules. Each converter is equipped with connectors that allow hot-pluggability and enable the insertion or removal of modules without powering down the system. No motherboard is required, contributing to the cost-effectiveness of the design.



Each 1kW module accepts a nominal input of 48Vdc, 72Vdc, 110Vdc, 125Vdc or 250Vdc and is available in several output configurations including 24V/40A, 48V/20A or 125Vdc/8A. Customer specified input and output voltages are also available. A built-in redundancy diode allows for parallel connection to increase current available to the load and for N+1 redundant operation. They are each equipped with an output fail alarm with Form C contacts and a diagnostic output ON LED. Each unit has a high quality built-in fan which provides sufficient airflow for operation at 0‹C to 50‹C temperature range without de-rating.



The converter modules typically deliver efficiencies of 90% at full load. Output regulation is ±1.5% combined across all input line and load conditions. Protection features include 2250Vdc input to output isolation, output current limiting with short-circuit protection and thermal shutdown with self-resetting. The modules comply with EN/UL60950-1 and equivalent industrial safety standards.
