DC-DC converters: Essential building blocks
In most electrical systems both 24 VDC and 12 VDC equipment is used. WhisperPower Switched Mode DC-DC converters take a particular voltage, for example 24 VDC, and convert it in to another DC voltage, for example 12 VDC. The Switched Mode technology ensures minimal energy loss and high output. Our range is based on three different topologies:
MC – Series
• DC-DC converters with common negative
• Step down from 24 VDC to 12 VDC
• Electronic process, high efficiency, low heat output
• Power rating up to 30 A
• Cannot be used in parallel
MCC – series
• DC-DC converter with current limitation • Designed to convert 24 VDC to 12 VDC and to charge 12 V batteries
• Multi step charge characteristics, programmable
• Delivered with temperature sensor as standard
• Can be used as dimming device for DC lighting
MG – series
• DC-DC converters with galvanic isolation • Step down from 24 VDC or 48 VDC to 12 VDC
• Step up from 12 VDC to 24 VDC is also possible
• Electronic process, high efficiency, low heat output
• Power rating up to 30 A
• Can be run in parallel for high-demand appliance
