With two new models BEO-0812 (+12V) and BEO-0824 (+24V) presented, the power supply specialist Bicker Elektronik (Donauwoerth/Germany) is expanding its AC/DC switching power supply series BEO by power class 80 Watt fanless for contact cooling in the space-saving form factor 2×4″. With forced air cooling, up to 150 Watt continuous power is available. The BEO-0800 series is also characterized by its high efficiency of up to 91% and low standby consumption <0.48 W. The rugged and reliable industrial power supplies have a wide-range input of 90 to 264 VAC with active power factor correction (PFC) for worldwide use and are certified to IEC/EN/UL62368-1. Due to the very good electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the BEO-0800 series meets the stricter class B of EN55032. The high quality of the components used and the excellent circuit design ensure a long service life and safe 24/7 continuous operation in the extended temperature range of -20…+70°C.
Conduction cooling for fanless systems
For optimum thermal connection of the power components on PCB bottom side to chassis of the application, BEO-0800 series already includes a suitable thermal pad. Due to ideal heat conduction properties and the flexible pad surface, the pre-assembled thermally conductive gap filler creates an optimal connection between the power components and the connected housing chassis, so that no active cooling is necessary. Due to the very good thermal management, the heating of the switched-mode power supplies are reduced to a minimum, making maintenance-free systems without rotating fans possible. The already included insulation foil has a precisely fitting opening for the thermal pad.
High power density for a variety of applications
The BEO-0800 series combines high energy efficiency across the entire performance range with the compactness of a robust 2×4″ industrial PSU. The switching power supplies can be used up to an operating height of 5000 meters and have short-circuit and overcurrent protection. The insulation voltage between input and output is 4000 VDC. The space-saving BEO-0800 series is suitable for a large number of fanless industrial applications and embedded IPC systems with single voltage supply: Industry 4.0 / IIoT, automation, process measuring and control technology, energy, communication, POS / POI, digital signage, and many more.
Genuine accessories
The 3-pin AC input line CB-105-3-600 or the 2-pin AC input line X1-054 are available as optional accessories for AC input mains connection, and the 4-pin DC output line CB-BEO-0800 on the DC output side – each made in AWG18 with a length of 600 mm and open ends.
Extensive value-added services
In addition to the three-year device guarantee, Bicker Elektronik GmbH offers long-term availability of at least 5 years. In particular Long-running applications benefit from optimal investment protection. The project-related and individual design-in advice is rounded off by first-class service and support from Germany. Upon request, the R&D engineers at Bicker Elektronik can also implement customer-specific special solutions. Bicker Elektronik’s offer also includes extensive laboratory and measurement services for complete customer systems as well as performance profile analyzes for the exact dimensioning of the power supply.
