The TEP 160WIR Series is a family of isolated high performance DC/DC converter modules with ultra-wide 4:1 input voltage ranges which come in a
rugged, sealed industry standard half brick package. A very high efficiency allows full power operation without forced air cooling at 25°C This temperature
can be increased to 40°C with optional mounted heatsink or up to 60°C when
mounted on an iron base plate. The very wide input voltage range and reverse
input voltage protection make these converters interesting solution for battery
operated systems. Typical applications are in telecom/datacom, industry control and railway systems for on board power distribution. These series is available in many optional designs on demand --> see options.
