For years now, TME has been offering products manufactured by renowned Swiss Traco Electronic AG, marketed under the Traco Power brand. The brand’s product range is extensive, with AC/DC converters being one of the most relevant product groups.
Traco Power is an internationally renowned power supply unit brand providing high-quality AC/DC and DC/DC conversion units. The mainstay of the Traco Power range are high-power converters, DIN-mounted AC/DC power supply units and open-design units, provided in power ranges from 15 to as much as 1000 W, as well as DC/DC converters up to 300 W, and modular AC/DC converters in enclosures of up to 100 W. These products are used in sectors such as e.g. IT, industry, automation and control, rail transport, medicine and energy distribution.
AC/DC converters with the voltage of 90–305 V AC and 120–370 V DC – for PCB and panel mounting.
This Traco Power product group includes 101 items, 89 of which are designed for PCB mounting and the other 12 are intended for panel mounting (two TPP series labelled as E-J). Their operating temperature range is (after slight averaging) from -40°C to +85°C, while the insulation voltage is in the range from 3000 to 4200 V. Depending on the model and series, the output voltage values are: 3.3, 5, 9, 12, 15, 24, 36 and 48 V DC. The Traco Power product offering is divided into nine product series:
TMG series of AC/DC power supply units
They are delivered in hermetically sealed plastic packaging and are very compact and energy-efficient. Integration of high-quality components makes the units suitable for operation in temperatures from -40°C to +70°C. Their low power consumption rating (no-load) makes them suitable for applications that comply with the ErP Directive. The units in the TMG come with short-circuit and overvoltage protection. The EMI/EMC characteristics and a range of safety approvals qualify them to support industrial or commercial equipment in demanding applications. Their main technical specifications include a fully hermetic design (plastic housing), PCB mounting capability, low output current ripple and noise, fully adjustable outputs, 4242 V DC input/output insulation, efficiency up to 90%, universal input range (90 to 264 V AC), operating temperatures from -25°C to +70°C, safety class II, short-circuit and overvoltage protection.
