TDK Announces Industrial Power Supply Series With Optional Push-In Wire Terminations
December 13, 2024
News
TDK Corporation announced push-in wire terminations for models in the high-reliability, TDK-Lambda HWS-A family of AC-DC power supplies.
The HWS-A/E models have vertical or horizontal-orientated terminals, simplifying cable harnessing. Designed to automate manufacturing processes, the HWS-A/E models are both time and cost-effective. The terminal levers enable the insertion of wires and ferrules without the need for tools, and unlike screw terminal blocks, no torque requirements or routine testing is required.
The HWS-A/E series accepts an 85 to 265Vac input, withstanding a peak voltage of 300Vac for 5 seconds. The push-in terminal options are available for 12, 15, 24, and 48V outputs and 50, 100, and 150W rated models. All models are certified to IEC / EN / UL / CSA 62368-1, IEC / EN 62477-1 (OVC III), and UL 508, with CE and UKCA marking to the Low Voltage, EMC, and RoHS Directives.
The TDK-Lambda HWS series provides a limited lifetime warranty. Per the company, conservative component ratings and temperatures, including the electrolytic capacitors, ensure long operating field life.
