New Power System from Eltek Valere Triples Power Output for Industrial Applications.


Compact 130V DC Power System Offers up to 50 Amps of Power in Only Two Rack Units A unit of measurement of the height of a rack-mounted device. One rack unit, or RU, is 1.75". See rack mounted.  of Space

RICHARDSON, Texas Richardson is a suburb in Dallas County and Collin County, Texas. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 91,803, while according to a 2006 estimate, the population had grown to 99,200.  -- Eltek Valere today announced the Compact 130V DC Power System, a breakthrough DC power system that brings small size and high efficiency to utility and industrial back-up power applications. The power system is only 2RU (rack units) high, but provides up to 50 amps of output current, up to triple the power levels of competing systems.

The solution is ideal for applications where a reliable 130V DC power source is critical, such as materials processing Articles on Materials processing include:
  • process (engineering) a set of transformations of input elements into products
  • industrial process, a procedure involving chemical or mechanical steps to aid in the manufacture of an item or items
, utility switching, construction sites, mining locations and water and waste treatment sites. With its 92% power conversion efficiency and -40xC to +65xC operating range, the Compact 130V DC Power System emits 35% less waste heat and is an ideal power solution for demanding environments.

"The innovation built into the Compact 130V DC Power System has been field tested in rugged telecom applications, and is now ready to provide the same size, control and efficiency benefits to remote industrial sites," said Al Cioffi, Eltek Valere vice president of business development. "This product is the first in an expanded effort by Eltek Valere to target the industrial/utility market, so customers can expect more innovation in the coming year."

The base power shelf has room for up to five Eltek Valere L Series rectifiers, which offer 10 Amps output each. Up to two power shelves may be integrated with a distribution panel to create a high power solution using common components. The scalability of the system allows it to grow with the needs of the remote site - without requiring expensive retrofits or additional space.

The system offers distribution options including bulk termination, circuit breakers Circuit breakers
