Plug-in dc modules optimized for reactive loads

The XgR and XgT powerMod reactive load series of plug-in dc-output modules are optimized for driving dc motors and other reactive loads. They provide protection for industrial and medical systems with combinations of inductive and capacitive loads. Typical applications clinical diagnostic equipment, medical lasers, dialysis equipment, radiological imaging, and industrial machines, automation equipment, printing, telecommunications, audio equipment, hi-rel/MIL COTS, and radar.

The dc-output modules offer design engineers system robustness and reliability by providing protection where loads can generate high levels of reverse energy. The modules come equipped with a built-in OR-ing function and an anti-reversal diode. The OR-ing circuit, utilizing a MOSFET to maintain high efficiency, offers N+1 redundancy to the user when the powerMods are used in parallel operation. The modules deliver output voltages from 8.0 to 58 V. They provide a suite of output signals and user-configurable functions, including local and remote output voltage adjustment; adjustable current limit; dynamic voltage trim/adjust, alternative current-limiting techniques; and inhibit/enable functions.
