Schaefer: Liquid-cooled power systems

Schaefer Inc. has announced the addition of the CPW-5700 Series (AC-DC) and BPW-5700 Series (Battery Charger) to its Heavy Industrial/Military COTS/MOTS (20KW to 30KW) Power Series. Designed for projects that demand robust and shock-resistant power supplies in the harshest operating conditions (Mil-Std-901D/Mil-Std-810). Some of these applications include, but are not limited to, COTS military systems, industrial automation, fiber laser, communications, radar/sonar, oil/gas, utility, alternative energy and rail.

The CPW/BPW 5700 Series offers three-phase, wide input ranges for 200/400/440 and 480VAC and selectable output voltages and currents (full range). Key features include Power Factor Correction (PFC/Mil-Std-1399/ under 3 percent THDi), remote on/off, full galvanic isolation, ultra-wide operating temperature range of minus-40 degrees C to plus-75 degrees C, and high power-density and compliance to EMC/Mil Standard (MIL-STD-461), as well as a full complement of protection/alarm signals such as over temperature, over current and over voltage. The CPW/BPW 5700 Series can be configured as a AC-DC power supply/source or full battery charging capability that’s liquid cooled and highly rugged along with easy integration via 19-inch design or modules that makes the series ideal for mission critical applications.
