Schaefer Announces New 5kW Pure Sine Wave Inverter

Power Channels: Power Components

Schaefer, Inc. introduced the AEP-5000 Series of 5000W, rugged, high efficiency, pure sine wave inverters. The "clean" pure sine wave output of the AEP-5000 Series, with less than 3% total harmonic distortion, is ideal for powering sensitive loads and for improving ac equipment performance.

The AEP-5000 Series is available in four standard input configurations of 24Vdc, 48Vdc, and the less frequently found 110 or 220Vdc input voltages. Outputs are available in regulated 115 or 230Vac (50/60Hz) versions.

All models in the AEP-5000 Series feature a wide operating temperature of -30 to +50°C, comprehensive protection circuitry, and a digital display to monitor/indicate low input voltage, short circuit, input overvoltage, over temperature, overload and low battery. The display also indicates voltage, amperage, power and temperature. Efficiency is up to 94%, depending upon the model selected. EMI is minimized to Class B standards for reduced impact on other equipment.

The design is rugged and well suited for industrial, utility, military, rail/transit, satellite, computer, vehicle/mobile, marine and general backup power applications. The compact module size of 5.5 x 12.75 x 19.5" provides an remarkable 5000W of power, while still accommodating space constrained installations. According to the company, the simple mounting scheme and high reliability lend to the low cost of ownership.

The AEP-5000 Series is part of the full line of rugged, pure sine wave inverters from Schaefer, which includes stand-alone solutions from 700W-5000W and rack mount configurations. Modifications to standard products are available upon request. In addition, Schaefer can design and manufacture full custom solutions. Delivery is stock to 8 weeks ARO.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
