The VET18, VET24, VET30, and VET36 models boast very high efficiency, up to 87%, measured at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% load. Therefore, they meet the requirements of the U.S. Department of State (DoE) and the European Union's Code of Conduct (CoC) 1er 2. These standards set limits on average energy efficiency and no-load power consumption. The new requirements stipulate consumption below 0.075W for power output levels of 6 to 36W. All VET series models meet this requirement, consuming less than 0.075W. This means less power is consumed when the device is off, in standby mode, or when no load is connected.
All four VET series offer 12, 15, 18, and 24VDC outputs, which are the most common in most applications. Additionally, the VET18 model includes a 9VDC output.
Capable of operating in a temperature range of 0 to +60°C, with full power available up to +40°C (+45°C with no power limitation in the case of the VET36), the VET models can work in most environments.
They also comply with the ITE 60950-1 electrical safety standard and meet Class B levels for radiated and conducted emissions. This family of adapters is part of XP Power's low-cost V series, offering more economical prices for cost-sensitive applications.
The input connector is IEC type. The output connector is a standard 2.5mm x 5.5mm jack.
These series can work in many sectors such as automation, process control, broadcast, telecom, instrumentation, network/data center/control equipment, mobile communications and special equipment.
Compared to competitors, XP Power's VET 18, VET24, VET30, and VET36 are better priced and available now. In addition to meeting energy efficiency requirements, the VET models require less energy when in standby mode, thus reducing their environmental impact and saving money on energy costs.
The VET18, 24, 30 and 36 series are available in Spain and Portugal through the local specialist distributor VENCO Electrónica SA as well as through Farnell, element14, and Digikey and include a 3-year warranty.
