The New DC DC Converters for Railway Applications

The new generation DC DC boost Converter with wide input range and power levels up to 240 W has high efficiency. It is applicable for railway transportation applications. The voltage converter has a variety of new services. The rail systems require monitoring and control capabilities. That is why the railway industry demands reliable and high-performance power systems for the safety and security. The linear converter which is isolated and regulated can operate a wide range input to generate the isolated DC output. The new series of the power system is designed by the multiple input voltage ranges. It has the efficiency of 93%.

Rail applications demand the equipment which can operate in harsh climatic environments. The railway dc dc converters, which are isolated, fulfill this demand to provide the facilities from lighting to passenger information and to control the railway system. Not only this, it gives safety of the engine systems. This inductor-based switcher performs safely and reliably.
The Australian companies developed the DC DC controller according to the rail standards. They have generated many models that come up with minimal costs. The main function of this boost converter is that it can convert any DC voltage to any DC voltage with 10 mV resolution. In such a case, the output current is limited to 10A, and the input current is limited to 12A.

• Features of DC DC voltage converter:

1. The new series of voltage converter has 45-154 Vdc input to supply 24Vdc.

2. This converter has high resistance and wide input voltage range. This converter is used in rolling-stock power sources.

3. It has high efficiency and low thermal stress. That is why this converter provides high reliability and long-lasting performance. This converter has short-circuited protection like the automotive AC DC Power Converters.

4. It has different input and output connectors. Along with this, it has input polarity reversal protection.

5. It has the high tolerance of input ripple and has input overvoltage lockout. It has remote ON/OFF control feature and has output sensing.

6. It has output overload protection and output overvoltage protection. This converter maintains the constant output voltage to set the
current limit. When the current limit is exceeded, this converter switches to the constant output current mode.

7. The new series converter uses the integral heatsink and natural convection cooling. That is why it does not need any additional heatsinking such as the cool plate.

8. The industrial standard converter operates the temperature range -40degrees centigrade to +95 degrees centigrade. Along with this, railway dc dc converters are encapsulated with the metal case with the isolated base plate.

Apart from the railway industry, this linear converter is used in information technology, medical industry, and various industrial applications, subway, metro transit systems, bus, wireless network and so on. This converter is specially designed for the backup power systems, train operation monitor, gate controller and other systems of the railway.

The new series of converters protects you from any fire incident. It provides the safety in your system. In addition, this converter protects from –

• Shock and vibration
• Under voltage
• Overvoltage
• Short-circuit
• Overload

This switching regulator gives you internal noise solutions which deliver clean signals. This converter is protected from moisture, dust, vibration, and heat. It can be cooled without any air cooling tools. The above features make this converter ideal for railway applications.

The designers have been looking to generate the more new series of the inductor-based switcher. They are busy to inventing these converters to provide low voltage DC outputs as well as high-efficiency. The manufactures companies in Australia offer many suitable and light-weight DC DC controllers to fulfill the needs of railway applications. This tiny converter removes the risk of probable accidents. You just need to follow some basic rules when you use this converter after installing in the railway applications.
