CANBus Power Supplies

There are many applications where it is desirable to vary the output of a power supply, as part of an automated process.

 

MEAN WELL offers the NCP-3200 series rack mount power supplies that can be remotely controlled from a PLC, or other type of controller by applying an external voltage. They also offer CANBus support, allowing them to be integrated into a higher-level control system.

With the NCP-3200 you enjoy the advantages of the following features:

  • Built-in multi-stage battery charger
  • Current sharing function
  • Remote on / off and adjustment
  • CANBus support
  • Built-in alarm signals
  • High power density & efficiency
  • High reliability

MULTI-STAGE BATTERY CHARGER

With integrated 2-stage and 3-stage charging curves, the NCP-3200 can charge most battery types, including lithium-ion batteries.

CONNECTING IN PARALLEL

The NCP-3200 feature a current sharing function, which allows you to connect up to 40 units in parallel (10 racks x 4 units) to deliver a higher power output.

REMOTE ADJUSTMENT OF VOLTAGE AND CURRENT OUTPUT

One of the most useful features of this power supply is the ability to vary the output voltage, or current by applying an external voltage.

Voltage can be adjusted within a range of 50% to 125% of the nominal output. Whereas, the current can be adjusted within a range of 20% to 100%.

CANBUS

The MEAN WELL NCP-3200 series power supplies offer CANBus support.

CANBus increases the compatibility with higher level control systems, so that the output parameters of the power supply can be varied throughout any process.

ALARM SIGNALS

The NCP-3200 series power supplies are well suited to system critical applications, where downtimes must be avoided at all costs.

TTL alarm signals are available to indicate the status of the DC output and to flag if the temperature of the unit exceeds 60°C.

HIGH POWER DENSITY & EFFICIENCY

The NCP-3200 is available with either a 24V, or 48V DC output. They deliver a high efficiency rating of up to 94.5% and because of their compact size, also give you a remarkably high-power density.

This means only the minimal amount of real estate is taken up by your power supply.

HIGH RELIABILITY

MEAN WELL has applied the latest design concepts to these new power supplies, which has resulted in a reduction in the number of components used.

Less components means less to fail. Combine this with the latest automated production techniques and you get a very reliable power supply.

So much so, that MEAN WELL offers a 5-year warranty right across the NCP-3200 range.
