Wondering how to step down your voltage supply? This DC-DC converter from RECOM is the solution. The compact unit takes an input voltage ranging from 18 to 36V DC and converts it to a 5V DC output, which is ideal for running telecoms equipment and industrial devices. Isolation stops power surges from catching you off-guard by providing an electrical barrier between your input and output. This helps to prevent damage to your system and protects you against electric shocks. You can count on this converter's stable performance in harsh environments, as it holds its own when faced with vibration and extremes of temperature.

• Efficiency of 89%, meaning minimal power is lost in the switching process
• High power rating of 40W to meet the needs of demanding systems
• Start-up time of 25ms, so reacts swiftly to keep electrical circuits running smoothly
• Automatically recovers after a short-circuit, so there's no need for manual intervention

• Industrial data and control centres
• Military equipment
• Rail industry

Yes, this DC-DC converter is encased in flame-retardant epoxy. As a result, there's no chance of it igniting in a fire.
